Hello. I recently got my hands on a dead Mac Plus (no sound, no video, no nothin') and managed to get it to the point it chimes, and gives a really dim, distorted video output (see attached). I think the LB is OK since I can see the ?disk icon so I've been concentrating on the AB when the...

Hi! I picked up an imac Bondi Blue this past week, and managed to get everything restored and working (dead hard drive replaced with n SSD, OS loaded), with the exception of the CD-ROM drive. It's D-E-D dead. The drive doesn't spin up, or eject when the button is pushed. Does anyone have any...

So the analog board I finally got working a couple weeks ago? Is broken again. I powered up the Classic II this morning, and the image on screen was oversized on the horizontal axis. I tried the horizontal size pot on the back and nothing happened. I expected the size to shrink/expand on the...

Hello, I'm hoping someone can help me with a Classic AB voltage issue I'm having. I got a dead (not even the fan spun up) machine cheap figuring a recap and a cleaning would bring it back to life as it has on other machines I've worked on. I replaced the capacitors on both the AB and LB, as...

So I cleaned up some boxes in the basement, an look what I found. Stil MIA is the keyboard, and the power adapters, but otherwise complete. Anyone have a solution for the sticky feeling that's built up over the years? I'm guessing it's from the degradation of the rubber coating.

Short story: I need to recap a LC 520 analog board, and it looks like a CC AB. Do they share the same AB, so I can use the CC cap list to order from? Long story: I bought an LC520 out of Japan listed as "junk' with the hopes of using the LB to upgrade one of my CC machines to a CCII. I took...

OK, stupid newbie user question. I just got my second CC (mostly) working, but the display comes up in Japanese (which is where it came from; I don't speak or read the language) and in my defense I've always had to reload the OS and have chosen English on my Macs. Is there an easy way to...

I know it's a long shot but my Google-fu is weak and not turning up anything. Does anyone out there have CC II schematics? I just got a battery bombed LB and they would help me repairing it. Thanks, C

Many thanks to all of you who knowingly (and unknowing) helped me with chips, knowledge and encouragement. I have a working CC again, but by way of a very weird path. I recently bought a second unit that was described as junk, and for parts only in the hopes of getting enough bits to make my...

Help! I've been working on getting a color classic running for a bit. Thanks to @jajan547 I got a set of working ROMs that got the board up and running long enough to install a hard drive and System 7.5. The whole thing started and shutdown when told to several times, and the only thing not...
