Re: MAC IICX -problems

I have a IIcx with the same problem. I believe that the traces/solders at
teh back of the board are failing.

Try lifting the power supply wiggling the power switch, and putting back
the PS. Works like a charm for our old beast.

Once its' up, take a flat heard screw driver and lock it on until it dies
for good.

Of course, I run our BBS on protected power on ours, so this usually isn't
a problem for us, unless I need to make a change.
