Plus Analog Board C1: Will 4 uF work? — #13
Digikey's 3.9uF cap worked great. Last time C1 blew, I just swapped analog boards. This time I repaired the original analog board by replacing C1 with the Digikey cap, swapped th…

Color Classic Screen Color Issue — #4
It does sound like a dried out solder joint, somewhere in the red line. If it was a dying gun I wouldn't expect it to be intermittent at first.

Had a similar issue - fixed by resoldering the cables going to the analogue board to the PCB plugged into the back of the tube.

The screen of my Color Classic would intermittently go off color - as in the red would become greenish and so on. It was intermittent a few weeks ago, now it seems to be off color…
Plus Analog Board C1: Will 4 uF work? — #12
I just want to point out in answer to the question in my original post, one should not attempt to use a normal 4uF electrolytic (polarized) cap in place of C1. C1 is a bipolar cap…

Replacing C1 fixes one of the major problems with the earliest analog boards, but replacing only that cap won't solve other problems created by other caps that are either weak or d…

If I were set in changing C1 and only C1, it would not matter to me if the price was even $6 total, if that including shipping to me in Japan.
Perhaps it would be more desirab…

I'm not worried about getting a discount on a $3 part. Mine arrived yesterday, I hope to find some time to do the repair and test the board some time this week. I bought a couple…

Sell the extras (for a reasonable price, of course), and you will make back your shipping and could be a benefit some users here (some of whom live outside the United States). But…

Since you're running System 7 there is an easy way to see if an extension or control panel (sometimes referred to as INITs and cdevs by old-timers) is causing a conflict. Start up …

I'll also mention that the whole problem with me unable to get into Open Firmware might have to do with the fact that the computer doesn't understand the keyboard properly. Even no…
G4 Mini going to OSX after linux — #31
I'm impatient so I burned at 8x which is the fastest my burner does (and my media is rated at). It all worked out, and I've got 10.4.11 running on my Mini now. The last image I got…

It's an interesting suggestion. My PB160 has a fairly poor greyscale display (which improves dramatically when set to display Black & White only), and I had a 145b that I h…

It actually turns out that my boot media is all junk. I decided to pop the Debian Linux boot cd I used two years ago and it went right into the boot menu. I've got new media coming…

In my experience, passive matrix screens can have leaked caps, causing screen issues such as a faint display/occasional "yellow-out" issues. I had it happen to a PowerBook 140 and …
