I think your looking for a “IEC C19” cable. Its like a IEC C13, but sideways with fatter blades. 

Yes! Pictures, pictures, pictures please. 

The first picture isn’t loading for me, but the 2nd picture looks like a stock cap.. replace it with this: https://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/Panasonic/ECQ-E2395JB?qs=sGAEpiMZZMv1cc3ydrPrF0%2BjlB8SXIRuf09bNNZbGIg%3D

@HeartletTullius  There are still many 3.5” floppy cleaners on Amazon, eBay, and other sources.  https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2055359.m570.l1313.TR1.TRC0.A0.H0.Xfloppy+cleaner.TRS0&_nkw=floppy+cleaner&_sacat=0...

Could be that the floppies have decayed, could be a bad drive / heads, could be that somehow a 800k drive ended up in the computer,..... Does it read / write any other floppies? Have you tried the new floppies in a different computer?

That’s the weirdest thing I’ve heard of... Can you post pictures. 

There’s a good bit of information in the first paragraph.  https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_Partition_Map

What computer are you using, and what, if any, modifications have been done? Have you tried to format the disk to < 2GB? Some ROMs don’t see more than 2GB correctly. 

Sorry if I left you hanging..... J1 is the connector from the deflection coil on the CRT to the analog board.  There are 4 wires, I think I remember that they’ll be red, blue, green, yellow. I don’t remember the order.  Check the solder joints on the analog board at that connector, and check...

Looks like the typical J1 solder joints.. Repair those, and go over the rest of the analog board. 

Really cool! But I hope that wasn’t the A1075 PoE. I’m looking for one of those.. Do ya have a pic of the bottom side? 

I’m gonna recommend the link above I posted from UniServer.  See if that works out for you, gets you on a good path.  Theres a lot of learning in there. 

The screw is either a #6 or #8, with 32 TPI. From what I remember, it’s an 8. Take it to a hardware store and ask for one in that size that’s stainless.  It’ll cost less than $1 The computer was probably just stored someplace that was humid, moist, or damp. 

You might have some luck with this adapter...

When I first read the heading, I was hoping that you were going to say that you came up with an idea that the rest of us with Classic IIs could create / duplicate. Fooled again! Oh well. I need to finish working on the voltage issues with my Classic II first.....

You can also try holding the mouse button at time of boot, and that should eject the disk.

It looks like replace 2N3904 let us know if that works out for you. 

It doesn’t matter what’s on the HD when you boot from a floppy.. When you insert a floppy at time of boot, the machine looks for a valid system on the floppy disk. If it finds one, it will continue to boot from that floppy disk.  If there’s not a valid system, it will eject the disk, and look...
