It was just the video card, switch out some faceplates cards etc and found a working AGP ATI 3d with no glitches

I've got you on this....I have 3 Powerbook 180c; multiple years ago entered rabbit hole Powerbook 180c 1 boots OK but the screen has a line right through the middle of it so the LCD caps have probably dissolved something or at lear need replacement Powerbook 180c 2 is in pieces but worked...

There is a persistent graphics glitch on on recently obtained Cube. Attached are pictures with the computer booted and the other is the pattern on the screen between shutdown and complete power off, i just thought it showed the pattern the best. The glitch to the right of the mouse moves with...

A little tangent; in about 2015 or 16 I found a local auction and picked up 2two SE/30's and a plus for about 60 bucks. It was my introduction to the existence retro/mod/support community out there. I found a thread on the other site with instructions of how to put a Radius II SI card into an...

Here's a picture of one side of a full page Radius I have in an SE; looks similar to above but if you see anything that could be helpful I could disassemble and be more specific.

If anyone is interested in a non working 7100 cache with its AV9170 shorted to ground, I’ll send it.

Thanks. So it looks like that on chip VDD is shorted to ground. I found another cache and it works fine.

How did it go?

I have a C2N Datasette that will not load tapes. I've looked at the schematics, have put an oscilloscope on the read heads, watched several repair videos/tuning instructions. I also have a working SD2IEC. Why do I care if the C2N Datasette works or not?

Just checking for grounds on the caps and IC's, the small IC in the center on the backside picture has pins 5 and 7 to ground....cannot find a data sheet on it though....the numbers are AV70-1 then 9508 on the IC itself...?anyone know what specifically I should search for to find a data sheet...

Here is the other side. The other chip I guess is the ROM, the machine will boot with the ROM in either slot if the pictured chip is absent.

Is this a picture of the 7100/80 L2 cache? If it is, is it worth replacing for computer function. I have a 7100/80 using the DB15 for video and if this chip is installed the computer will not boot but does boot when I remove it.

No; east TN; I maybe interested in one if you can just ship the board. I have areas of the battery bombed one soaking in WD40; wishful thinking multiple traces seem to be gone.

I have been looking for a Iici locally for several years and actually bought a "lot" of computers to get this one. Even when I heard something shaking around, it still never occurred to me.

Yes....great job. I've done a couple of IIsi and the daughterboard on the power supply slows me to a stop.
