Re: Brainstorm Accelerator
The Brainstorm kit is a bit invasive, however, the instructions are very detailed. Mainly patience and the right tools are needed. You might want to practice removing and re-installing chips on a practice board.

No idea about the PSU but it becomes slightly warm if left connected overnight. I have no other similar Macs to swap parts with. I have a 6100, 2 LC475s, a (dead) Classic II, a 7300/166, a Beige G3 and an old Powerbook - possibly a 145, I forget. Nothing I can swap PSUs or logic boards in and out from, though, I don't think. Do you know anyone with a IIci or 7100? The IIsi power supply can be used to power one of those and vice versa. I wouldn't try it with any cards installed or hard drive load to speak of, but the power connectors are compatible. Also, the combo won't fit in the case so the test needs to be done out of the case on the bench. However, it's sounding like you probably have leaky capacitors on your IIsi board. The IIci is subject to this problem and the IIsi is nearly identical only with half the SIMM sockets and no NuBus slots. Ahhh. I've heard about that problem on compact Macs but not Mac IIs. Best I can do is whip out the motherboard and run it through the dishwasher, then, along with the one from my Classic II, which also died recently. The IIsi was meant to be the replacement for the C2.
