Five or six years ago I made preventive recapping on both my LC & LCII before leaking appears... They were still working fine since (Pram battery never did any damage since I always remove them when I get a mac). Two years ago I wanted to try something with my LC... disk span, fan too but no startup sound nor video! I didn't have time to investigate further in the moment.

Today to try to answer Uniserver's question about emulated HD20 from BMOW, I brought up my LC II. It booted normally, even SCSI hard drive was working perfectly. I turned it off for a moment cause I had something else to do. When I turned it back on a while later... same symptoms as LC1, scary!!

I've read somewhere that defective power supplies could be the reason. I brought up my LC475, it works well. I tried its supply in both LC1 and LCII with no results... I tried both LC1 & LC2 power supplies in the LC475, it works!! Supplies don't seem to be faultives...

What can make my LCs die like this :'(
