Hi everyone,
I am currently trying to save a Macintosh Classic logic board. Currently, the computer only display a full grey with no mouse pointor (see linked picture) and don't produce the startup song.
This is a macintosh classic sold "for parts" that I am trying to ressurect. When I received it, I was suprised to discover that the capacitors, the y1 oscillator and the two reset switch was missing. I now have reccaped the logic board with tantalum capacitor and the y1 oscillator with a brand new 32,768 kHz one. The two reset switch are still missing but I don't think it could be a problem for testing since they are normally open, if I'm not mistaken. I have looked for cut tracks but for the monent, I did not seen any. I have also tried to swap the rom ic with one issued from a dead logic board due to a leaked battery but the result is still the same.
Can you confirm me that the problem could not come from the analog board and the value of the y1 oscillator just to be sure (It appears to be used by the rtc, so it should be a 32,768 kHz).
Do you have any idea or advice ?
Thank you for your help.
