Some progress updates but more problems now.... :(



I managed to fix the video problem :) :) :) . Seems I was right about my initial diagnosis, I traced it back to a faulty via. Tried reflowing it but no good so I had to run a wire. Man that board is staring to look like a plate of spaghetti...

What's the best way to fix those vias? There is continuity between top and bottom of the via but the internal layer is not connected.

So MAcTestPro Ok'ed the logic board but I still have no SCSI. Harddrive works OK in my SE, but SE30 doesn't see anything on the bus.

Looks like this is going to be a bit trickier to diagnose than the video prob, 'cos I don't know what's wrong. Back to the schematics I suppose!

Any idea would be much appreciated.

Ta!

Ps: three cheers to the person that originally uploaded those SE30 schematics. Legend! 8-)
