All, I got a new Purple ROM SIMM for my SE/30. I have quite some issues with that combination. The ROM SIMM itself works ok, as tested in a IIci. But apparently when inserted in that SE/30, the computer freezes at "welcome to Macintosh" and the boot process goes that far only if I manage to...

All, I have a recapped cache card for IIci, but that won't work. When inserted and powered up the computer chimes normally and then there is a three tone chime. Then is .. nothing. An audio file is attached for reference. I have read that there are plenty of issues with these cache cards. I...

I followed the instructions on http://mac-classic.com/articles/disabling-cpu-cores-on-a-multiprocessor-system/ Boot into Open Firmware (Command + Option + O + F during the boot process). To view the current boot-args settings, enter the following command:cr boot-args type crprintenv boot-args...

Update. Finally got a new display adapter and that has solved the distorted picture issue. I have now run this computer three days, most of it of course hibernated or power save mode, what ever it is called. I have also disabled one cpu in open firmware, and that may have solved the issue of...

Short update. New battery and pmu reset did not help. On the open firmware console the computer was usable quite long time, something like an hour. Booted then again with old dvd and got the same very distorted picture. This makes me think it might be the display adapter. edit: emu -> pmu. Thx...

I have some kind of more information on this. It seems to boot when it is cold, ie been powered off overnight. I even managed to boot from a G4 dvd until it froze. The image on the display was very distorted, and thus I suspect that the graphich adapter might be at fault. I guess the image...

What should the diode in this be like?

Anybody seen this Samsung DB15-VGA adapter? It has 9 dip switches, of which #9 is reserved. The computer is II ci with internal display adapter. I'm trying to get image to a supposedly good monitor, Acer AL1711 . The monitor claims to be Mac -compatible. See the table below. I've tried all...

Thanks @Glenn Anderson I have bid on an AAUI adapter. Fingers crossed. I'll drop my Cisco config here, in case it helps somebody. interface GigabitEthernet0/24 description "OLD MACINTOSH" switchport access vlan 700 switchport mode access switchport nonegotiate duplex half speed 10 no...

This is interesting. I have been struggling with this adapter a couple of evenings now. The only way to get it to get the link up was to to force the switch port to half duplex 10Mbps. And even then it takes ages on the switch end. Dayna tests, both hardware and software, claim the nic to be...
