Looking for motherboard repair (for my 1200).
« on: April 29, 2004, 02:10:41 AM »
Hold my hand mommy, I'm scared....

I just about broke down and cried.  My 1200.  My COMMODORE 1200.  One of the originals off the line.  My faithful companion for over a decade.  I smoked it today!  (Don't ask.  It was stupid.  Let's just say I have a bad history with Kingston memory.)

I have a little burned spot near where the power supply connects.  It actually looks like an easy fix.  (A little fresh soldier, maybe a wire to jump the connection.)

I'm just too chicken to @#&% with it.  It looks like anybody good with a soldiering iron could whip it out in about fifteen minutes.  (Even a PC tech.)

So.  Anybody have a recommendation as to who could do the work?  Somebody Amiga proficient would be preferred (since they might already have a power supply handy to test with, etcetera).  U.S. repair would be nice, too (just to make payment and shipping easier).  I'm stripped down to a bare motherboard right now, but I could remount any components as needed.

I could detail exactly where the burn is, if somebody thinks they could walk me through it.  (Ugh.)

So?  Here we go....
