I pulled out my 95lx today and found that it developed this weird dark stain-like area on its screen. As you can see it still shows everything on the display fine through the area in question, so it doesn't appear to be a crack or dead pixels. Any idea what this is and can it be remedied?

Does anyone know if the Presario 1210 can use a SRAM card like the ones the HP95lx uses? I'm mostly asking because I'd like to try to get around the SLOW method of using serial transfer to get files onto my 95lx. I know my Mobilepro 770 hates the cards and will try to reformat them.

I can't get Skate or Die to work on my IIgs. It tries to boot, but crashes to a screen with a bunch of "@" symbols and a flashing prompt. Its ram requirements are much smaller than my IIgs's amount of RAM. I downloaded it at "What is The Apple IIgs". Could this be one of the games that aren't...

I finally got a Power Supply for my IIgs. So far I've made the System 6 disk, used them to create a Second Boot Disk ( the Install to 800k Floppy Option) that I modified by removing the clock and printer control panel and added the sound control panel and two sounds. I've cleaned up and tested a...

A while back, about 8 years ago, I was working for a flea market vendor as his computer tech. He got an awesome load that was a mix of early pentiums( the machines I refurbed for him to sell) and various vintage computers, which I was given because he was just going to trash them anyway. In this...

I just swapped out a 68lc040 cpu and relaced it with a full 040 in a Performa 475. Does the full 040 produce anymore heat than the LC040? I was wondering If I need to put a heat sink on the cpu somehow , or does the case still allow enough airflow to keep things from overheating? I did notice...

I'll make it official. In this thread I'll do the trading part, the thread in the Apple section will now be for advice on what to rig up to test my IIgs without blowing it up. Items I know I have available for trade so far. Apple II series: Disk II interface card ( I have several of these)...

I was given an Apple IIgs with no PSU. Is there any PSU that can be adapted to power up the Motherboard to see if it is still good? I don't see any visible signs of trouble on both sides of the board, in fact its a very clean looking board. If someone has a spare I might be willing to trade...

As much as I hate to part with them, I no longer have the resources to restore my Apollo 735 or my Apollo 300. I have one keyboard, mouse and monitor set.All working, just needs some cleaning up. One Apollo 735 (PA-Risc) ( powers on but not booting, doesn't get past POST, possible ROM Bios...

I blew one of my iMac speakers and I need a new set( or just the left one). I checked one site and they were $100 a pair! :crazy: Anyone know where I can get a replacement speaker alot more reasonable? I'm hoping to fix the built in speaker system because space is limited since i have both my...

Since My Apollo 735 will be down for a long time I descided to give the older Apollo 300 some attention. Here is a "beauty shot" of the 300 much like the one I made of the 735 back when I aquired them both. BTW the screen is grey, not blue. I have no Disk drives for this one, just a HD ( top...

This is the picture of the Apollo the computer shop i hang out at ( on day they will hire me, but in a small town, computer shops don't make much) gave me. They had to get rid of alot of stuff because customers were taking their systems up there and never picking them up after they got fixed...
