The mouse on my Starmax just died. I found several on ebay with $2 starting price, but one bid put me out -- I'd set a $5 max. Local recycled computer shop had used ones at $20. That was enough to push me ahead.
Simple continuity check showed the cable was bad. Isolated to the obvious spot -- the sinuous "strain relief" where the cable passes through the case. Cut that part out, restored the connections, and all is well. Note: the screw holding the case together was under the foil label. My cable was color coded -- red, yellow, white, and shield. If yours isn't, take care to get the splices right. (BTW: I did splice, not rewire to the connector, because I couldn't figure how to undo and redo the connector-cable connections.) -- -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
