I second the mention of the RaSCSI. The ethernet over SCSI functionality works wonders! I made a video about it here: Please note, that my video was made while things were still a bit in development and experimental. A lot has changed to improve the ease of enabling this, so check the latest...

This is awesome... (y) Thank you Marcio! This is very much appreciated and very cool to see archived. I love seeing this stuff get preserved by the original creators.

Yes, as others have mentioned our priority was to launch and get things started. It was impossible to solidify the structure and rules of these processes without having some of our vacant roles filled. Now that the board is populated there are a bunch of things that we're currently discussing...

I'd start by getting some IPA (99% isopropyl alcohol) and a toothbrush and do some gentle scrubbing around the capacitors. It won't prevent them from leaking, but it will clear off some of the nasty stuff that is on there now and buy you some time.

Nice! I know nothing about this card, but it is beautiful. :love:

Thanks Kai! I did touch up the pads (or even remove the chip) U12, along with whatever is to the left (in the photo) of C27, that's why there is some solder mask there. I'll try to map things out with the multimeter. I've done so much work on this board over there years it's hard to remember...

Hmm, it does seem "okay" to me on the surface, but who knows. This thing has also been through the ultrasonic cleaner at least twice. But anything is worth trying! By chance to you have a rough idea of what chips may be a suitable replacement? Maybe some dedicated multimeter probing in this...

Yes, I've tried swapping PSUs, CPUs, and RAM, etc. The CPU and PSU are confirmed working in my Quadra 800. So that leaves me to believe the logic board is the culprit. :confused:

Excellent! So happy to see it alive again. 🎉

Excellent! Thank you so much for documenting this! (y) I'll have to do it with my Portrait display one day. Do you know the manufacture date or revision number of your display? Apparently there are two revisions, so I wonder if there are differences between them. So glad you got yours working...

Best of luck with the Quadra! Yours is in beautiful shape and it has the caddy CD-ROM bezel. ❤️ Sadly it sounds like you have the same issue mine is having, power LED turns on, PSU fan spins, and nothing else. Does the CPU get hot? Mine does pretty quickly - but the rest of the board seems...

Well, if we're all sharing... 🤓 Solder: Kester Rosin Core 63/37 (link) Flux: Amtech 4300/lF or 4300-TF (link) Wick: Superwick #453-NS No Clean (any length, link)

Wow, an exciting project! I realized in my collection I have an LC II and LC III, but not an LC (which I swore I had at one point). Getting one of these logic boards would certainly help scratch that itch. Well done! 👏

Wow, a thrilling saga! I can't wait for the epic conclusion. :love: I say it'll turn on! Wow, those look great! I wanted to do the same to the metal support for my SE/30 before installing it in a MacEffects case, but I couldn't find a place (yet) local that would do parts this small.

Rest assured they don’t all work and plenty of them may barely constitute an entire system. 😅

That is very similar to the one I have, it worked fine when it did!

No matter how I pronounce it, I know it’ll be wrong! 🤣 I pronounce it “lie dough”, but… 🤷‍♂️

Thanks Bruce! I think I'll go ahead and order that one, I found a decent deal on eBay. I'll let everyone know how it turns out. :)

Hello everyone! I think it's finally time to replace my Yihua hot air gun (pictured below). I've stopped using the soldering iron when I got a new one, but I've been relying on this for my repairs. Sadly, it seems to be slowly losing it's juice. The air doesn't seem to be coming out as hot or...

FYI I think you replied to the wrong thread ;-)
