I must have remembered it wrong then. It has been a while since I opened up a IIci. Sherman On Tue, 2 Nov 2004 17:17:35 -0600, Jeff Walther <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > >Date: Tue, 2 Nov 2004 08:41:12 -0800 > >From: Sherman Chen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > >On Tue, 2 Nov 2004 11:38:14 -0500, Ian N

Re: Mac IIci

Hmm...the Vintage Macs server must be slow tonight... I zapped the PRAM, and I got the same result. I pushed the Interrupt button just for the heck of it and I got a Sad Mac with the error code: 000F 000? ( I forgot the last number in the second line ) Ian On Nov 2, 2004, at 5:47 PM, She

Re: Mac IIci

Ok, I installed the new PRAM battery, and the computer powers up to the flashing question mark. I popped in a 7.0 Start up disk, and to my surprise, it booted into 6.1.x! Anyway, I opened the HD SC Utility, and it didn't find the Hard Drive. The hard drive sounds functional... Maybe the SCSI

Re: Mac IIci

It was a holder for the light that came from the big, half-height Quantum hard drives. The light itself, an LED, plugs into a two-wire socket on the underside front of the hard drive. It does have a Quantum 80MB Hard Drive, but no wires coming out of it... I was just curious. Ian On Nov 2, 2004,

Re: Mac IIci

The light is supposed to connect to the mobo (I think). It's for the HD, so when it spin the light wll go on. However, with some HD, it will not work. So, maybe that's why it's disconnected. Sherman On Tue, 2 Nov 2004 07:00:00 -0500, Ian Nixon <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi... > > I found a

Hi... I found a Mac IIci in a thrift store yesterday for $5. I bought it, and brought it home. Upon powering it up, I noticed I needed a new PRAM Battery for it. My friend is bringing one over today... I was wondering about that light on the top of the case - is it supposed to be connected t
