    Color Classic no sound output via internal speaker or headphone out but issue is NOT analog board.

    Color Classic no sound output via internal speaker or headphone out but issue is NOT analog board.

    With no sound chip on the board, it will fire up from soft power on keyboard, but will not go further than a grey screen, no cursor.

    What is a Performa 450 Demo Unit and what is this weird layout/component?

    I’m afraid I have no idea, mission was to recap, and maybe remove wire from egret, and see if it still functions. I think at this point I will leave as it is.

    Macintosh Classic with horizontal interference

    Hi all, this has been totally recapped, analogue and logic, but I’m getting what only can be described as interference on screen, both sides. I expect you’ll tell me it’s a cold joint somewhere, I just cannot narrow it down, any help would be much appreciated, thanks

    Classic II - chimes and boots normally, but no CRT image

    Ok, so I re soldered the joints on the usual suspects, and reflowed on some others,  restarted and I have an image. it’s very dark, and only 50/50 , the board powers a hard disk and floppy drive, but they do not allow a boot process to start

    Classic II - chimes and boots normally, but no CRT image

    Did anybody come up with the solution to this problem? I have exactly the same symptoms, I’ll resolder some joints today. the board has been totally recapped, so I’m hoping that should do it.
