Yesterday I wanted to overhaul an iBook G4 an noticed my supplies did run out so I created a new batch today ...

C16101 in my Sun SPARCstation 10 wanted to tell me something using smoke signs today ... unfortunately I couldn't read them - but will replace it with a new cap - also looking carefully around that camp fire region ... 🔥

🚀 Just wrapped up a recap on the PowerMac 7300/166! 🎉 This vintage beauty has its unique challenges, especially when it comes to replacing those tricky capacitors which are located at the bottom of the board, too.

Check out our detailed overview and parts list for everything you need to know. Let's keep these classics running! 💻✨

@NanoRaptor Nice - I like the brand name ... AppleTek :)

I decided to test a portion of my vintage computers today, as it's a wise practice to do so on a regular basis . Unfortunately, while conducting the tests, I came across a problem with one of the power supply units meant for the Performa 475 / LC III; it was no longer functioning as it should. This incident serves as a reminder of the significance of consistent maintenance in ensuring that all components operate efficiently.

Izumi ... any chance you can help?

Just finished reviving a Siemens Nixdorf RM200-C40 ... sporting a MIPS R5000 processor.

Bonjour Miod,
I am referring to your homepage entry about the HP 425e - nice work btw.
Currently trying to revive a 425e with a blown capacitor (at least). Do you maybe have a hi-res image of the board (where the capacitance is readable)? Or can provide me with the value of the tantalum next to the "L" on the board's MODEL marking on the solder mask?
Thanks!
