Any other differences from a production unit?

So what I thought was a junker 512k might be a prototype. I started to strip it for parts, but I noticed some weird things. For starters, both the bucket and the bezel stickers a…

Have you considered taking the 575 components and mounting them in a custom case? That way you can make the front flat to mount an LCD? Your woodworking buddy could probably make s…

Let me start off by saying I am not a computer guy......  So this is probably why no one has done this before.  They know it will not work!  I have working pull of a analog boa…

According to the Apple IIgs Technical Reference, the character ROM is stored in the Mega II chip, not the main ROM. The Mega II is also responsible for generating text screens on t…

No clue. Since they are two different brands maybe the driver software won't conflict with each other (if you run one at a time). Any reason you need 2 DOS cards in one machine?

Can it work? I have a Reply card in my Q800's PDS slot and I am seeing Orange DOS card on eBay (nubus) that will fit in my Mac.  Can 2 or more DOS card work together?

the guy who figured out the 640x480 mod, I have no idea how he figured it out. Maybe it came from an internal apple employee, or repair guy. Hard to say. 

@Gorgonops, ok thanks, will try that. I have another question about the ROM chip. it's a 128kx8, so it needs 17 lines of addresses in order to access the entire memory of the rom.…

Apple just did not make them public. They exist. The service guide is just for replacing parts - which is what is the most economical. The developer or technical notes may have mor…

Thanks to all for the help.  I am going to do the software patch and roll in a 575 board with 128MBs of RAM, a crystal upgrade, and a full 68040 (is this the correct one?) CPU.  I …

@Elfen, very good suggestion, I would try that for sure. However, with no drive connected , it stays on "Check status device" and a kind of bar run from left to right and right to…

Gez!  How can I or anyone figure out a *real* 640 X 480 mod for the Color Classic then?  I think if i understood the analog board, I could beef up some components and make a safe u…

I wonder if this is for all the characters in the ROM or just a segment of them? Boot it up without the disk drives attached so it goes into AppleSoft Basic. Then type the follow…

So, I am still chicken about doing the VGA mod to my Color Classic.  But I am OK doing the software mod that will let me put a over clocked 575 logic board in my Color Classic. So…

Hi... I need a schematic for a color classic analog board.  Where can I down load one or buy one? Thanks jack

Well it's hard to tell if it's the ROM chip or the Mega II. I also played around with the scope and followed the schematics, but I'm not able to pinpoint the root cause. Here they…

This happens if the ROM cant see the SWIM. grab the classic schematics and go throught it. Your not gonna see via corrosion AFTER you already washed it. You needed to take note of…

Thanks for the suggestion, I don't get a flashing ?, yet.  I removed the RAM card and it did not help, in a separate attempt, I removed the HD cable and the startup remains unchang…
