[q] Micronet SCSI card drivers

2005-08-08 Thread Powermac
I asked a long time ago but will try again. Anybody happen to have drivers
for the Micronet NP-2 Nupro II Nubus SCSI card? Or maybe a manual for
setting up the jumper switches?

Thanks

Its been that way for a long time. The page hasn't been update since 2003 
around the time of his last post to a LEM list. The site is hosted by someone 
that doesn't mean its the author of the site though I wish it was. Neither 
Gamba or Bhavesh appear to maintain their excellent sites nor do they post on 
the lem lists (not the ones they used to). I hope I'm wrong about Bhavesh, I 
haven't seen his name around for some time.

cheers, oh setient, mirror the sites by all means, sadly you'd be a couple of 
years to late to have it all, on the upside some of us already have. :)

[q] Networking Issues (LC575 Comm Slot Ethernet card)

2005-07-02 Thread Chris Zantides

Hi folks,

I have just recently (thanks to help from this list) got this  
computer back up and running.


However, I'm having no luck getting it online - I have what appears  
to be a sonic-t comm slot ethernet card, running System 7.5.5. I did  
some research and it seems I'm not alone with this issue.


This article(http://lowendmac.com/macdan/02/0922dk.html) on LEM  
directed me to http://www.macdrivermuseum.com/network.shtml however  
that link no longer appears to be a Mac driver site.


So... I was hoping that someone had a copy of this driver or knew  
where one could be obtained.


Thanks for any help!


Take care,
Chris

The driver museum has moved about a bit in the last couple of years.
Post the name of the file you need if the site doesn't help.

The museum hasn't been updated almost as long as gamba's site,

Grab a few files (not the whole page/site) each time you visit so 
together we can supply files if the site disappears.


Have a poke around http://home.earthlink.net/~gamba2/ it's a little hard

[q]What's the best NuBus video card?

2004-02-12 Thread Tim Larson
I'm looking for a really nice card for my Q840AV, and found a page 
http://www.lowendmac.com/macdan/2k1010cl.html that I thought would 
answer my question, but the story has been removed.  So now I'm asking 
this list for advice, since I couldn't find it in the archives.

The 840 only supports 2MB VRAM itself, so I was wondering if there is one 
that supports 4, 6, or 8 MB and fast video.  I don't need any special 
I/O, just a normal monitor.

Thanks,
Tim

I have a Thunder IV 1360, and using it in a Powermac 7100 with the DSP 
plugins for photoshop 4.0 lets it resize/gaussian blur/some other 
filters almost the speed of my G3/400 iMac (tested on some of large 
images). It's a phenomenal boost for those features it helps. For 
everything else, it's just a nice quick and featureful NuBus graphics 
card. It does run a little slower in the 68ks I've used it on, but not 
in any way deficient.

If you like flashing lights, it's a nice card too. There's a row of 
LEDs on the card itself that indicate when a DSP is being used. They 
flash away like crazy in photoshop :)

 Tim

The onboard ram became more important when people started going 3D since the
more memory you have the more textures you can store in video memory. For
just 2d anything over 4-8mb wouldn't be used anyway even on a 22 monitor.

Even if you could use larger VRAM chips on the motherboard if the video chip
isn't designed to use more memory and the drivers are not written for using
more memory then you will still be out of luck. I upgraded my 840AV to have
full vram (2mb) along with 128MB of system ram and that's good enough for
what I use the system for.

There has always been a see-saw battle between custom chips and CPU's for
doing tasks. DSP's were popular for a while for doing Photoshop work until
the PPC and Intel MMX chips became fast enough to do it just like hardware
MPEG decoders were popular until the CPU was fast enough to do it on its
own. From what I remember the 840AV used the DSP's for controlling its modem
port instead of using a dedicated hardware modem (never tried it to see how
well it works) just like there are allot of (shitty) winmodems used on the
Intel PCs these days.

