I just got the cable for my apple portrait display. I put the card in my Quadra 700 and it worked fine. When its in the Mac II a grey screen appears but nothing else. Any idea what the conflict is? It works without the card in the Quadra 700.

Yeah thats where the smells coming from the psu. Ill try the suggestions of putting it all outside.

Got this quadra 700 online. Its yellow and It absolutely reeks of old cigarette smoke but works great! The old 1991 battery never leaked. Already tried washing everything but it still reeks. Ive wanted one of these for a while but they were too expensive. Wonder what can be done with this...

I bought this Newton 110 working. Then it decided to stop working. The ad said they had recapped it. Opened it up and found this loose capacitor and really bad soldering job. Is this fixable?

Thats great to know. My powerbook 180c is fine for now. I thought those active matrix screens didn't go bad like the other ones

I have a Radius system 100. I have no idea how to remove the front plate to it and its on there really good. All the info online isnt working. Anyone have one of these? They seem to be pretty rare

Cant find the right display plug for this monitor. Im trying to hook it up to my Mac ii that has a db15 full page display card. Any idea of the type of plug this takes? Thanks

Finally got it working. Just put 2 new pram batteries where i cut off the old batteries

Yes i have 2 new pram batteries but nothing happens. Ill try testing the circuit now

Im sure this is common but I have 3 Mac II motherboards 1 thats been recapped and has a soldered in battery holder. I cant get any of these to work. Are the power supplies known to fail on these?

I have a powerbook 165c that did the same thing. Turned on when i got it then after i took it apart it decided not to work anymore… same thing happened with the spare one i got.. i think the interconnect cable goes bad and messes it all up

I was able to get it to work by hooking up a composite cable to the tv and it worked. I will try the vga adapter suggestion at some point. Now I just need software..

Hello I just got a working apple iigs for $65 with the floppy and keyboard. I cant seem to find a iigs monitor at a decent price anywhere. Can i use any mac monitor? Is there a vga adapter available? What about the apple composite monitor? Thanks
