General hardware help for all, how the hell are we gonna do it all?

Submitted by Keatah on March 23, 2012 - 1:03am

As vintage computers age, there will be growing checklist of things to do on a newly acquired system 30 years old which is ailing.

We could begin with learning to identify parts.
Know when they have burned up. Note the smell, the color, the temperature.
Look, listen, smell, touch, know when something isn't right. Know when it is.

Apple IIe went pop :(

Submitted by robbo007 on March 22, 2012 - 3:59am

After all my problems with my other Apple IIe in my last thread and finally solving them by replacing a faulty rom I can't believe my luck with this Apple IIe.

I was trying out a Midi Interface card last night. It was inserted correctly and I booted up and it worked fine. I wanted to leave the cables nice and neat and close the lip. I removed the card tidied the cables and replaced it. I switched on and something went pop and that familiar smell of burn electronics was in the air. arrgggghhhhhhhh!!!!!

I was not sure whether this should be placed in the Apple I Forum, or the Apple II Forum, but I decided it was a toss-up, so I placed it here:

A "Retrograded Apple IIe. Now (Supposedly) an Apple I.

Memory upgrade to 2 megs and more for a IIe (not platinum) ?

Memory upgrade to 2 megs and more for a IIe (not platinum)?
What are my options?

I have Ramworks 1,2,3 boards but I don't believe I have the 2meg expander daughtercards.
So I'm wondering what are my choices to take a //e system above and beyond 2megs ram.

I'm primarily interested in working with Appleworks and very large text files.

Are there plans or modern-day ram boards that would fit the bill?

Mountain Hardware expansion chassis manual?

Submitted by Keatah on March 14, 2012 - 12:25am

Is there a need for this? Considering there's only been 1,000 of these boxes ever made.

I have only ~5 hours of "Apple II" time this week, and how to best appropriate it. Manual scan or Sider drive teardown..?