E-Machines ColorLink Video/E-net Card

2003-11-18 Thread Jeff Walther
Anyone using a Colorlink card by Emachines?   Is the ethernet portion 
compatible with Open Transport?   I ask, because I have a Futura IISX 
with the ethernet daughterboard and the card freezes my IIci when the 
OT extensions load.  It works fine with Classic Networking.  So I'm 
wondering if the ColorLink has the same problem.

Re: MicroNet NuPort II SCSI card - anybody know how this works?

2003-10-08 Thread Jeff Walther
From: Greg Shafritz [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Date: Tue, 7 Oct 2003 20:19:45 -0400

I've got an old (circa 1991) MicroNet NuPort II SCSI card that I'm trying to
test the capabilities of.
Trouble is, I can't find ANY documentation or useful info about it on the
web.  I have no documentation or software, just the card.

As for documentation, has anyone got a manual they could scan or photocopy?
If the documentation does turn up, and for folks in the Austin, TX 
area, there are two of these cards (as of a week ago) in the SCSI 
card bin (behind the counter) at the Goodwill Computer Works store. 
I think they're priced at $5 or $10 each.  I keep being tempted, but 
knowing nothing about them, I've left them in the bin.  I vaguely 
remember seeing them advertised or perhaps reviewed in old MacWorld 
or MacUser issues, but I disposed of my old issues many years ago.

I guess I could go down to the UT library which has back issues...

DOS Card In Quadra 650 - Where's The PC Window?

2003-09-22 Thread Robert Little
help!
I've installed a DOS card from a gutted 6100 into a
Quadra. I've never used one before. Since I do not
have the dongle for the wee beastie, I figured I
could just use the Mac monitor with PC running in a
window. 
Well, it doesn't. It says that PC is running, but
aside from a slight dimming, I get nothin'. If I
haven't said it before...

Re: DOS Card In Quadra 650 - Where's The PC Window?

2003-09-22 Thread PeterH5322

There is no option to run a DOS card (6100 and some 68K PDS machines), a 
DOS on a Mac [ DOAM ] card (Reply, for 7100/8100/9150 PDS machines) or 
a PC Compatibility card (PCI Macs) without the appropriate dongle.

The DOAM card will not work with with a G3 PDS card which incorporates 
HPV pass through. The pass through function only includes enough 
functionality to support the HPV card or the A-V card ... not the DOAM 
card.

Re: DOS Card In Quadra 650

Peter,
You lost me somewhere. This is not a G3 machine (far
from it... remember, Quadlist?), just an ol' Quadra
650 with PDS. What does the dongle do, precisely?
Are you saying that I need to wire a video out from
the port on the back of the card? If so, any idea what
the pinouts are?
I am in posession of 6 '040 Macs right now. Would the
card work better in a Quadra 800? Or, if someone out
there has the appropriate adapter, a Centris 660AV?
Any advice is appreciated...

Yes, I understood that.

In a DOS or PS card equipped machine, the DOS or PC card does all the audio 
and video switching between DOS and Mac modes.

The dongle is a requirement for this, unless two monitors are used, and 
then the issues are somewhat different.

I always use the dongle, and I always use a 20 multiscan monitor, and I 
always install the (optional) DOS/PC monitor and sound extensions.

This way, I get completelty plug and play function between Mac and DOS/PC 
modes.



Would the card work better in a Quadra 800?


If it has an '040 PDS, then yes.

A graphic Nubus card for word processing and photoshop

2003-08-14 Thread Adam Dunn
Hello All,

I'm looking for the above to help me get through the ever growing 
thesis I'm writing.  Redraw rates and photos in the document are S . 
L . O . W . and I'm looking to speed things up.  Running a 660av (so a 
7' card guys) on OS 7.6.1.  I suppose the most important thing is 
availability.  The Radius thunder II gx may be the bees knees but if 
they're virtually impossible to get second hand, it's a bit of a loss!

Regards,

Adam Dunn

Adam,

What is the file size of the photos you are using.  My experience with 
Photoshop is that they are usually very large files.  What is the lowest 
resolution you can go with and still get the detail you need.  Smaller files 
will speed up the redraw time.

I don't know about a photoshop plugin but the 660av takes 1mb of the 8mb
onboard for vram.
Probably better of with some kind of  video card. It explains the lack
of speed for mine.
   

