Looking for motherboard repair (for my 1200).

[MrBang]

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....

Software Hut told me about a guy in the mid-west that does motherboard repairs, mods, etc.  Send them an email for his number.

for the record, it isn't me, my A3K died in a very similar fashion.

Not sure about the USA, but I have send off a A4000 MB to Amiga France with excellent service!  Got it back like 3 weeks after I mailed it out too!  Good prices too.  I am about to send off 2 more MBs out for some repairs.  Wish there was something local to Seattle for repairs, its a shame I have to mail them to France...

Hoya!

Yes, there are still some good Amiga experts in France.
It is not that bad a country after all! ;-)

Be funky

I burnt out a trace going from the expansion slot on my a1200 mobo and have limited experience with soldiering and stuff.  But i managed to bridge the burn with a normal soldering iron a piece of wire and some solider

@ MrBang :-)

Well, too bad :-( but as said by tjlazer and mad, JJ of www.amiga.fr does a very good job for all kind of Amiga repairs :-) He is especially good at salvaging PPC cards too :-)

You can send him your MB with confidence :-D

@mad :-)

You said it! France is one of the beautifullest place on earth :-) and not only for Amigans ;-)
