Here's some pics of my boards.... I think the one that was fully working/booting is missing the HD at the moment and the backup of said HD. Out on loan to a fellow 68ker

My quest but sadly this site's changed a few times so I think a lot of things were lost. Pretty disappointing overall but it is what it is. Ill try to snap some pics of the PEX I've got here.

If I recall... very fuzzy. I think both of mine have different chimes. The one that @blitter has is fully operational. I think/recall it freezes on startup but if you reset the finder it will come to life. There are some fairly nutty files on mine from what I recall as well. I think blitter was...

Hey everyone. I've got a PowerBook I'm trying to restore. The screen flickers on, but no backlight and/or image I can see. I'm fairly sure it's the actual display but don't know what screen I need to replace it. Any info is greatly appreciated, and if someone has one lying around, I'd be happy...

So I was able to work out a deal on that W.A.L.T. The seller was really cool. I've never seen one in this color before. After some poking around I realized a PB 140 charger would work to start it up. That being said, I cleaned it up and bit and plugged it in. It turns on... sadly the hard drive...

Picked these beauties up a few weeks ago. Unreleased (half sized) clear, and beige Profileish drives... Hopefully I can get at least two of them working. 

I'm not sure if this is an Apple printer or not but I figured someone here might be able to help. Can anyone identify this cover/if it's an Apple printer? I appreciate the help!

So I'm working on a very special powerbook and need some help... the motherboard has the PowerBook 165/180 style CPU connector (larger than the PowerBook 170 style). The issue is the inverter board. The board on top is the one I need to use with the PowerBook's motherboard for the connector but...

Found this on eBay. Seems like a really good price. I've seen people trying to sell them for $3.00 a pop...

I've been trying to determine how many MB's the HD inside my Lisa is... the only indication I have for anything is the number of blocks. Is that how one tells what the internal HD size is? 

Here you go. 

Got the ANS from eBay. It doesn't work, which is how it was described. I suspect it might be the PSU but have a few questions. Do they keys being in a certain position/lock engaged a certain way stop the unit from working/not work? Anything helps and thanks. 

TA DA!!!!!!! All it requires is the correct ROM chip in order to work. Sequence to boot: 1) Turn on Power 2) Wait for Red power light to turn orange 3) Hit power again 4) Plug in to TV Now with the extensions I have I should be able to put them on an external HD and maybe get it working...

Alright, let's get one of these little guys going :)

As the saying goes, beggars can't be choosers. While I'd like to have a PERFECT LPGA PowerBook they seem to evade me so I took what I could get. Rather than starting a new topic I figured I'd just continue on this tread. The LPGA PB showed up today, I knew it had some damage, wasn't working...