Isnt the video ram part of the motherboard? I didnt think it used system ram
for video. I upgraded my 840av to 2 meg VRAM so I can get more color depth.
Most software slowdowns are caused by not having enough system ram causing
the system to swap to the HD alot. My system (840AV 128mb ram) is snappy
considering its age and all.
Check the 660av specs

1 MB of built-in 80 ns VRAM is dedicated to video function.
While the 840av has 1 mb dedicated and 4 extra slots for 4x256k to give 
a max of 2mb.
How well the 660 allocates this vram and the fact that its capped at 
1mb causes me concern when using a program such as photoshop. You may 
well be correct stating photoshop has a pluggin for the 660 in which 
case the overall system ram may play a part.

Both models you mention use 80ns vram, the difference in the way each is 
setup and the extra mb you have would explain the difference for me.
Macs love ram, the more the better.

Isnt there a plugin for photoshop 2 or 3 that uses the built in DSP's of the

I dont think any nubus cards are faster then the built in video of the
660/840av quadra's because of the slow nubus bus compared to the faster
built in video bus. The thunder GX is fast because of the DSP's onboard, if
you cant get the 660av onboard dsp's running try finding a cheap radius

Not scarce at all.

Often as little as $10 on e-bone, and some New-in-Box units are still

It is the dongle which is scarce as hen's (wisdom) teeth.

Win95 is a go, but nothing after that.

Howdy Y'all!
Been bamboozled. Bought what was supposed to be a 610

work, but still need a 610 DOS card for my Centris.
Anyone know a source?
Actually, the 6100 DOS card itself is almost identical to the Houdini 
and will work fine in a 610 or any other Quad with an '040 PDS slot.

The problem is the PDS adapter. The 6100 card comes with an adapter 
which converts the 6100 PDS to an '040 one. To put the card in a 610, 
you need to take the DOS card off of the 6100 adapter and use the one 
intended for the PowerPC upgrade card.

630 Dos Compatible Card - OS setup query

2003-02-15 Thread john raineri
I have searched and read the FAQ's, and collected about 20-30 urls in my 
favourites about this Quadra DOS thang... but couldn't find a solution to 
my question How to get dos into the ($8.00 ebay) Performa 630 Logic Board 
with DOS Compatible card installed? RAM is installed on both the mother 
board and the DOS card. 

I'm sticking the 630 into a 6300 case as a sort of dual purpose box, 
swapping motherboards. The 6300 board has TV tuner, MPEG and Video in, 
while the 603 in the 6300 box does the old DOS games, etc...

The current 6300 has OS 9.1 on a 6GB IDE, so I suppose I'll have to 
backtrack to OS7 or 8 for the 630 board to recognise the disk, then work 
on installing M$DOS?

How to Enable L2 cache on 575's PPC601 upgrade card

2003-02-09 Thread Matt Ruben
Hi all,

First post to this list. I've got a Power Mystic -- a Color Classic 
with an LC575 motherboard, and a PPC601 upgrade card (66MHz model), and 
it''s working great, except for one thing: the 256k L2 cache doesn't 
work.

TattleTech detects it as present, but reports it as not enabled. The 
Apple 601 Processor Upgrade control panel (which is the proper CP for 
the Apple and Daystar varieties of this card) only allows one to toggle 
between the 601 and the on-board 68040; no L2 cache on/off switch.

According to Low End Mac, every card ever produced in this form factor 
(Apple, Daystar, Sonnet) has a 256k L2 cache. I have tried using 
various Daystar Control Panels, but they do not turn on the L2 cache 
either, Daystar's PowerControl has a button for L2 cache info, but it 
is greyed out. NewerTech's old Cache-22 util (part of their Guages 
package) crashes before it can finish starting up.

I've googled the Web and Usenet, and I've checked the Pickle's LEM FAQ, 
all to no avail.

Any ideas?

TIA,
Matt

P.S. I hope this is on-topic here--I figured that since it's a 575 mobo 
involved at the core of things, this question is more at home here than 
on 1st PowerMacs or CompactMacs.

