I tried that already unfortunately. If I remember right it works but there are too many bad sectors. A low level format completes but every time I run it again it finds new sectors. Eventually it became unusable.
Although replacing capacitors just because of it in old gear may seem unnecessary but to be real they pretty much always leak electrolyte at this age. I see it everywhere in my old gear from 80s and 90s now. I am working on a Victor 286 I have and I had the power supply apart and it looked fine first but after lifting the caps the reality was that every single capacitor on the board was leaking and some had even corroded the tracks clean off. Not re-capping stuff this old before they get damage from it is just a lazy decision if it is stuff you care about for the future. I don´t enjoy re-capping everything because it is a pain to do. but My 486 was completely dead from leaky caps and a lot of damage was made from it but I revived it again, My Pentium 133 had leaky caps too but not that far gone to destroy the motherboard. the Victor is OMG amount of leakage. and I had TONS of other stuff dying because of it too. caps gets old and they are old now. expect them to leak by now and if not you are lucky they don´t do it yet. Real Rubycon is probably the most reliable caps you can have
It never hurts to replace them for sure - it really depends on the use you have for it. Maybe Peter will replace them all. My own SE is not recapped. Some caps from some era are much more prone to leaking
@@Tony359_2 I just a moment booted up my Victor here. It’s alive. I had to re-cap the whole computer. Even the MFM hard drive had all caps but two leaking. Happy to see my repair was a success after all that work. I am actually working on a Toshiba Lapline which had the Varta death too and it was almost as bad as your motherboard in corrosion. I never thought it was going to be possible to revive it. But this one already lives again but I am not completely done with it. There is a chance I have to service some caps on that one too but I have not yet seen any obvious leaks on that one. Only the stupid battery leak. I wish quality was better on all these crapacitors 😅

Hahaha :) Why have I never seen that short!!!??? 😂😂 Merry Christmas Tony and everyone watching!
Eheh it’s a silly short 😂
Merry Christmas to you too!
My Miniscribe made the same noises. I put some oil in the stepper motor, and it worked again. Adrian Black has a video about it also.

A dead Miniscribe? Never! 😅
A nice video for relaxing after a busy Christmas Day.
Ahah yes, the bricks, literally!
Real shame about the battery b0mb but I'm glad the rest is working well enough. Merry Christmas by the way! 🎄

The Macintosh SE FD/HD models were fitted with 1.44Mb floppy drives. The original Mac SE was, indeed, 800K only.
I remembered right, thanks! Can I have an SE working with a 1.44MB? Swapping the SWIM? The ROM?
Happy Holidays and thanks for a video gift! Curious what connector you found to mate with the power supply output connector? Best wishes!
standard ATX 🙂
It's just part of it but it's keyed and there is no way to plug it wrong! Happy Holidays!
The comment below is here: Amazing job!
ahah thank you!
double post error
This tube is very very warmed up. Shit!!
It is unfortunately. But it's working :)
A not working miniscribe HDD. Surprise surprise - NOT.
ahaha exactly!
