I had a few bad Macintosh Conquests lately.  From a local recycler I got a Powerbook 140 & a Macintosh IIcx which don't work.  The Powerbook is beyond help, the Macintosh I…

That is just plain weird. I've seen a lot of odd electronics, but never a chip-on-chip socket like that. 

Oh butts. Oh well. Live and learn.......

Here's a pic of both.

I think there's also a device you can buy just for doing low-level formats without the need of a ProFile card and special ROM.  I seem to recall seeing one on eBay.

I am posting this from my recently conquered and initially troublesome, but now operational 9600/200MP which I received as some of you might recall from a member a couple of hundre…

I have tested all keys and there is no problem, I think that I have an oscillation due to a faulty component in the sound circuit.

Yeh I can't see too many circumstances where the brightness would need to be hard-altered unless an actual compoonent was failing and causing the screen to dim... there seems to be…

Yes, but its controlled via software anyway. So it more of a way to hardware set the max brightness.

That would make  a degree of sense also given the lack of external brightness control knob. Cheers!

Brightness is lower I think. Upper is either contrast or focus - I use it to sharpen the display.

So, under that cover panel on the Classic just above the power switch, there are what appear to be two unlabelled adjustable potentiometers or such on the analogue board... I've ne…
