    Re-capped SE/30 still with bad video

    Great! Thanks... I love having schematics for my machines. I've freshened the solder on the VRAM (the two chips near the SIMM banks, labeled 41264). Then I've been checking continuity according to the schematics (especially SE30_P5.GIF) for UE6, UE7, UG6, UG7, UE8, and UF8. So far...

    So far, I haven't found a short. The board looks clean (any corrosion from the leaked caps appears to be superficial and cleaned up nicely) and I don't know enough about the board to try to track down a short with an ohmmeter. The board has 4 4 MB SIMMs (in banks 1 and 2) and 4 1 MB SIMMs. I...
