The PSU takes a bit longer than the other boards.

If the pad lifts off the PCB, it will still be connected to the trace that leads to the rest of the circuit, literally hanging by a thread. Which can still be repaired by splicing into that trace. I push the old caps lightly down and twist them back and forth with needle nose pliers, until the...

The only thing the Dead Mac Scrolls says about the SE and checkerboard, which apparently only affects the FDHD model: Maybe the ROM sockets need a cleaning?

It would've taken me forever to find and understand all the different file formats available, thanks for the excellent info, Mark_W!

Would never have figured that out, much thanks! The image I had built from savagetaylor.com and Ron's Computer Videos tutorial, had both versions, Disk Copy v4.2 and 6.3.2 - threw 4.2 in the trash and 6.3.2 instantly installed the After Dark 2.0 image: B&W flying toast ensued. Will have...

Got the games copied over and working, I think I have a handle on the .SIT files now. Really enjoying this! But for the Apps, I'm having a bit of difficulty with .BIN, .HQX, and image files. I was able to get After Dark 3.0 copied over in .SIT form to the SE/30's, and it's working, but Flying...

This is the step I was missing, and is exactly what I was trying to do to be able to move the entire Games folder over to Bailisk II, thanks so much for this! I dragged the the entire Games folder from Windows 'This PC' to Bailisk, then deleted the Games folder in Basilisk - even emptied the...

Thanks! I was trying to drop a folder containing many games and apps in .sit form, all at once. Sounds like I need to go one at a time. Basilisk II does recognize that I'm dragging a file in to the emu, but then tries to make a disk out of it. I'll try this all later tonight when I return...

I have no other Mac's, except (2) SE's that were given to me, and (2) SE/30's that I bought and repaired. Was a Commodore and Windows kid from long ago, so Mac is new to me. I was able to build the OS's with BlueSCSI - 7.5.5 for the SE/30's, and 7.0.1 for the SE's - thanks to this excellent...

Very nice Apple I replica, really like the wood cases that were necessary from that era too! Thanks for sharing your collection with us.

Moonlighting 1985-1989: looks like another Mac SE M5011.

The only new flyback I have seen for the SE - SE/30 is expensive, I have no personal experience with these, have only seen others say they do work: https://www.ebay.com/itm/121655780759 Ebay has some decent looking Analog Boards that include the flyback but all of them are about 40 years old at...

If I had to guess what's making the video do that, UG7 stands out as having been replaced. I know the PAL dumps are available, might be worth a try to recreate UG7 to see if that helps. https://github.com/TheRealBolle/SE30/tree/main/PALs

Nice work finding the bridge! EDIT: I had thought the bodge wire at UF8 was incorrect, but looking close I can see Pin 6 is correctly attached to Pin 13. That is strange that the simasima pattern is moving. Have you already toned out all of the Data lines from UE10 and the CPU to the ROM slot?

Could it be possible that the short is not actually at the CPU, but somewhere else that D28, 29 and 30 meet? The Data Pin Matrix lists a few places where those Data lines are closely located to each other on the legs of chips, might be worth checking in these locations for a bridge, or errant...

Glad to hear you're enjoying the process, I was actually a bit sad when mine was finally fixed, was the end of the challenge, made me want to fix another. Sounds like a good idea to send the worst SE/30 board out to be Reloaded and do the work yourself on the board shown above, I think that...

In the first season, first episode of Seinfeld, there was no Mac, but in episode 2 of season 1, here is the first scene of one ever shown, it's the SE M5011:

Since this is the Compact Macs forum, only Compact Macs qualify for this thread. Macintosh Plus: Thanks to @Ron's Computer Videos for this one.

That board looks repairable - to me, I would remove the battery holder though and look under there, if there was a leak and damage. The secret to getting rid of bridged pins, imo, is good flux, it makes the solder cling to the legs/pads and not bridge as badly. If you're enjoying the process...

This episode has been out for about a year, I'm a bit late on this, but was watching Black Mirror on Netflix Season 7 Episode 6, the last episode of the season, called: USS Callister Into Infinity - and a Macintosh Classic was featured prominently. Was surprised to see it, wondered if anyone...
