My SE/30 has now started rebooting by itself in a vicious loop, and "extensions off" makes no difference. On a couple of switch on's it also displayed the shown pattern for a couple of seconds, which then disappears before it tries to boot?

I am following Larry Pina's guide to repair a Mac Plus analogue board power supply, page 23, but I cant find a silicon controlled rectifier Q10 (CR400Y) or an equivalent on Mouser???

I have a NetGear WNCE2001 (RJ-45  Ethernet to 802.11) WiFi bridge adapter connected to the ethernet card in my SE/30 and I can ping the SE/30 from a Classic connected to my internet router via an Asante EN/SC and a 10T hub.  I'm running system 7.5.5 on the SE/30 and whether using MacTCP or Open...

I can't find a piece of software I found very useful,  I think it was called Sets its type (maybe all one word, it might even be of Japanese origin?

Hi, Checking out my Mac Plus I spotted a cut resistor on the logic board. Why would someone do this?

My Classic Mac defaults to LocalTalk instead of Alternative Ethernet and doesn't save my selection of Alternative Ethernet on restarting which I would like as I am using a Mini Asante EN/SC for file sharing. Is there a way of making my selection stick?

My SE/30 is now freezing during startup from a cold start and on the second try it starts up no problem. It also freezes from a cold start with extensions off and I think it's happening before the extensions are drawn on the screen. Would Macsbugs show me what's happening? and does it sound...

I've just got another SE/30 which will only read write protected floppies and doesn't recognise unprotected floppies, but asks to format them, and when I try  this it makes the usual chugging sounds but then fails at the end and says the disk is bad. Connecting a, known to be good, floppy drive...

After some serious inspection of the back of one of my SE/30 logic boards  I found the shown  object jammed between two pins of the UK6 Video ROM? Can't be right surely?

I've now found the ethernet card is stopping my SE/30  from booting  as when I remove it it boots fine. When switching on with the card installed  I get no chime (or bong) and the screen stays black,. Why? Ethernet card, or cards  shown below

I am having multiple problems with my SE/30 at the moment, grey screens with no bong, sad Mac errors and  simasimac screens but the one I want to fix first is when it boots  successfully and then without warning makes a raspberry sound  with an accompanying T shaped flash on screen and the...

I just want to share this superb example, no wonder my video had the jitters!

I am having a sad Macs error relating to ram and some of the contact pads on the ram in my SE/30 are pitted or showing tiny signs of arcing, they are not gold but solder coloured so I wonder if I can re-tin them? Colin

If I boot my Clamshell iBook in OSX and then start the Classic System 9.2.2 I retain the OSX setting to double click on the trackpad. If I boot into System 9.2.2 I can't use double click on the trackpad because I can't find a control panel to let me set this function and I find the computer...

I want to adjust the height on my B&W Macintosh Classic but can't find the information on which screw/pot to turn... as there are a few... and don't want to turn the wrong one.

I've just noticed that the startup bong on my 6100/60 has got quieter! If this is caused by caps can someone please tell me which one's ?

I have a Classic with a MINI EN/SC and a 6100/60 with a AAUI Transceiver both are conneted to a 10Based T ethernet hub hardwired to my router. But when running Basilisk II on a WinXP machine the Classic shows up in the Chooser window but not the 6100/60 ? And I've tried everything to get the...

I want some capacitors for my Classic, the one's near the power supply, and would like to buy equal to, or better than OEM quality - without going broke for Tantalum's, but I'm confused by some of the manufacturers specifications. I think that a higher lifetime at a higher temperature is good...

Sometimes when I switch on my Classic the hard drive starts to spin up then suddenly slows down like the power's been cut, it makes a noise and then starts to spin up again... and would go round in a loop if I left it on. xx( At other times it just spins up and everything's fine :b&w...
