I have a Macintosh II that was working fine until I changed out a video card. Then I got sad mac chime. Reinstalled the original card and still get a sad mac chime. I have done the following: Recapped the board Changed the RAM, with known good ram. Voltages all check out. Fresh Batteries...

I have the same setup. I used my IIsi to install 7.6.1 then transferred my hard drive (blueSCSI) to my SE/30. Booted to the ram disk which is 7.0.1 then used resedit to change the system setting and rebooted and everything worked. Its simple if you have a IIsi hanging around. I have two. :)

You were right to calm me down. It turned out to be a 225MHz G3. Still very happy and glad to have it. The case to the 6100/60 AV is trashed but everything on the inside works. It had a 1gig hard drive that is working well with no errors. 64mb ram, the cd rom and the G3 card and most of all...

Thanks for the info I am sure you just saved me hours of frustrations. I did know about the cache, I can use it in another mac. I will post when it arrives. Cross my fingers its a 500, looking at pictures with the black heat sink that's what I am seeing but any g3 will be faster.

So based on your suggestion I looked at what was available on ebay. I saw this 6100 av and thought it may already have a card. I asked to see a picture of the inside and noticed what looks like a g3 upgrade. Seller doesn't know its there. I offered him $35 because his shipping was so high at...

Yes the HDI-45 port. I do have two of the HDI-45 connectors and they both work on other systems. I think your right it was shoved against a way and put pressure on the port. Before I replaced it if you bent it down or wiggled it, you would get blue then all colors. I have checked the pins...

Hello, I have a 6116CD that only displays the green signal. So it looks like a green monochrome screen. If I wiggled the video connection sometimes would display all colors. I thought it was the connector so I replaced it but still only green and now if I wiggle you only see green. Any...

UPDATE- Computer arrived today and the mystery port goes to nothing. It must be some type of security device. Sadly the computer was not in great condition after its trip. Logic board works with no sound (even though they said it had sound) and the screen was an obvious broken screen taken...

Thanks for the info. Have you ever used the video out? How does it work? UM computer Center was written on the side but someone used black marker to cover it up. If I look hard I can now make it out in the picture I have. I just checked the listing and the seller has listed another one with...

With my luck it will be an anti theft thing. :)

Hello, I may have bought this on ebay just to find out what this port is. Any guesses before it shows up?

I recently installed a rom-inator and everything works well except bluescsi. It works with SCSI2SD so I never bothered to trouble shoot why. Have you tried any other scsi emulation?

I bought a Mac SE off eBay as is. Opened the case and found a battery bombed board. There is a bright side to this story. I found an applied engineering trans warp accelerator that did not get damaged. Plugged it into another Mac Se and it works!

Ok, tried Lido before posting and the drive just kept disappearing. Gave it another try and this time I was able to format it. Sorry carry on.

Hello, I picked up a Mac SE with a working hard drive. It won't boot since there seems to be a problem with the system folder. But I can verify the disk isn't damaged. I want to format the hard drive but it is locked. How can I force it to format? When I try to google this I get solutions...

Like Byrd said. You can smell and see some obvious things. Those caps will burn or explode. I had the thermal resister at r39 explode apart. Recap and look around. Also check your connections from the analog board to the display and logic board. If the white plastics look burned that’s an issue...

Got it. I have a Mac 128k. I will give it a shot.

I would start here (see picture). Look to see if you bridged any of your solder points you reflowed.

Says it needs System 6 or System 7 128k could not use System 6 or 7. "This is a Desk Accessory that lives in the System 6 suitcase, or System 7 Apple Menu Items"

Which analog board do you have?
