I'm pretty sure that it's a 5500/6500 Logic board

Tonight's project was to get the CC playing nice over Ethernet, which then turned into installing  and setting up MacTCP and finally after some degree of fiddling and tweaking sett…

thanks haplain - will do the vinegar.........jasus im gonna stink!!

Hello, I'm not sure able acetone. I do know that vinegar will neutralize the acid but not entirely sure about acetone. I would do vinegar and water mixture (50/50) then rinse with…

thanks for the reply haplain. - im going to clean the whole board then recap it. - I read somewhere that when you wash  the board in acetone in stops any futher decay from the …

The card with the heat sink is a Sonnet 400Mhz accelerator. They are quite rare. They came in 300/400/500Mhz. The 500's are really tough to find.  I would clean that ROM slot but …

just had a good look at the main board with my magnifying glass - on the back of the board there is corrosion but I don't see any compoinents missing. Will have to go very very eas…

got it apart lads. - found a great guide online - heres what the bones of this tam looks like - its not good!!! - see the green INSIDE the rom slot -aaarrggghhhhh!!!! - aga…

Nice find! I'm sorry to hear about the corrosion, though. It might be repairable, but in the worst case, if you need a new logic board, I think like 360alaska said, you can get on…

That's the button, If you end up needing a logic board I believe there are a few that will swap in... Also, is that a G3 cache slot accelerator? those are pretty rare!

ok - have to have a go at this thing so - is it true that acetone neutralizes the acid decay? - plan on talking out the board and washing the bejasus out of it with acetone - …

I don't think the TAM is impossible to fix. But I bet the back of the board is a mess.

ah jasus nooooooooooooooo - looking at those pictures I can see green on all the via's under where the battery was - noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

hi 360 alaska took a few pics of the mainboard is the reset button the one outlined with the white line Got a bad scare when I first looked inside this....the harddrive was half…

Sounds like a good candidate for recycling heavily damaged/busted up case plastics using olde school techniques: Cut texture matched flat panel section of case to fit SE's floppy …

Congrats on your TAM find Of course it will probably need caps...Did you try the reset button on the logic board?

what a score................I got me a TAM baby!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!...............Oh happy day - The tam is not working..........I know nothing about them. - took off back cover…

oh.........here is the other yoke I picked up ------------- .....................

How we doing people Spent yesterday galavanting all over the country ... did 300 miles - and it resulted in the following finds - a mac classic 2 and Toshiba laptop and a zeni…

Man, I never really knew I needed this until now. Would be cool to have one to cover the floppy slot actually.

You have a 3D printer? Nice. I don't know of a 3D model of the drive cover, but if someone has an SE drive cover and a 3D scanner, they could scan it in.

Too bad you "HAD" that 5300, Bibilit. Not only is there problems with the power connection on the 190/5300 but sometimes when the battery leaks, the PSU Area (under the trackpad) i…

The floppy drive is pretty easy to service, remove the two small springs by the side of the drive, the black plastic guide for the heads and remove the top metal mechanism. Clean …
