Is there a separate volume control for the audio port on the back? My internal speaker is not working and so I thought I would see if it is the audio chip or the traces or just the speaker connector, which is really loose in my machine. So I plugged my headphones in and booted up the Mac...

Is there a guide somewhere on how to open all of these different game images? I'm talking about the images from macintoshgarden or myabandonware, etc. The 1.44mb img ones are easy, I just use WinImage. The ones that I am struggling with are the 800k and 400k .dsk files. If I open them in Windows...

I just downloaded 7.1 this morning from here: http://macintoshgarden.org/apps/mac-os-71 I used WinImage on an XP Pro machine to make the floppy disks and it loaded up fine on my SE. No issues at all.

New components will arrive in the mail Thursday. I just reinstalled the logic board following its second ammonia and water bath. After the first scrubbing, it still looked a bit dingy around where the battery had leaked. So this time, I heat d up the water a bit, soaked the board in it for 30...

I ordered the one from Mouser, and I ordered the capacitors from the too. Kemet brand, 0.1uf, 50V axial.

These battery holders look like they have a sprIng on the negative end. Would that make them too long for the spot on the board? Or do I mount it somewhere off the board and use a pair of wires to connect it back to the box?

So should I order 100 of the yellow axial 0.1uf 50v caps from eBay for $5.00? I'm bound to need more than one, right?

The are orange on the ends and brownish-grey in the middle. Would they be the same as the yellow ones in your picture? Mine looks exactly like the C10s in these pictures: http://www.ccadams.org/se/SE-800k-logic.jpg https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/65/Apple_Macintosh_SE_Main_PCB.jpg

I need to order the battery and holder but I also need to order the bad capacitor. Problem is, I cannot read the writing on it. It is labeled C10 on the logic board and it is right above the speaker connector. Before I removed the battery, the startup sound was working, but was a bit weak and...

My SE's HD light is yellow. Didn't know there were other colors. I like yellow. It feels more old school. In fact, imma call it amber. My SE's HD light is "amber".

I really meant that as a compliment. Because you know so much about what I am going through with this machine that you are just as helpful as if you were here with me in person. All of you do really. Anyways... I just finished giving the entire logic board a scrub in 20/80 ammonia and...

The drive that came with it is a Miniscribe and the one I got from the Craigslist guy is a Quantum 40mb. Lol. It's like you have been watching me. You really know what I am going through here. My Craigslist friend did say that the Quantum was tested and working. I like the idea of the scsi2sd...

Thanks. I did know about the jumper and I removed it when I put the four 1mg sticks in. I actually found that same article with google last night when I was preparing for the job. This is good advice. I have two drives, but I don't know if either are any good. I have the one that came with the...

I removed the battery. The metal contact on the left side of the battery in the picture just fell off as soon as I tried to move the battery at all. I cleaned the board with electronics safe and plastic safe contact cleaner. Should I use alcohol instead? Anyhow, every since I added the 4mb of...

I did find a bad cap - C10, just to the right of the battery holder. The lead on the battery end is completely gone. Anyone know what C10 does? And which cap I need to buy to replace it?