Re: How to Enable L2 cache on 575's PPC601 upgrade card

2003-02-09 Thread Matt Ruben
The Pickle strikes again--mostly :-)

Inspected the card, and the cache is present (it's a daughtercard with 
chips on it, adjacent to where the 68040 CPU plugs into the main board 
of the upgrade card -- just like it's drawn in the Daystar user guide). 
This one has 8 32k chips on it, rather than 2 128's or 4 64's.

As for the OS, I obtained this machine with 7.6.1 already on it, but 
the proper Control Panel was installed, and AFAIK the previous owner 
did a fresh install of the OS when he first put in the upgrade card.

Nevertheless, I did a clean install of OS 8.1 anyway, and was 
pleasantly surprised to see that it improved my MacBench CPU score by 
1% and the FPU score by 13%. I'd assumed that 8.1 would be slower.

Finally, in total frustration, I used TomeViewer to pull out the Apple 
System Profiler from the OS 9 install CD -- the 7.6.1 and 8.1 versions 
of the Profiler don't report anything about cache (grrr). So the OS 
9 Profiler reports 256k L2 cache.

Finally, I loaded an old copy of TechTool Pro and ran the cache test, 
which (in addition to testing the L1 cache) tests the L2 cache for (a) 
presence and (b) functionality. Sure enough, the machine passed the L2 
cache test.

So it's possible that the fresh install of OS 8.1 helped things -- 
perhaps the MacBench increases were due to the newly enabled cache 
rather than any speed benefits of 8.1 itself. But I doubt the new OS 
install was the reason, as TattleTech still reports the cache as not 
enabled.

I think that the cache was enabled and functioning all along, and I 
just didn't know it.

Oh well, stupid me. Thanks to the Pickle for taking the time to 
respond, and thanks to everyone else for the bandwith :-)

Best,
Matt

 with the card removed?

 I think the Daystar PowerControl is only for the PowerCard and PowerPro
 upgrades, which would explain its reticence here.

 Did you do a fresh install of the OS when you installed the card?

 Things it probably isn't:

  - the 040 cache mode, since the 040 is turned off completely when the 
 PPC is
 active
  - anything else related to the 040, for the same reason

Just for kicks once, I tried Win98 on it's minimum requirement - a 486/66 
with 16 megs of RAM. It ran, surprisingly okayishly. Upped the memory for 
64 megs of RAM and used it for two years as a surfing station :)

Just over this weekend I put it on my Toshiba Dynapad tablet PC (486/40) 
and once I get the memory up past 12 megs it'll be quite well.

Despite it being Windows, even it can be trimmed and nipped and tucked to 
run decently on older machines.

Win98 running on a 386?

Perhaps someone here who can read German can take a look...
It would be better than what I get from Web translators.


I have an old Socket 7 system here with a K5 PR75 (around P90
equivalent), 16 MB EDO, 1 GB IDE HDD (could add or replace with
larger, but its a cheap case which makes it more work so I haven't
bothered. Maybe if I need more space later.)
Matrox Millennium II PCI, SB16
Vibra PnP ISA, AON101T (RTL8019AS 10BaseT ISA, NE2000 compatible)
which is currently running WinNT 3.51 (SP5).

Its not screaming fast, but its good. Beats WFW 3.11 though (which it
shares the Program Manager interface with) :-)

I have MS Office 95 (NT 3.51 can run Office 97 also (which draws its own
controls, so it has the Explorer style title bars and such) but I
thought Office 95 might be a bit faster, plus I also wanted to try out
this DOOM like egg in Excel 95), Illustrator 4, Photoshop 3.0  4.0,
Winamp 2.80, IE 3.03 (yuck!) Opera 5.11, LeechFTP 1.3 all working
nicely (although the last two don't work 100% due to some older common
control libraries and such). Also a couple of games (SinkSub Pro v2.03
and Combat Tanks v1.0 (a Win16 classic!). The newer (both 16 and
32-bit) versions of mIRC sort of ran also, although I suspect an older
16-bit version might work better.


