I sorta remember a fuse on the ADB port 5V line. Don't have a II cx to look at, but have a squint at the mobo for a little surface mount chip labelled F-something. There is also a …
My Quadra 605 running MacOS 7.6 does not see the shares on my FreeBSD 7.2 with Netatalk running. I can confirm that afpd and atalkd are running.
The network is currently Q605 -&am…
You might be able to fix it, sounds like you blew up something on the data side of the ADB. I think if there was fusing it would only be for the power side but I don't have the sch…

now my ADB ports don't seem to work at all, except for the power button on the keyboard. The Mac boots normally, but the keyboard and mouse aren't responsive. They both work fine w…
