Actually, the Lisa appears to be just fine, other than the ghost Widget. I am guessing that something failed in the past and the power supply was repaired or replaced. I wouldn't expect that someone doing that job would go through the trouble of taking the entire machine apart to clean up the mess.-Chris----- Original Message ----- From: "Dr. Helmut Post" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>To: "LisaList" <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, November 02, 2005 4:19 AM Subject: Re: Taking apart Lisa - cleaningHi, I have replaced all old electrolytic caps and the power surge caps in myLisa- no more problems- and the Voltages are more stable than ever before.I have even exchanged all electrolytic caps in the video circuit- the picture is now much better- the slight jitter is gone.I'd recommend everyone to exchange all electrolytic caps inside the PSU and the Video circuit- it makes a big difference and protects the Lisa for thefuture.----- Original Message ----- From: "Chris Riedl" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>To: "LisaList" <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, November 02, 2005 9:37 AM Subject: Re: Taking apart Lisa - cleaningWell, that was certainly an interesting escapade. Apparently a power supply cap blew up sometime in the past, and there was crusted electrolyteall over the one side. Some cleaning of the chassis and case later, Ihavegot the Lisa booting up. However, it just appears as if the Widget is notpresent to the system, as it only shows the floppy for startup. TheWidgetspins up and sounds normal, but I guess it isn't being seen by thehardware.I'd recommend to turn the voice coil actuator manually during the spin-up,Any suggestions or things to try to pinpoint this further?self test procedure of the Widget.
