Afternoon folks,
Does anybody recognise these symptoms and have a suggestion where to start looking? This was a working board that I've recapped for my dad. Nothing went badly and it is in good condition overall.
The computer death chimes and then shows this :
Is it possible that the RAM is poorly seated causing this? I've tried it in both banks, but they both have damaged clips (wasn't me or him - previous owner).
I have a IIx ROM in it, the RAM itself is known good and both this RAM and ROM were working in a newer (slightly different board layout) SE/30 earlier in the day.
I have only swapped the logic board compared to previous tests with the other SE/30 board. Analogue board and PSU seem fine and boot an SE and the other SE/30 board.
Pointers welcome I haven't worked on a /30 before.
(Yes, I put the CPU and Video ROM back in after ultrasonic cleaning it after this photo).
