I am trying to get my #Acorn #RISCPC #PCCard working again. The latest version of !PCPro can be found on the internet but as i don't have a working floppy drive i'm currently unable to install anything on it ....... #retrocomputing #riscos

I don't know why but I almost always find the axial capacitors #Acorn used in #Archimedes and #RiscPC have lost half their capacitance. The radials used are usually fine.
Time to test all the electronics from this bashed up #Acorn #RiscPC

I acquired another #Acorn #RiscPC to restore. Unfortunately this one got a bit smashed up in the post...

My #Acorn #RiscPC now has Intel Inside, but not in the way you would expect!

With our partners PCBWay.com taking a looking at a #90s #Acorn #ARM #RISCPC one of the very last desktop #British (made in #HongKong) computer systems.... This one really needs some help... #toxic #retro #computer #RISCOS #RISC_OS #BBCMicro

One nicely washed RISC PC motherboard. All the green corrosion in the RAM slots has washed off nicely. Next step is drying, then booting it off of a set of RO3.60 ROMs abd an ARM710 and checking the diagnostic output. (RO4 doesn't include the diagnostics and RO3 disables them on StrongARM) #acornrisc #riscpc
I think I need some more CDs. I’ve gone though Guns’n’Roses, Foo Fighters and AC / DC whilst working on solving a couple of complex problems today.
Sod the metaverse, this is my kind of meta. The circa 1995 RiscPC I’m restoring loading the website where I’m blogging about it being restored!
Good morning. Someone remembers this nice installation routine from #Delphi1 und Windows 3.11. Here shown on an #Acorn #RiscPC with standalone Intel processor card.
Basically laid the foundation for some RAD development environments.
