That, is really awesome!
Congrats, and I hope that there will be good unboxing pictures! Even if, as it looks like, it's been unboxed before. [] ]'>
Hey, my iMac G4 gave up the ghost for some reason and I'm not about to fix it right now so I'm putting the 80GB drive inside my quicksilver which already has 2 hard drives. I thoug…

Your advice was spot on! I removed the battery and actually booted without it once and then put the battery back in and booted again. It booted fine both times. This one has a n…

I don't know, it hasn't shipped yet.
I'll find out soon. I'm not too worried about the software since Apple put up System 7 for free. I also have 2 copies of System 7.1 on fl…

Geez you're doing alright! :O Nice machine, looks in good original condition with no yellowing, too. Did you get the disks for all the applications listed on the box?
$76 on eBay! Yehaw! This puppy will sit on my Mac Shrine next to my LC (which I'm getting a new mobo for free from some chap in Oakland tomorrow.) I also bought a 128MB 5v EDO SIM…

Pulling the logic board and replacing caps should not affect your screen focus at all. I should know since I have yanked out my motherboard and put it back in dozens of times with…

What/ where is the text file for the Voodoo cards? I have a Voodoo 5 that one of these days will run an LCD; it'd be handy to have the details squirreled away for that purpose.

If you have a 3dfx VooDoo 3, 4, or 5 video card, the resolutions available for the OS are contained in a simple text file that you can modify. I thought it was pretty nifty, you c…

After excellent dealings with Trag, I replaced (paid technician) to have caps replaced with tantalums. Fixed problem, but now focus is off a bit - but too uncomfortable to view. T…

Can you double check whether you get a mouse arrow in the top left-hand corner of the screen or if you even get a startup tone when you turn it on? Another culprit could be that t…

I agree with JDW. Worst case, a new wire to replace the trace would be installed if the original pads and trace are deteriorated beyond salvaging. Are you going to perform the re…

I'll preface this by saying I have two compact projects going on:
1) A clean, good-physical-condition, working Mac plus to run HappyPlusClock on (nearly 24/7)
2) A "hackintosh pl…

I'm quoting JDW from an older post he had on AppleFritter:
"I have also read about replacing the bourns chip (RP2), but I don't have one handy and I honestly do not see the logic …

After examining your photos, it is clear that your analog board is in good shape. But it is also clear your motherboard is in bad shape, especially in the area of C9. You not onl…

TheNixer,
It sounds like you have a problem with the network filter (RP2) on the SE/30 logic board. So you are correct. Referring this info to the website you linked in your las…

Here are some pictures of the boards and the ram. Let me know what you think. The last two pics look like some of the caps are bad.

I'm wondering if I'm out of luck on this SE/30. It's a liberation that I knew didn't work but I thought I'd try my luck anyway. The great SE/30 repair reference (http://www.biwa.…
