Rescued an Apple IIgs

Submitted by Mr.Fix on March 6, 2013 - 7:11am

little background on the scenerio:

Back in November 2012 i was scanning my local classifieds and saw an ad for a apple iigs selling for $150 cdn. It was only the computer, keyboard, a 3.5 unidisk, and a manual. For $150 that was way too much and it wasnt even a woz edition by the looks of the pictures.

Submitted by -Blimco- on March 4, 2013 - 3:46pm

Unfortunately this website is 'temporarily' out of business.
But WOW , a whole bunch of cool cards.

The VGA card looks complete, as well as the IDE controllers.

My (new to me) IIgs

Submitted by k4lmp on March 3, 2013 - 5:35pm

I just got a good deal on a ROM3 IIgs, with one of the Buggie power supplies, and couln't pass it up. The LEDs work now on my enhanced keyboard, and with my Briel memory expansion, I now have over 5mb of memory. My CFFA3000 works great, too.

Apple II games

Submitted by dramsey on March 3, 2013 - 4:25pm

So I'm trying to play some of the Apple II games I loved, back in the day...and not having much success. FWIW, this system has an Applied Engineering TransWarp card, but the results are identical regardless of whether the card is running or is disabled via the ESC key at boot.

Lode Runner-- Once the game starts, all key presses are ignored. Sometimes banging on the entire keyboard will start the miner running in one direction or the other, but no single key does this reliably.

Apple //c - Oregon Trail Strangeness

Submitted by bushnrvn on March 2, 2013 - 1:53pm

I recently purchased an Apple //c as-is. With a little bit of elbow grease and a new power supply, it is chugging along good as new. I've played a few games on it so far and all have worked fine except Oregon Trail.

The game loads and gets to the main menu. I have four numbered options and the program awaits my input. However, none of the number keys seem to work. I press 1 through 4 and the cursor will blink as if a key has been pressed, but no value appears.

I've tested all the keys and they all work fine in any other program.

no sound: apple //c

Submitted by Mr.Fix on March 2, 2013 - 7:21am

Hey Folks,

i just noticed that the //c is not outputing any sound. I tried varies games and nothing is outputing to the speaker. I have also tried using headphones through the jack and still nothing. Yes i have tried varying the volume and that didnt change anything. Anybody know what i should be looking at? thanks in advance.
