My poor Plus just had its second Analog Board die, most likely C1, as I have the vertical line down the middle of the screen. As I inspect the previous Analog Board I had in it, C…

As far as I know, the memory check can't be turned off in the Memory Control Panel on a Quadra. I seem to recall that it requires a PPC and MacOS8 — possibly 8.5 or 8.6. It require…
