install 8.1 ?  

And I believe it is OpenTransport, I dont think they had MacTCP with System 7.6, i may be wrong though...

Yea...the connection light is on, and the link light is blinking. Just no communication. And, if it helps, I'm using a Faralon Ethernet Tranciever.

I'm assuming its running Open Transport? DHCP isn't supported by MacTCP. My "official" Apple AAUI 10BaseT dongle on my PM6100 is very touchy. I have to wiggle the Ethernet plug in…

Well damn, im running system 7.6 lol

I had heck getting mine to work. 7.5 it played nice with the adapter, 7.5.5 seemed to break it. Finally gave up after a while.

It's possible, they dont look like they have leaked, but it couldnt hurt, any other ideas?

Yeh I can't see too many circumstances where the brightness would need to be hard-altered unless an actual compoonent was failing and causing the screen to dim... there seems to be…

Yes, but its controlled via software anyway. So it more of a way to hardware set the max brightness.

That would make  a degree of sense also given the lack of external brightness control knob. Cheers!

Brightness is lower I think. Upper is either contrast or focus - I use it to sharpen the display.

There was no result of the initial powerup, but C12, Y1 and D1 were all missing.  The analog board seems to be fine, and (if I'm not misremembering), there was power to both the fl…

128K, 512K, Pluses and SE's rarely need a logic board recap. But they do need work on the analog board. Check for cracked solder connections on harness connectors to the logic boar…

Its salvageable. The 190 needs to be taken apart and and cleaned out first. The case where corrosion is found can be cleaned with  baking soda rub down and rinsed out with water an…

They usually dont. But they are at the age of bad caps so anything is possible

I guess I'm very lucky. The mainboard of my new Plus looks phenomenal. Just a bit of dust. It has 4 MB installed. The caps on the mainboard are of normal axial type: 5x 33uF, 16 V…

Ok, thanks. I still would like to have a complete list of all caps (analogue and digital board) for reference. So far I found one for the analogue board: http://www.jagshouse.com/…

I soldered the connectors on the analog board with some new solder and the flickering stopped. Maybe it will do the trick with your Plus too.

Is there a list of capacitors for replacement available? I searched here and in the web but did not find one. TIA, bobo68

Probably something loose on the analog board.

oh dear - acid spill - ah well - you might be fixing that for a long time. Have you tried to power it up? - any results based on what I have seen of these acid spills you have a…

The Y1 piezo was killed by the battery acid. Same with D1. Both are replaceable. I removed the battery holder.

There are radial caps, may want to change them for good measure.

I hate to tell you pal but your missing more than a pad on C12 there The Y1 crystal is missing along with D1 transistor. The battery holder is also gone............did you remove…
