Re: Mac IIsi PDS Card

Hi all, I have recently acquired a Mac IIsi. After a clean install of 7.5.3 I can no longer use the Ethernet port. It is on an FPU/Ethernet/NuBus combo card which plugs into the IIsi PDS. The card is made by Sonic Systems. Does anyone have info about this card - software, specs, problems, etc.

Re: Colour Classic Boot up - BIG problem!

Ok, Booting from floppies dosn't work because it says that they are too old to work on the CC. (They are 7.1) Booting from CD dosn't work because it starts then says BUS ERROR hold down shift and restart, i do and it does it all over again. Booting from external HDD (OS 7.6.1 or 7.1) dosn't work

Re: Colour Classic Boot up - BIG problem!

Ok, I've been messing about with the external HDD and this is what I did. Wipe external HDD, install 7.6.1 on it, connect to CC, BUT it only boots so I can use it when it is set to SCSI 7. Thats where I have my problem. It dosn't see the internal HDD so I can't fix it. I am going to try to get o

So I discovered a few minutes after asking. I have more files on my hard drives than I thought. I was considering building one from parts, but if I can't reuse my collection of power supplies from dead cx/ci's I probably won't bother. I noticed that the II & IIx have the same part number, but t
