Ahh, you might want to check the date of that article, because...well...obviously it doesn't.

Not bad. I hope for your sake the RAM has been upgraded - even though they use Duo RAM (which if you can find a Duo, is easy enough to find), they require a special right angle …

Okay. I've checked the AC power cord and I'm getting power from the wall. About 120.2VAC. So I will rule that part out. I've went ahead and pulled the power supply unit and the…

Ladies and Gentleman: For those in need of recapping your SE/30 logic boards due to Simasimac symptoms, I can still commit myself to doing the work. Unfortunately, due to a sudde…

Ortencia, You'll need to open up the case and remove the "mobo", aka Logic Board in Apple Computer terms. This is the circuit board on the very bottom of the SE/30. Once the log…

Thanks for replying back about that. I figured as much. But no doubt someone out there has stock of them. I cannot imagine that NASA and the US Military would have snapped them …

The PDS slot for the IIci and the LC PDS slot are two completely different interfaces, unfortunately. The Presto was also only made for the LC series.

I have a Presto 040 that came with an LC computer I bought. Were there two physically different cards for the LC and II series Macs? Or was it just one card, but had an adapter f…

The best SSD for the SE/30 is a drive that is made in the stock form factor (3.5") and already has a 50-pin SCSI connector. Indeed, one probably couldn't do much better than this:…

Thanks! No, actually just trying to save them from being scrapped. Unfortunately you can't save them all and I'm getting run out of my house!

If you can't find a schematic following the traces and using a continuity tester should reveal the location of the fuse.

How about a Bolo tracker?

My pismo was a 500MHz unit with 1mb of L2 cache and 512mb of memory and I noticed fairly acceptable performance under both Panther and Tiger. The difference is minimal, and I tende…

Hey, nice find. Post a pic.

I picked up a PowerBook 150 in excellent condition for $10. It works perfectly and seems to even have a working battery. The drive is empty but I'll be booting it up later tonight …

thanks. i found the site again; it tells of a IIfx in a similiar situation. different motherboards obviously. shouldn't i be able to find this out with a copy of the schematics of …

Yeah. I'm still curious as to why give up Admin status... Not able to afford the time anymore to keep the forums up and running? Thanks for keeping this wonderful site up and run…

Mobo = Motherboard (otherwise known as the main logic board). The ADB Fuse is located on the motherboard...I'm unaware of the exact location, or how easy it is to replace - we have…

On behalf of the entire board, thanks for administering the forum over the past few years. Your dedication to the forum, especially in light of the server failures we've had, was m…

what do you mean "mobo?"

No it's the mobo.

Actually, its liquid nitrogen you need, and unfortunately the 1 Ghz speedup only works with the Plus, not the SE. [)] ]'> http://homepage.mac.com/schrier/plus.html Click t…

Even though yours didn't explode, it's likely the power filter capacitor that released its magic smoke. have a read through this: Apple ///: burned Power Supply and this: Apple…