SH Despite it being Windows, even it can be trimmed and nipped and tucked to

Old versions of Windows can be run on new PCs, much more than compared
to the oldest System / Mac OS versions that can run on newer Macs. :-)

 Win98 is very similar to the Win95, but it isn't just bug-fixed

 Kind of depends how you look at it, the last version of windows 95 (released in 1997)
 included ie 4 intergration (wheather you liked it or not) and usb support!

Excuse me, but it isn't really correct. The support essentially means,
that after installing so-called 'USB patch' (it must be installed
manually, BTW), in the Device Manager you'll see gray square labelled
'USB hub' instead of yellow question mark labelled 'Unknown PCI device'.
But you'll be unable to use almost any real USB peripheral - scanners,
storage devices, printers, and even joysticks.

 and usb
 support really isn't a kernel thing, just a driver thing, after all it's just 
another device.

Not quite so. Microsoft itself has said:
===
Windows 95 OSR 2.1 and OSR 2.5 provide basic USB support that was
developed as the technology was first emerging. Based on today's more
mature USB technology, there are a number of limitations with USB
support in Windows 95 OSR 2.1 and Windows 95 OSR 2.5.

These limitations were addressed in Microsoft Windows 98 and carried
forward to Microsoft Windows 98 Second Edition. Addressing these
limitations required several architectural changes that are not portable
back to Windows 95 OSR 2.1 or Windows 95 OSR 2.5. 
===

 Probably best to look at it with the build numbers around rc2 (after which ms played 
arounf with them
 inflating them to something that looked good, 95 950, 95SE (both osr1  osr2  
osr2.5 ) , 98 1998,
 98se  , can't remeber me's probably 3000 at a guess ;-) )
 which was about 1350 if i remeber correctly, versus build  for the last release.

There were no Win95SE! :-) Retail 4.00.950, Retail SP1 4.00.950A, OSR1
4.00.950A, OSR2 4.00. (4.00.950B), OSR2.1 4.03.1212-1214
(4.00.950B), OSR2.5 4.03.1214 (4.00.950C). 

Mentioned USB support was included in OSR2.1 and OSR2.5, but as I've
said, it doesn't work with almost anything, except for few mice,
keyboards and two or three Kodak digital cameras, that have specifically
written Win95 drivers included.

 Anyway must stop now, I'm bableing windows nonsense on a mac list, bad me ;-)

But look at the Subject: line - we're just speaking about 'what software
might work on particular Macintosh hardware'! :-)

Actually, yes, you did have to install it. It wasn't part of the default 
install. OTOH, it's not part of the DOS card, either, so...

98's somewhat more stable, 95 (if you can find the earlier versions without 
anything integrated - think my old upgrade CD didn't even have IE, or it 
was IE 2.0 or some such) will probably run better in the limited amount of 
memory available on the DOS card.

One of these days I've got to get my 640 up and running - since I'm 
probably just going to put plain ol' DOS on for a game or two. (Subwar

Hi Kyle,

Win98 is very similar to the Win95, but it isn't just bug-fixed
version - there are some serious differencies in the kernel. For
example, Win98 does have native (built-in) support for USB peripheral,
and Win98SE - support for FireWire peripheral, unlike Win95.

WBR,

Kind of depends how you look at it, the last version of windows 95 (released in 1997)
included ie 4 intergration (wheather you liked it or not) and usb support! and usb
support really isn't a kernel thing, just a driver thing, after all it's just another 
device.
Probably best to look at it with the build numbers around rc2 (after which ms played 
arounf with them
inflating them to something that looked good, 95 = 950, 95SE (both osr1  osr2  
osr2.5 ) = , 98 = 1998,
98se = , can't remeber me's probably 3000 at a guess ;-) )
which was about 1350 if i remeber correctly, versus build  for the last release.

Anyway must stop now, I'm bableing windows nonsense on a mac list, bad me ;-)

DOS cards as found on 630 DOS Compatible Macs were limited to 32 MB 
RAM. Try running Win98 in 32 MB RAM :-(

You could run Win95 (I used to) but I found there was also a 
(serious) limitation with this card. It's highest video display was 
800 x 600 at 4bit resolution - 16 colors in total. Just pitiful.
You could get 8bit color at 640 x 480

IIRC, like OS/2 and NT, you could not install and run Win98 on this 
card either.

