    Repairing M0487 keyboard advice

    Hi, I have a single key (dot on the numeric pad) on my M0487 keyboard that doesn't work. I cleaned the keys and membrane but that didn't fix the issue. I found a similar conductive paint here and some images of the inside of the keyboard: Apple Keyboard II Is it fairly easy to open i.e. I can...

    Mac SE 30 Shufflepuck cafe error type 10

    Playing Star Wars, if I pause the game and open the File menu, I always get either a bus error or error 10. I removed the 4*256KB RAM to only keep 1MB, I then installed Mode32 and enabled 32 bits but that didn't sort the issue. I tried again with Mac OS 7.0.1 and it worked. Does it mean I have...

    Mac SE 30 Shufflepuck cafe error type 10

    I tried other games and I'm often getting a Bus error message before having to restart the Mac. Do I need to add more RAM ?

    Mac SE 30 Shufflepuck cafe error type 10

    I haven't enabled the 32 bit addressing. Is that by installing Mode 32? Could it be an issue with the RAM / would it be worth running a memory test with a suitable application?

    Mac SE 30 Shufflepuck cafe error type 10

    Hi, I'm using a Mac SE 30 running Mac Os 7.5.3 + 5MB RAM with a BlueSCSI v2 and I started playing with shufflepuck cafe. Strangely it generates an Error Type 10 after playing for a few minutes. I have to reset the Mac to use it again. Any idea what could be the issue ? Thanks

    se/30 sound dies off

    Thanks for the info. I will order some new capacitors and replace them. Is the better approach to remove them is to apply heat and twist with a plier ?

    se/30 sound dies off

    No but I guess I have to go through it (found this: https://recapamac.com.au/macintosh-se-30/) Is it fairly easy to do if you gently twist the capacitors to remove them or very risky for those who've done it ? Is there a specific capacitor that should fix the sound issue as an attempt not to...

    se/30 sound dies off

    Hi, My Mac SE30 sound doesn't work either. I tried with a different speaker -> no sound. I tested the built-in speaker with a different source, it works. If I plug headphones, I hear something but the sound is very low. The capacitors seem to be ok.

    MAC SE 342-0352-A ROM High duplication

    Hi, I have Mac Classic that I'm trying to fix. It displays the same error 00000001 0000FFFF. Is there a way to fix without changing a chip ? Note that I have a BlueSCSI v2 if it helps. @Uked31 I'm interested in the steps you carried at the end to sort the issue. Could you please send me a copy...

    Mac SE FSHD black screen + loud noise

    Just a thought ; is it the CRT which is broken or could it be the card that is attached into the back of the CRT that needs fixing ?

    Mac SE FSHD black screen + loud noise

    Hi, I ended up building a new machine swaping the motherboard, adding some RAM to have a single good working Mac SE. I will try to sell what remains from the other one for parts (CRT is dead).

    Mac SE FSHD black screen + loud noise

    This is indeed the case, there's a blue glow inside the neck of the CRT with a sound similar to the video. I can use this Mac for parts I'm afraid. I got 2 old Mac SE, both have M5011 written at the back, the only difference being one has FHDH written on the front case. With the FDHD CRT...

    Mac SE FSHD black screen + loud noise

    Hi, I bought an old Mac SE FDHD (model 5011) which I'm trying to fix and bring back to life. When I start the Mac, the screen remains black/off and there's a loud noise inside. I opened the case and I took the following photos. I removed the card attached to the screen and it look ok. Any idea ?
