well with this bad weather I decided to look at the impact CPU cards This one was a bit blue around it so decided to strip all the components off in the affected area it does look a bit bad!!! scraped the rot off with a fiber pencil. surprisingly there was only about 6 tracks broken, but a good few eaten at the edges of the traces! so patched up every trace that was remotely eaten! Kynar wire was soldered over the traces, this took several hours to complete! (with a rest from it in the middle as you have to take a rest!!) it now looks like this! its now having the solder resist applied!

here is my thread on impact if it is of any interest https://www.fruitemu.co.uk/ib/index.php?/topic/20230-jpm-impact-repairs/

Hi kelvin,welcome,sounds like you dont mind getting stuck in.Can be fun and can be fecking frustrating.Enjoy

Are you having a go at this mate? I have a WIP 90% done if it would help. I'd be more than happy to send it over. If not could you do me a hi-res scan of the flyer please, and I'll give it a go? Thanks

Processor Card Kelvin? Another good machine that one. Jpm Impacts are on of my favs.

Welcome

hello and welcome

they both do damage! one does the board in, and the other flywired works the rot up the cables until it reaches the board!
