Re: Capacitors (was Dead IIsi)

The cost cutting probably explains why I've seen them go bad on Classics more often than SEs. When the SE came out it was the second best in the Mac line (with the II above it and the Plus and 512Ke below it). The Classic was always the low end and it costs considerably less than the SE. And yes,

Re: Capacitors (was Dead IIsi)

I have not personally seen the capacitors in question but I wonder what the temperature rating of the originals was rated at. In tv and video equipment you can encounter similar problems (usually where some degree of heat is involved). When sourcing replacements try get "higher" temperature rated

Re: Dead IIsi

If the power supply is known to be good chances are you've got a busted logic board. I wouldn't go so far to scrap your IIsi but if you can find another logic board and it works fine you've isolated the culprit. Also check the connection of the power supply. I once thought an LC was dead but my pr

Dead IIsi

Well, I've tried everything I can think of to resurrect my little IIsi. All peripherals attached; none. No hard disk. No floppy. Fresh battery. Nothing makes any difference. It won't power on, from a known-good lead. Can anyone suggestion any ideas, or is it a one-way trip to the trashcan for th

Prolly a bad power supply. You can buy a whole new IIsi for about $15 US these days. jag At 3:00 PM -0400 10/6/01, Vintage Macs wrote: >Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Date: Sat, 06 Oct 2001 12:46:31 +0200 >From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Alexander Klock) >Subject: IIsi dead > >Hi everyone, > >after
