On both if the traces aren't destroyed. Working Mac Classics are actually
pretty rare because of the propensity of the PRAM battery used in them to leak

No NuBus video card requires a driver; it should have everything the operating

Not quite; not having a monitor plugged in to the port is what disables onboard
video. Just adding a NuBus video card

The Mac IIci will power up just fine without a mouse or keyboard attached.
What settings did you use for the video adapter? The Mac IIci built-in video
only supports certain settings.

My Mac IIfx has a 68-pin SCSI drive installed right now, through a 68-to-50
adapter. I don’t know exactly which flavor of SCSI it is, but it works great.

Has anyone figured out the format for the monitor list/timings in the Radius
software?
I don’t get great results at 1600x1200 with my Thunder IV because the LCD that
I have it going into really prefers the VESA frequencies (it’s 1600x1200
native), and I wind up with ghosting and such at the
The keyboard you’re referring to is technically the “Apple Keyboard” and not
specific to the Macintosh SE.
In fact, for most if not all of the Macintosh SE’s life, the keyboard was sold
separately and you could buy either the Apple Keyboard or the Apple Extended
Keyboard (replaced in late 1989
My guess is it’s a RasterOps or equivalent two-page display card. From the
start Radius cards looked like they were made by Apple in terms of their
identifying markings, and even their part numbering scheme.
The best thing you can do is (1) cover the window on the EPROM to ensure it

It’s very likely an analog board issue, rather than an issue of software or the

Mini vMac is a good nearly-turnkey emulation solution. Very simple to get going
with and to use to set up disk images, even if you can’t boot some of them.
(It’ll only emulate up to a Mac II, so it can’t boot a Mac OS 7.6 Disk Tools
image, but you can still use it to patch the Apple HD Setup
Apple HD Setup is an application that's usually on a Disk Tools disk alongside
Disk First Aid.
By design the Disk Tools disks are bootable, so they can be used to
repair/recover the primary hard disk. (Prior to System 7, they were the
Utilities disks.)

Yes, just use a patched version of Apple HD SC Setup 7.5.3.
