Nice work. Is this a THINK C 5 project?

I can hear your voice and speaking style… IN your posts. 😆 (I have a Sony monitor doing something very similar but it’s waving and rising vertically) I have yet to figure it out. Replaced caps and bridge rectifier and the driver chip.

Yea the solder bridges like that are normal.

These LCDs are a nightmare. I’ve tried to repair two of them end they just got worse and worse. I had one that was perfect then a lone speared one day. Then Another. Then 5 more. Ahhhhg I replaced drivers etc. I think it’s the pads on the glass itself and not the board or the zebra strips.

Cool yeah I’m going to do the portables next. the rocket would be awesome to get running but it’ll be a challenge. It’s in good cosmetic condition. I probed it with the scope and all I see is oscillation from the crystal and the 68040. The 040 gets very warm. I gave up on the iicx board that...

Are you interested in taking a look at it and see if you can make it do something? If so I can ship it to you. My stock pile of bad boards is getting out of hand. I may just sell some unless someone else wants to have a look at them. current list off the top of my head: • this ram card • two...

The lead is also cut off the chip

I noticed that too. No idea it arrived that way.

I got the cards in today. The modem works and the 1MB official Apple RAM card shows up in the finder with a total of 2MB but the other card is not showing up in the finder. I assume it should without the need of any third party drivers or software correct? That would be this card:

Added a power on/off switch so I don’t wear out the micro usb connector. Now it’s perfecto! I’m guessing it’ll get at least 12 hours of runtime.

So power banks don’t work to power the external BlueSCSI because they only pull about 20ma and that’s not enough to keep a USB power bank from shutting off after a few minutes. So I took a 300mah lipo, a usb charging circuit and a 3.7v to 5v boost converter I had lying around and whipped up a...

Nice. TPU might work. What did you model it in?

I miss developing (as a job) in CodeWarrior. Damn OSX and Xcode 🤮 killed it! I just put it on my PowerBook G3 and re-realized how great it was.

I have one on my PB180 display front bezel but the other one is missing. I was thinking of casting the one I have in a silicone mold and then using a higher shore level silicone to pour into the mold and replicate it. Hard part would be matching the color.

I’m running 7.5.3 on a PB180 with BlueSCSI and can set it to never spin the drive down and it’s working. My PB180 has the same “wake from sleep” issue that my Macintosh Portable has. I fixed it on the portable by supplying power to the BlueSCSI from the floppy drive cable. This way power gets...

Hi all, I’m working on a IIcx board repair and need to know if I should be seeing any activity on the NuBus address and data lines when no cards are plugged in. There’s no activity on any of the pins. Just stuck high or low. When I power the board on or hit reset all I get is a sad Mac chime...

Ahh thats what I thought at first but didn't think there was an opening on the case for the jack.

Ahh 2 RAM, Any idea what that other card is with what looks to be a green POT or transformer on top right?

Anyone have some details on what these cards might be? I know one is RAM but what are the others and how much RAM? I dint have them in my possession yet to try them or take better photos but will soon.
