Subject: Dead Mac IIfx
Hi folks,
After getting a nubus ethernet card and a radius 24bit accelerator I
thought
I'd dig out my olde IIfx......trouble is it's
refusing to power up even
with
different keyboards/known good PRAM batteries. It
worked when I got it a
couple of years ago; I even treated it to knew batteries, so anyone know
of
any instant fixes for dead machines?
I'm going to steal the PSU from my other Mac II and see if it makes a
difference....I know they're the same apart from the IIfx one has a
variable
speed fan.
Cheers,

This page has a chart which might be of interest. Doesn't pertain to
original post since a non-boot doesn't seem to involve pram/nvram or cudas.
Pretty good troubleshooting page though.
