I have a 3 year old Mac Plus which has been having a wavering line problem on
the screen for a little over a year now. It has been explained as a bad solder
joint. However in the past week another problem has arisen. Every now and
again, a loud popping sound is heard from the left side of the Mac (the analog
board) and at the same time a BRIGHT white line flashes at a random spot on
the screen. This line does not just appear in the Mac video threshhold but
spans the entire CRT, including the black area that is always black. Does
anyone have an idea what this may be? Please respond E-Mail. I will post it to
the net upon request.
