Hi, I'm new to 68kMLA and I'm working on repairing my very first Mac Plus. I have three questions and would appreciate any help any of you can provide. Thanks in advance!!!
1. The Mac Plus screen, once fully booted is very slightly shifted to the left. You can see the entire desktop, but the black outline around it is a little thinner on the left then it is on the right. What's wrong, if anything, and what do I do to realign so its even on both sides?
2. When I cold start the machine, it boots up very quickly, but when I reboot, the startup is excruciatingly slow. I just finished installing 4 1MB Simms and the machine responded positively to the upgrade, but that didn't change the slow boot on a reboot. What's up and how do I fix it?
3. Lastly, how do I diagnose and fix an internal floppy drive that will accept and read from a floppy disk, but won't eject, either upon reboot or shutdown or even when I'm trying to swap disks?
If anyone can provide answers to one or even all of these questions, I'd be very, very grateful.
Thanks very much to all for all your help.
