Aren’t most of the capacitors on the IIfx logicboard Tantalums rather than
electrolytics?

The first thing to do is have the capacitors replaced. Thete's no point to
other troubleshooting until that is taken care of.

Hi all,
Been probably 15 years since I posted here.
After moving last summer, I set up my long dormant/closeted IIfx that had been
out of circulation for at least 10 years. To my surprise, it booted right up
into OS 8.1 and my second hard drive with A/UX booted right up as well.
It was a

I have never had an issue with IIfx terminators.
Even unterminated buses have, and do work for me.
Just my luck, I guess.
Why don't we solve this problem
I haven't used a IIfx, but I do know that many problems arise when the
SCSI terminator is bad. If that's the problem, you have to locate a
proper terminator because an industry standard SCSI terminator won't
do the job in a IIfx. A lot of people end up retiring their IIfx's as
museum pieces
I haven't used a IIfx, but I do know that many problems arise when the

Most of the models I have (about 40) don't like a terminator.
There is a IIvx, a IIcx and a IIsi here -
the IIfx should not be really different in its behaviour, I think.
Worst case scenario is a
Actually the IIfx has a totally different SCSI thing going then any
other mac II. You have to use special terminator made of pure
unobtainium . Luckily I have one.
Everything seems happy now that the clock is running again.

The later production IIfx don't need the special black external

A standard terminator applies a pair of 220 ohm pull-ups, and

I got a IIfx the other day that was running the Japanese version of 7.1.
It needed its batteries replaced but, after I replaced them it seemed
happy enough. Except I don't read Japanese. 64mb ram, dual floppies,
230mb Apple labeled hd, and a radius 24 bit card.
I decided to wipe and reinstall
