    Hardware/software you have that no one talks about.

    My PT-10 brother label printer, there is like one short on it on youtube and no teardown guides. So I am waiting till it totally stops working to recap it. It even has a olympics sticker and all the original paperwork. It also came with 8 label reels.

    Mac Portable 5V Line and Troubleshooting

    I was able to fix my portable by reflowing the solder on the 2 ic's listed above. How are you trying to get it to boot, and what have you done to your portable?

    How do I get rid of this code? I think it's stopping my portable from booting before I reset.

    I was able to fix it by being patient... Now it's fixed! I just had to wait longer. Another portable up and running! With a unknown amount of ram in the PDS card it came with!

    LCII Doesn't Boot from SCSIKnife

    Doesn't mean nothings wrong. My macintosh portable boots to the qusetion mark too (even with a BLUESCSI connected). But somethings wrong. I pressed the interrupt button and it gave me errors. Some of the pin on a chip in the board have come loose and arn't connected to the board. Are there any...
