Thanks I think I start by harvesting the the nicest chips from the one you circle off the damaged board and then start swapping them in I'll be honest I'm ok at soldering not great so will see how it goes. Given the condition of the power supply I'm happy that appear to be working I measure the...

Thanks for the tip, I see signs of cap goo any tip for clean I did IPA and a Q-tip and it help a bit, but I still see residue. It doesn't look like any of the pins have separate from the pads but I'll be honest my eyesight isn't as good as it use to be. While I was taking a second stab at...

Decided to do a bit of recapping this weekend recapped a color classic logic board that wasn't boot success. recapped an SE/30 logic board with low sound success but in the process and with a little help determined that the analog board need to be recapped. Next up was a IIsi that wouldn't...

Any suggestion for other proxy services I'm thinking I'm going to give FromJapan a try. In the end this worked out but if it weren't for the Sonnet Presto LC it would have been more than I would have wanted to spend. Also had the experience of consolidating shipping and it was more expensive by...

Did the board swap and confirmed the recapped logic board was fine. So I'll be ordering the analog cap kit

Thanks for the tip I'm going to do a logic board swap to confirm since I have two system, but it may be time to consider recapping the analog board as well. I think the next Mac to recap will be my IIsi that doesn't power on I already have the power supply and logic board kits from console5...

Recapped the logic board on this color classic and now it's working. Recapped one of my SE/30 logic boards and now I'm having issues with the video. Picture is good relatively speaking but it shakes and shrinks/expands on the right side. I'm going to swap boards tomorrow and double check my work.

I did something similar in a pinch since I didn't have a long enough network cable and a lack free ports on my router. I wired my SE/30 to an old airport express it worked fine and if you don't already have one they are very cheap used

Thanks for the recommendation I'm thinking Bolle's card is the best option. The grayscale card would be great as well but I scared to think how much they might cost.

I have two of these now, I didn't want to butcher my nicer one so yes. I've got a harness and a 6500 Logic Board. I'll probably start working on the Takky in the next few weeks. I also have to a few other repair projects that I need to finish. Replace the backlight on my working 2400c waiting on...

yep in the end it worked out, but boy I was thinking what did I do. On the plus side everything beside that logic board is working and in good shape no damage to the case since it shipped in the original box. But I do think I'll have to be a bit more careful about buying on Buyee to avoid...

Thanks, that is helpful I'll see if I can find something similar on Amazon's US site.

Figured I ask for suggestions on the best way to proceed Fixing up my SE/30 so far recapped the logic board and installed a BlueScsi, MACSIMM rom and 64mb of ram. plus a Farallon PDS NIC connected to an old Airport express since I'm out of free ports on my router. I also have a couple Asante...

Thanks for the comments I went ahead order a cap kit for the logic board which doesn't seem to be working. Haven't really dug into it besides putting my good board in the new system and it booted. I move the Sonnet Presto to my other Color Classic Logic Board found the extension for it and it's...

boy my feeling are hurt i figured someone would reply with that's cool, oh well. guess it's back to work and buying old mac stuff on buyee and ebay.

I'm a total lurker enjoy reading posts, but figured I'd share this experience. I have a color classic, but I wanted one to make a Takky. I figured I'd try buyee bought one with accessories keyboard and the other stuff that came in the box bid roughly $80 and won for some reason I figure shipping...
