Hey,

I bought a Macintosh SE at the weekend and was so excited for it to arrive. When it eventually did arrive i turned it on to be welcomed with an electricity sort of crackling sound and a blank screen. 8-o

Now after extensive googling i have come up with a theory (now i don't know much about what goes on inside and a daren't/don't have the tools to open it up) but could it bee that the little glass vaccum tube on the CRT has broken during transportation?

Please help clarify this and if so can it be repaied or must i get a new screen to replace it :'( - more money ;P
