Vintage Macintosh Plus on 230v
Posted on 2014-05-16, 09:54
I live in the UK and I have a vintage Apple Macintosh Plus computer that I just got yesterday from the USA. Is it OK to just plug it in using a UK kettle lead to a 230v supply? The USA standard is 110v will I do any damage to it? Will I need something like this? http://www.maplin.co.uk/p/maplin-230v …

Thanks I did try CTCM.EXE but could not seem to figure how to change the port, I wasn't talking about the Serial/parallel port changes, I meant the IRQ PNP/ISA changes in the BIOS

Things are getting odder, I think I'm going mad! I have tried my setup in DOS 6.22 with the latest AWE64 DOS drivers installed etc, in DOS the LAPC-I does not work as expected, the sound in Monkey Island for example is totally messed up plays wrong instruments. The AWE64 however seems to work OK in …

Just reporting back, sadly changing the IRQ did not work. I have given up at the moment, I have removed the LAPC-I and the AWE64 is now working fine again. I guess I'll have to live without until I can figure out what going on here.

I am getting somewhere with the problem now, just removing the Roland LAPC-I card was not enough, I had to remove it from device manager as well, as soon as I did this, problem solved! so there is obviously a conflict between the two cards even thought the Roland is not a sound card as such it's a …