Later PCI, Pentium type DOS cards were probably the way to a better 
Windows experience on a Mac. - But that's getting OT.

Re: DOS Card

2003-01-23 Thread Kyle Kinsey
Actually, it is the way NT allows access to the system peripherals.  NT
is supposed to simulate what called protective mode operations.  If

Not exactly protected mode is just the name of when 386 chips up run
properly, real mode being silly 16bit mode.
Though as an os is provides a secure environment with memory protection,
unlike macs before OSX.

an app fails, theoretically, the OS won't crash (but it still does).

But tecnically only is a driver is written incorrectly and not an app which makes
it much better.

In running this way, NT drivers were VERY specific and kludgy.  That's

Actually it made things a lot better, which is why nt survived and OSX does things
much the same. (NT is very much sort of a unix os compared to 9x, thouygh still VERY 
VERY
REMOVED ;-) )

why very few games came out for NT.  Call by the game to the sound
card, CD, hard drive, etc., were protected by the OS.

NT 4 yes, though the real reason was more lack that nt only had DirectX 3 and
then only software mode! (there is technically no reason nt4 could not have had
greater dx's and hardware mode drivers except ms did not want it too)
Remember than win 2000 and win XP are really NT 5 and NT 5.1.
Actually when the first win 200 beta's came out there was a DX5 on it that could be
hacked to work under nt4.

My bet is that 98 will work since it is just an improvement over
95and I bet that ME would run if you had a 586 with 64MB of RAM
(I'm guessing here), since ME is an improved 98.

indeed 98 and 98se should both work being just 95+plus+ie4 and a few buf fix's.

ME again is much the same while trying to hide dos a bit, but should work fine,
although i does check for at least a 150mhz cpu by default though this can be
worked around by running setup /nm /nm being a hidden setting for no miminum.
Although I'm pretty sure that both 98's and me do require a fpu though (but not mmx).

BLAH!!!

Negatory!

DOS and Windows run better, and more reliably, on a MAC, than on a 
gen-u-wine
PC.

Seriously!

That changes my opinion of the DOS card from being a novelty.  I assume it 
has something to do with how the instruction set is being used in the 680X0 
style of CPU chip being more stable than the instruction code in 586 CPU.  I 
have noticed that the 486 PC is more stable running 95 than 586 and up. 
Guess it goes to prove that faster and newer is not necessarily better.

Well, my 640CD DOS runs Win95 fine, and would likely run 98. Haven't tried 
NT.
 

Using PCSetup, Win98 is supposed to be supported. NT never will be.


This is probably due to the fact that both Win 95/98 both use a different 
style of FAT (File Allocation Table) than NT which uses NTFS.  NT is closer 
to a UNIX based OS than DOS based and is more stable.  It is good to hear 
that the DOS card makes up for the inadequacies of the pentium style of CPU.

Re: DOS Card

2003-01-21 Thread Marblsnet
The one that I am familiar with (probably the oldest) is essentially a 286 
self-contained on two interconnected nubus cards, complete with one whole meg 
of memory. When I had this installed in my quadra 700, I found it to be 
essentially useless. I mean it worked, but it wasn't good for anything. There 
were a number of other variations on this idea, emulating 386, 486, etc, but 
nobody makes them anymore, because emulation with just software on a PPC is 
much more effective. You can read more about these cards at macwindows.com

There are actually quite a few such cards, from Apple, Orange Micro and Reply.

The Apple card was ultimately transferred to Reply, IIRC.

There are '040 PDS-based cards and PCI-based cards. Also 7100/8100/9150-based 
cards.

Some have built-in Soundblaster support, others don't.

Some are called DOS Compatibility cards, some are called DOS on a Mac 
cards, while others are called PC Compatibility cards.

Some will run Win98, but most won't. None, IIRC, will run NT.

Those which are stated to run Win311 will usually run Win95 but not Win98.


