I know what caps look like. there are none on the top of the mobo. It looks like the 68030 chip is on the bottom too.

Nah, the caps are on the top, like the small "can" like thingies you see on the motherboard. I believe every Mac has caps, but the SE/30/Classic II/Classic/SE/IIci/II/IIx/IIfx/LC …

Aah. I'm assuming the caps are on the bottom of the mobo? Also, what model(s) dont have caps? And the caps appear to be fine. No squeaking noises here!

...And (finally) Pics!

No, the pizza box series does definitely have caps, and when you hear a squeaking sound, it's likely that they are going. I doubt yours has that problem since it would have bee…

Oops! My uploads hung and only the first couple of photos were uploaded. Forgive my ignorince here, but IIRC, aren't the "pizza box" macs one of the few without capiciters?

Alright, piccies: For some reason 3 of 5 of them came out super grainy. And that's 2 megapixels on my phone. My Quicktake 150 takes better pics. Should have used that instead. Oh…

Unfortunately, you are wrong. The Quantum ProDrive ELS that was originally installed in my Macintosh LC 475 died a while back. The Quantum ProDrive LPSes/LTs are the good ones a…

OK... The ProDrive ELS HDs are the good ones, right? Pics still uploading. 13%

Just where ever seems most appropriate. For example, if it's about a 68k PowerBook, then it should go in the 68k PowerBook forum...

What counts as a hack?

The title says it all, which forum is appropriate for hacks now that we don't have a Hacks forum? jt :?:

/me wonders if you were booting with media that had an earlier release than the mini accepts Did you try doing it with the mini's original install? or if the mini came with 10.3, …

And here are the pics!

I will later on this weekend. It seems to be running great. Now all I need is some sort of hard storage, a full install of System 6.0.1, Wolfenstein 3D, and I'll be set!!

Post up some pictures!

Yay I am .11 of all posts!

Well I ripped it to shreds. I installed a DVD Burner and an Airport Card, and its a freaking monster to open. My hands got all cut up. So while there I examined the video cable. It…
