The reason is that in the motherboard there are little capacitators that pop and spread a conductive liquid over the board. That liquid creates short circuits and makes the computer to don't work. Washing the mobo (usually in the diswasher at a cold program) cleans that goo and enables it to work again. > i ask, because i have a CCII with a similar problem. rather than the > checkerboard, this one gets as far as a moveable mouse pointer on a blue > desktop. it stops short of the litte picture of a diskette with the > flashing question mark. Seems like your CCII has a damaged (or clean) hard disk. Using a boot diskette (it should boot without problem with it), check that the disk is accesible and that it has a system folder. To do that, the boot disk must contain (appart from the system folder) Disk First Aid and Apple HD SC Setup.
