Right. I've heard that but so far so good.

Not sure. It's one of the boards Colin got in the group buy.

It would be cool if I actually knew what the exact culprit was all along. Sockets everywhere and I did push out some of the connection pins on the VIA sockets then cleaned it again. Switched it on last night expecting the simasimac I've seen forever and it chimed...I stared at it in disbelief as...

The one I have seems to be stronger plastic like SE's and SE/30's...Shipped with no damage at all. They don't seems as brittle as the Power Mac 7200 etc. which crumble when you look at them.

Chime, flashing ? and working ADB. Thanks for the help!!

got the new card. Everything is working 100% now. So in my spare time I'll work on the other card. Thanks again.

if there are 11 posts over years those are regarding four different SE/30s three of which are in 100% perfect condition now. I'm simply working on a reloaded board for the last 12 months or so off and on. Be well and try to relax.

Man what I'd give for a sound control panel and corresponding operating system lol...yeah it's just a simasimac screen at the moment.

Absolutely. Thanks.

Definitely a great idea. I was going to look into Recon. Thanks.

reloaded board so no cap leakage.

Ah man, so sorry to offend...a year off and on yes. You are one world class grumpy ole codger though so congrats on that one. All the stuff you mention is fine.

Simasimac. No sound. NMI switch functions mechanically but has no effect (does have continuity to GLUE pin 9 and RP8 pin 1). What would you check first with an oscilloscope for the most basic, necessary elements to pass the POST?

got it...I don't suppose there's a schematic for the BCGM0322 anywhere?

Right. I guess the issue is the refresh rate being 67mhz or above for some LCD's?

Exactly. All I want is 256 colors 640x480...is that too much for a man to ask in the 21st century?

by just swapping in a 25MHz 68030 etc ?

https://ebay.io/m/hhKLpo this one's totally different but I'm just looking for a good 640x480 256 colors and I'm happy.

thanks so much for your help. I guess the next step would be to put the scope on various parts of the card but I'm just lost as far as what to look for. I did order another video card. Just couldn't help myself 50 bucks on eBay so that will definitely narrow things down. hopefully that card...
