Should I purchase a floppy module as well as the CD module?

YAY!

I have a 1400c/166 running 7.6.1. No problem.

There are 3 main revisions of the Lisa Hardware, the original with the twiggy drives (Lisa 1), the updated version with one Sony drive (Lisa 2) that is otherwise the same as a Lisa…

I need to find photos, if I have any, of my sold Mac XL. I am starting to think it had that spare cable too now. But its been so long.

The sticker on the case says A6S0300P  Thats why I call it a Macintosh XL. See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compact_Macintosh I find it complicated these names.....

The 220V-240V, 50Hz, .7A PS would be correct for Lisa's in Europe, it's nothing special.  Later Lisa 2/10 (XL) units with the widget drive used a 1.8A PS that was internally 120V-6…

As I told here before my other Lisa has also the "strange unused power connector". See below. It say on the casing also that it is a A6S0300P There is also the PSU I can't find…

Thanks for all the suggestions! I think I'm going to have a look at it this friday, I'll keep you updated with my findings!

The two 26 pin ribbon cables are for the upper and lower twiggy drives, these cables have both data and power in them.  The other 3 wire plug is for nothing, Apple never used this …

And this is why I love this group. Great info here!

The Apple part number may be different on the label, I don't know if it is or what is should be to indicate a 2/10. The normal differences that I look for to indicate a Lisa 2/10 …

Thank you for this update. So this was a formally Lisa! Nice to know! Could you tell me two things: -Is it normal to find a sticker on such a Lisa that indicates that it is a Mac…

1st of all you don't have a Macintosh XL (AKA a Lisa2/10), you have an original Lisa ( Lisa 1 or converted Lisa 2).  The two 26 pin ribbon cables are for the upper and lower twiggy…

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…

You're missing the Widget's power harness. That three pin power cable is for a Twiggy floppy drive and indicates that your Lisa did not start out originally as a Lisa 2/10 or an XL…

if you can clean up the metal then solder will stick... so you can take some flux and some wick,  and with your iron,  rub what ever surfaces that are eaten up,  and maybe those su…

w/e - where am i going to find a better most likely irreparable practice board for pad repair... seriously though I tried a lot of stuff... is there any tip you can think of of how…

i wouldn't say its anything about skill level with this board... i would just say that working on it might not be healthy for one's sanity... that board is F'ed up man.

Fairly sure the pad repair is beyond my skill level.  Tried a bit tonight.  I'll have to clean it before/if I try again.

I just did this, I actually just popped it open with a screwdriver and radioshack sells a 6v 4.5AH battery that fits snugly into the old battery for 20 dollars...

I did not look close at connector. I may be wrong, but there may be two different style connectors. I know not all widgets are the same. Not sure on power. Also it may be an after…

Aha! I tried it on a widget drive I have (wrapped in plastic) and ...yes...it fits! Not sure what the power like cable is for. I see the widget drive needs a more complex power pl…

mactjaap said: OK. How rare are they in the Netherlands? No so. I see one for around 40 dollar offered. A genuine with two disk drives. http://link.marktplaats.nl/m922304692…

Great suggestions everyone. I'd like to dispose of the current cells so will open up, but I also have a replacement battery that is rated exactly the same as the original so may w…
