    How to resurrect a Macintosh Portable?

    Hi, I recently acquired my third (and of course non working) M5120 on ebay, the battery is dead as expected but apart from that the whole thing seems in excellent condition, even no (or at least very very little) caps leaking on the board! After some attempts to boot it without success, the...

    Macintosh original demo disk...

    Just tried it... Great work!!! :D I copied the contents on a 1440k image (it fits) so I can boot my classic from either emu or real floppy ;)

    Macintosh original demo disk...

    A 800k MFS disk, maybe but I don't know if sony had double sided drives prototypes at this time... For the HD20, it's unlikely since the DCD protocol wasn't already invented!

    LCs are driving me nuts...

    Ok but why does my LC475 boot properly with these 3 supplies?? One of them isn't TDK but a thing like "Dyna Comp, inc."

    LCs are driving me nuts...

    Five or six years ago I made preventive recapping on both my LC & LCII before leaking appears... They were still working fine since (Pram battery never did any damage since I always remove them when I get a mac). Two years ago I wanted to try something with my LC... disk span, fan too but no...