The DOS Compatibility cards were supplied with both DOS 6.2.2 and Win 3.1.1.

Later cards were supplied with DOS only, even though these were specifically 
stated to be PC compatible.

Every one requires a dongle, and each dongle is different.

These cards, with the possible exception of the Reply DOS on a Mac card,  
are pretty trouble free.

There are many restrictions on the Reply DOS on a Mac card, including the 
dependence upon a specific version of CD-ROM on the Mac side.

Well, my 640CD DOS runs Win95 fine, and would likely run 98. Haven't tried NT.


Wasn't thinking of 95 (and haven't in years. g) I've seen statements 
saying flat out they do *not* run Linux, NT, or OS/2. (Which is too bad, I 
wanted to get OS/2 going on the 640.)

It's something about how they access the disk and/or memory, I don't recall 
the details. (Given how the 9x family is so scabbed on top of the 
win3.1/dos setup...)

Anyway, for whoever said it sounded like more of a novelty - it depends. If 
you have a PC, yeah, it is (unless the PC is so new it won't run DOS stuff 
well, part of why I'm eventually going to back up the HD, reformat, and 
give it a DOS drive again.) If you have(had) a Mac and just needed to run, 
say, WordPerfect for DOS, early WinWord, etc, it made more sense to get a 
cheap card to add to the Mac than get another machine altogether.

Re: Quadra 610 PDS DOS Card in other '040s?

2003-01-20 Thread edjones
Hi

I once ran a PDS dos card in my Q650, and it worked just fine.

The one problem was the cables. I have to use string to support the cable
from inside the machine, and feed it through an empty nubus slot.

Can't find copy of site where I got info how to do it again though.

I did remember though that best perfomerance was to add a simm on the card
and not to use the motherboards memory. I ran Ami Pro on Win 3.1 quite
happily. I also upgraded the heatsink (on the 486) to something better.

I once saw a WWW page that had info about using one in a 650; try googling for

The biggest problem is cabling, because the 610s are the only ones where the
card actually sits against the back panel.  Running cables into the case for
the others (as the 040 PDS isn't always accessible from the outside) can be
problematic.

Also, other than the DOS Compat. card or an accelerator is there anything
else I can put in an '040 PDS slot?

I know of one video card, and the WGS95 had a SCSI card in the PDS, but other
than that I haven't heard of anything.

The other versions of that card incorporate the very same card, but add an 
extender for the (single) connector, which extender also provides some 
mechanical support for the card.

As the connectors are readily available, you could make your own functional 
extender, using a blank NuBus slot cover. The card wouldn't be as well 
supported, but it would function as well.

The connections are one-to-one.

I don't recall right offhand if it's the same one that fits in the 660A/Vs, 
but I pulled one (spare) out of its angle bracket, and removed the endplate 
- it fit a Q700's PDS slot, though it (just barely) doesn't fit the Q700's 
case. I recall a site saying someone had put them in, but he had to butcher 
the inside framing of the case top (er, side) to get it to fit.

The 660AV PDS is different from the 610 PDS.  However, there are probably angle
adapters for the 660AV PDS that turn it into a normal 040 PDS slot.

DigitalFilm card problems/solutions

2003-01-17 Thread Mark Benson
Sorry - had to do a widespread trawl across the remaining NuBus lists 
to get an answer as the 1st-Powermacs list ppl seem stumped.

I have a SuperMac DigitalFilm kit. It has a 15-pin monitor output on 
the breakout box but it doesn't seem to output any video my monitor (a 
very useful 17 .25dp PC monitor that handles practically any res. 
between 320x200 an 2040x1536) can understand. It seems to thing the 
signal has a horizontal scan of 15Khz, which is TV frequency.

Does anyone know a way of resetting it or resetting the PRAM to make it 
display at a standard Res?

What happened?
Anyone can help?

