Marten >I have an LC III in my closet that I can't get to do anything. Here's >the story: >This LC III had an 80 MB hard drive in it that had System 7.1 installed. >I took it out to use in my Mac IIsi. I have never booted the LC III with >this hard drive installed in it. I put the old 40 MB hard drive from my >IIsi into the LC III. Then I booted the computer with the System 7.1 >Disk Tools disk (the one that come with the install disks). The first >thing I noticed that seemed wrong was when I turned it on, it made a >sound like an LC 520 or a Quadra, instead of the normal LC III sound. >Then it gave me a Happy Mac booting from the System 7.1 disk, but before >it could say "Welcome to Macintosh," I got an error dialog that said >"This System Software (System 7.1) is too old to run on this computer. >Upgrade to a newer System version." or something similar. The next step >up is 7.5, which would run really slow with this LC III that only has >its defualt 4 MB of motherboard-soldered RAM. Does anyone know what's >keeping this LC III from accepting 7.1? I suspect it's had some wierd >ROM upgrade done to it, but when I look inside, I see a perfectly normal >MC68030 and chips. > -- ---------------------------------------------------------- Check out the System 6 Heaven: http://www.euronet.nl/users/mvdk/system_6_heaven.html Subscribe to the LEM system6 list: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ---------------------------------------------------------- -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
