A Macintosh IIci and a Red Maxwell

Hello all,

I've taken a picture of the affected area of the logic board (broken traces have now been repaired):



I done some testing yesterday with the IIfx and SE/30 ROMs. When either of them are used in the IIci no chime or chimes of death are produced; the only sound heard from the speaker is a quiet pop.

Before the traces were fixed the IIfx and SE/30 ROMs did produced a chimes of death or a chime then chimes of death.

This seems like a step back!

What could cause a IIci to start-up without a Chime? I've tried different RAM SIMMs but that does not make to IIci work.

Uniserver,

When I leave the IIci on when attached to a monitor nothing comes on the screen.

I am interested in one of dougg3's ROM SIMMs. Maybe a stripped down version that just works as a IIci ROM?

I hope I'm not flogging a dead horse here!

Thanks

Dont give up hope. Its entirely fixable!

you can pm dougg3, they are all the same price 30.00 unless you can get doug to sell you maybe an older one for less

that would be between you and him.

a rom from him is good to have around anyways.

you could pick up this iici board, this one just needs a cap job…

Hello all,

I've managed to buy a logic board on eBay for a reasonable price. I'll probably remove the capacitors off the old board and reuse them on the logic board that is coming from the US.

Thanks for all the help!
