Hello all, I just bought a Macintosh 128k, and am having issue with the keyboard, or any system program that uses the keyboard (notepad, key caps) There is no input at all, and when opening the programs, cause the system to freeze and the screen to display garbage.
The motherboard is a replacement with a 512k mod. I have the original and plan to swap the bad RAM this weekend. It's worth noting that I got my boot disks from rescuemyclassicmac, and the only disk that works is the Guided Tour disk, system 1.1 does not work, it just hangs on the welcome screen.
As I wrote this, I turned off the computer and something popped loudly and blew up, spewing smoke everywhere. I took it outside and took it apart, but I couldn't find anything that looked blown. Nervously, I plugged it back in, and it just booted perfectly as if nothing happened. Loaded straight into the tour disk. Should I recap the power board or leave it? What could've popped? Thanks for any help. The computer is currently sitting outside unplugged.
