    Macintosh Classic II - Display Issue. Video Output With Corrupted Image

    Yes, agreed, these ones are especially bad for caps being crappy. You will need to recap before you do much more, I'm afraid.

    Macintosh SE/30 replace processor MC68030RC16B to MC68030RC30C

    It is entirely possible your CPU has failed. But if it has, it is not because it is an XC part, it is because in time all things will fail. The fact that your specific one that has failed has XC on the top of it is not really meaningful here, it's just noise.

    G3 AIO / Molar Mac Appreciation Thread

    I do enjoy how much they look like a fever-dream compact, like if I'd spent all day trying to get an SE to work then eaten too much cheese before bed

    Mac Classic II black screen and low voltages?

    Welcome to the forum! The Classic / Classic II analogue board is... of questionable quality, shall we say. You are likely to need to replace the caps on it even if you can't see any leakage, because it gets quite warm and so things can dry out. I would personally suggest doing that before...

    Tokamac Nubus card? Need help identifying

    Well, this is the problem @Bolle alluded to above - you can't really clone the card without also cloning the modification to the IIfx LB, and that isn't available for cloning. As @Unknown_K says, the cloner wouldn't be able to check that their clone actually was correct or worked unless the...
