Perfect! Thank you.

Hi All, Just wondering if anyone know where I can get the 3D print file (STL) for the Mystic backplate which includes the port symbols. I found the attached file but it doesn't have the port logos and looking for the better version? Thanks macsonny

So I got a bit frustrated trying to use a BLUESCSI internally and dug out an old SCSI drive to see if that would work on the internal SCSI chain. It worked fine so it's clearly a setup issue with my BLUESCSI. I formatted the SD card as ExFAT and Master Boot Record config. I then got a pre-built...

Hi All, Recently picked up a CC and upgraded with LC575 and MYSTIC mod. Also recapped the main board. Odd little issue. Unit will boot fine off an external BLUESCSI unit. I have multiple BLUESCSI units and they all seem to work for external booting. However, when trying to boot off internal...

SUCCESS!!! Well, I'm pleased to report back the machine is now booting perfectly. I replaced UD8, UE8 and UF8. I'm not sure which one was the culprit but based on the above I suspect it was UE8. Thanks for everyone's input and support. Now to go fully restore to it's former glory!

Hi All, Just a quick update. I have removed IC's UD8, UE9 and UF8. Cleaned up the pads and it all actually looks fairly good per photos. Unless anyone can see an issue I'm going to replace all these ICs with a bunch I bought from MOUSER. Anything else before I start soldering?

Well, I finally got some time to re-look at the Mac SE/30. I reflowed all the caps and found one cap that wasn't soldered at the end. They are all now done and still getting the horrible screen issue. Next I'm going to start work on the UD8........ Will report back.

Yeah, looking closer at the caps I think you are right. I inherited this SE/30 and the re-cap was done by the previous owner. I'm going to have another go at them over the weekend. Well done for spotting the solder job or lack there of! I'm also going to do a bit of buzzing for continuity on...

No, didn't remove the chips. Hoping I could reflow without the hassle of removing. This is going to be a big job :-(

Hello All, Thank you so very much for each of your input. To explain what I've done: 1. Cleaned and reflowed UF8, UE8 and UD8. 2. Cleaned and reflowed both the SONY chips. 3. Cleaned and reflowed UD12 and UE12 where the pins look corroded. Cleaned and reflowed pins that looked corroded around...

Just the motherboard. But I did put the faulty SE/30 motherboard in a known good SE/30 chassis/power board and got the same results so I figure the issue is the motherboard.

Which ones specifically?

Hi All, I have recently picked up a Mac SE/30 that boots fine but has a horrible wavy horizontal picture distortion as per attached pic. The unit has been recapped and I tested the board in a known good machine with the same result which makes me thing it's a motherboard issue. I did give it...

Sweet. Do they have a similar solution for the Mac SE or Mac SE/30 do you know?

I just left a gap between the bezel of the compact Mac and the LCD screen. Looking front on you can't see the gap anyway. Each to their own.

Yeah, I found 9.7" was a little large but after modifying the under scan it now looks perfect. Very happy.

Found an app called BetterDisplay. Worked a treat!

Hi All, I've placed a Mac mini into a Mac SE/30 case and then installed a 9.7" iPad screen with driver board to create a cool little Mac unit. I plan on running a Classic Mac emulator on this unit. One issue I have is that the screen size is bigger than the size of the Mac SE/30 front panel...

Happy days!!!!

Just removed the U7 and starting some testing now. Will report back.....