2124NB II Nubus Graphics Card (Micro Conversions)

2002-12-24 Thread Ken Watanabe
(this is going to both 1st-PowerMacs and Quadlist since it applies to both)

I picked up a still shrink-wrapped 2124NB II Nubus Graphics Card (made by
the now-defunct Micro Conversions) on eBay for a reasonable price.  It has
some interesting features such as Zoom (zooms in/out on a portion of the
screen near the mouse cursor by hitting a hot key) and Pan (runs a bigger
virtual desktop and allows panning around it by moving the mouse to the
edge of the currently visible area).  It also goes up to 1152x870 resolution
at millions of colors and does some hardware-based QuickDraw acceleration.

A LowEndMac page says it is compatible through Mac OS 9.0.4 (not with 9.1),
but that's not entirely true.  The HARDWARE works in my Mac OS 9.1 PowerMac
8100 (with a NewerTech G3).  However, the SOFTWARE (a control panel) causes
screen artifacts in some situations.  Without the control panel installed,
the card seems to behave properly, but QuickDraw acceleration and the
Pan/Zoom features are not enabled (you still get millions of colors at up to
1152x870).  The card's performance is noticeably slower than the PDS AV Card
that is standard on AV Nubus PowerMacs, even with QuickDraw acceleration
enabled on the 2124NB card.

The performance difference is likely to be more noticeable in my case
because my 8100 has a G3; on a non-accelerated nubus PowerMac running Mac OS
8.6 or 8.1 (or lower), the 2124NB would probably work quite well.  I say
that because I put the card in a Mac OS 8.1 Quadra 700 (with a Daystar PPC
601).  In that system (using either the 68040 or PPC CPU), everything seems
to work perfectly and the performance of the card nicely matches the
performance of the Mac.

Now, my Quadra 700 (with max vram) already has pretty decent built-in
graphics, but I think I'll leave the 2124NB in it for now.  If I ever attach
a larger monitor to it, I'll be able to get 24-bit color at a higher
resolution and could even make it a two-headed system.

Happy Holidays!

- Ken W

Ethernet card * LC 475

2002-10-31 Thread leonard kuzminski
Hello listers,
I recently purchased a used Apple LC PDS ethernet card for my LC
475( it has a full 68040 cpu; 20 mb ram; 250 mb hd and OS 7.5.3) . The
indicator light comes on when the computer is turned on but when I
switch to ethernet  from the network control panel, I get an error
message- no code or explanation and the system switches back to local
talk.
Is there something else I am supposed to do or add to the system? I
assumed that as it is an Apple network card,that the system will
recognize it and has the driver(s) to run it? Am I mistaken? If there is
nothing further to do on the software side; is there any way to test the
card without trying a different card?

assumed that as it is an Apple network card,that the system will
recognize it and has the driver(s) to run it? Am I mistaken? If there is
nothing further to do on the software side; is there any way to test the
card without trying a different card?


The fact that Ethernet shows up in the Network control panel means 
that the driver is finding a card it recognizes.  The Apple LC 
Ethernet driver seems to work with all LC Ethernet cards.  The light 
on the card being on is a good sign.  What about the connection at 
the other end? If it's a hug is the link light on at that end?  If it 
is not on at that end then that's the problem.

The only other issue is that SOME early LC Ethernet cards don't work 
with later models (later than the LC  LC II).  The one I encountered 
would seem okay until you tried to actually transfer something.  Then 
the system would hang.  I've only encountered this with an Asante 
card (IIRC) but it's possible it applies to other brands.  Check the 
manf web site (Apple) to see what models the card is recommended for.

thanks for help with PPC upgrade card

2002-10-30 Thread w g kussmaul
Thanks to all who took a look at the picture of my PPC upgrade mystery
card, which does not appear to be for my Q950 after all.  I'm still not
sure what it is-- some have suggested it's for the LC575, others for the
Q630 series.

In any case, I'll be selling it on eBay if anyone's interested.

Radius Video Card

2002-10-27 Thread Byron Gardner
Forgive the cross post.

I have a Radius video card and need to make modifications. I know there 
is a key that can be pressed at startup to change the settings but have 
since forgotten the key.

Can anyone give me the key to press?

Thanks,

Nope. But thanks for the reply. I remember it was a letter key but 
can't remember which one. Senior moment.

I will keep trying...
