Now the G5 has a head again... those underlid shots. This thing is spotlessly clean inside! Next one to test will be the IIsi... allegedly has PSU issues. As for the 9600, no …

I have my Performa 475 hooked up to the vga port on my HDTV (using a vga adapter and a vga cable), the HDTV complains a little (complaining about resolution mismatch) when it first…

Well I have another confirmed runner to add to this thread... the IIvx I scored as part of my Canberra haul finally got plugged in and fired straight up with a clean install of 7.5…

Cheers for the infor guys! Yes I must admit I am loving this whole SYstem 7 on an LCD experience... beautiful! This 1501 was chucked in with my current G5 when I bought it and …

So, would this translate to new motherboard time then?

Basically any Dell UltraSharp is a great choice, they tend to pretty much take any input.

Hi Schmoburger, Like you I have a 15" LCD (NEC white which matches the 68K machines nicely) which suits my needs perfectly well, along with a 10" Lillput VGA LCD for bench testing…

Welp, took a dive and it paid off... Never has System 7.5 looked so great! { "lightbox_close": "Close", "lightbox_next": "Next", "lightbox_previous": "Previous", …

Heck, I've run my Quadra 700 on a 32" Bravia! You just need the right converter and monitor. I've also run it on two different 22" LG monitors.

As the title suggests, I am jonesing for some info regarding the use of modernish TFT displays on pre-PPC Macs, as I have a couple of VGA adaptors and limited space. I assume the o…

Thanks Elfen!  Next week I'll have an exam break at university, so I hope I'll have a couple of days to give this little boy some care. Seems like a reasonably easy fix, at least …

This is probably an international analog board, the capacitor references will be different...

It's possible, they dont look like they have leaked, but it couldnt hurt, any other ideas?

There was no result of the initial powerup, but C12, Y1 and D1 were all missing.  The analog board seems to be fine, and (if I'm not misremembering), there was power to both the fl…

128K, 512K, Pluses and SE's rarely need a logic board recap. But they do need work on the analog board. Check for cracked solder connections on harness connectors to the logic boar…

Its salvageable. The 190 needs to be taken apart and and cleaned out first. The case where corrosion is found can be cleaned with  baking soda rub down and rinsed out with water an…

They usually dont. But they are at the age of bad caps so anything is possible

I guess I'm very lucky. The mainboard of my new Plus looks phenomenal. Just a bit of dust. It has 4 MB installed. The caps on the mainboard are of normal axial type: 5x 33uF, 16 V…

Ok, thanks. I still would like to have a complete list of all caps (analogue and digital board) for reference. So far I found one for the analogue board: http://www.jagshouse.com/…

I soldered the connectors on the analog board with some new solder and the flickering stopped. Maybe it will do the trick with your Plus too.

Is there a list of capacitors for replacement available? I searched here and in the web but did not find one. TIA, bobo68

Probably something loose on the analog board.

Sorry for the topic, could not resist.  I just acquired a US Macintosh Plus in nice (outside) condition. It is a 1987 model. It even came with a voltage transformer as it wa…

Hi folks, it's me again! My usual "luck" has brought me a PowerBook 190 in mint condition that was supposed to be working, but actually it isn't. Let me explain. I found this Powe…
