Set about doing a Takky hack to my CC tonight as I just wasn't getting the usage out of it as a Mystic that I'd wanted. So far, it seems to be almost there. Hit the power switch, I get the startup chime from the speaker on the analog board, it boots up, but I get no video on the screen. The tube seems to be totally dead to the world, no static or anything else. I do get "squinchy" noises from the analog board so something high voltage is working. Naturally, since I've hacked up my only analog wiring connector, I can't try reconnecting the Mystic. Unless someone out there has a spare wiring harness they want to get rid of...
Anyway, I have a couple things I'm worried about. First, is there supposed to be anything connected to BD12 on the logic board? Also, I found a broken bit of wiring on the tube the last time I picked it up that looked like a ground connector. However, I had several other bits of electronics in the same box so I have no idea whether it came from the CC tube or not. So, is there supposed to be a single, fairly short wire going somewhere? There appears to be a small tab it might connect to on the metal box on the back, but I'm not seeing anywhere else for it to connect. Any other ideas? :) Not quite sure if this is the best forum, but I know there are a good many CC owners here. I'm so close, yet so far away :) Thanks, Scott Holder -- Compact Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/>.
