I love it! I hit a local thrift store today and found a few Macs which was great. The topper was when I pulled open the IIci. I saw a card in it that I new wasn't a cache card since it had a big black heat sink over the whole card. I popped that baby off and lo' and behold I see IBM and 601 on the big chip. That's it I buy that over the 6150/66WGS. (It also has a non-stock hd, a Quantum of some sort but didn't know the size of this since I couldn't get the model number, but it's half the height of the drives in my IIcx and IIci so I know that it isn't stock.) I plug it in at the store and get the familiar start up sound. That's good, so I may have a great steal but can't tell until I get it home and hook it up to my monitor.
I get home, hook it up and it works! I get a screen full of teddy bears (desktop pattern) and clickable windows and hds and the whole lot. I set up everything to the way I want it with 32-bit addressing on, the proper monitor settings, etc. Here's where I do the oops. I enable the 601 in the control panel and restart. I hit the skids there. LOL. I get the infamous ?-mark-in-the-floppy icon. What happened there? This is where I need help. I recovered the drive when I zapped the PRAM. So I'm good to go now and copy the drive to my backup drive. What do I need to do to get the Turbo 601 card up and running beyond the control panel? What is the best system (or only system) for this? Thanks for any help.
