Hi,
It's been a while since I visited here, but it's good to be back. A recent rescue:
I just saved a Color Classic from someone who was about to bring it to the recyclers, and would like to nurse it back from its current non-functional state.
I do have another CC which is working, so I could potentially do some testing there if needed.
So far, I did the following -
- removed the logic board, and tried to power up without it. The fan comes on, so I'm thinking this means the analog board/power supply are at least partially good.
- removed PRAM battery, replaced logic board, tried to boot again. No response at all when the power key on the keyboard is pressed.
- tried leaving it plugged in for a few hours and then tried to boot. Still nothing.
And I am using a known good ADB keyboard.
I also noticed that this CC has an ethernet card in it, which is nice.
Any ideas about where to start looking?
Also I remember reading somewhere here that you can upgrade a CC with an LC 575 board. I have an LC 475, I'm guessing you can't use this logic board in the CC?
Thanks for the help in advance!
