Overhauling a Duo Dock II PSU ...

#Apple #Macintosh #68k #Retrocomputing #MARCHintosh #MARCHintosh2023

So, finally ... after the first Duo Dock II arrived as a 200-piece puzzle, I was able to get hold of another one and successfully play "2 => 1".

The 2nd one was externally and mechanically very good, but the power supply, logic board and floppy were in the butt ... the corresponding puzzle pieces, however, were ok.

Anyone has a PowerBook 280c for adoption? Please inquire :)

Hi Retrocommunity ... question, did anyone ever hear/see the phonomenon in the attached video? And has some ideas?
Board did get recapped, washed ... "good known" RAM got used. Traces look all fine.

But on startup only a chopped of chime ... every 50 tries or so a full chime but no full boot.

Somehow my suspicion in towards the PSU - even if it deliveres stable -12V.

To boldly go where nobody has gone before ...
.. repairing a CD300 Plus :).

Had a non-working CD300 Plus which I decided to crack open today. No bis obstacles on disassembly - did of course clean the lens and disassembled up to the rails. De-greased/oiled them, re-greased with white lithium grease.
Drive working again. Did contemplate a moment replacing the caps but decided on a later date ...

Folks,
got one ... uhh ... 2 issues.

I have 2 Performa 6400/200 logic boards - both recapped.

Number 1: is working, except for the "internal" sound, front headphone is fine.

Number 2: is working, including internal sound, but does not generate video output.

The chassis cannot be the issue as the combination of both is working well.

Does anyone have a hint where to look for one or the other problem?

Thanks!

March is quickly approaching, folks :). Do you already have your idea(s) ready?
I am still not decided ... installation and set-up of an old Airport Mushroom? Installation of A/UX on WGS95? A special recap project?

I seldom do accept that something cannot be repaired - but currently working on a Mac SE (2x 800k) which experienced _severe_ liquid damage ...
The inner metal frame did look worse than this cleaned-up floppy holder ... both floppies dead ... Mainboard still unsure. recapped - used known-good RAM - not working. Maybe I have to look for a SE replacement board.
Luckily I was able to source 2 piece of 800k Floppy which only had the usual, damaged cog ...
