PCB Board repairs...any body out there ?
<< < (2/2)
RayB:
First and foremost you have to be sure your power supply is in good working order. Otherwise power spikes, too high voltage, etc could be damaging your board. A repair will only mean you pop it in and get it damaged again.

Do that first. Measure voltages. Do a power supply tune-up if possible.

Next, is cleaning all contacts, securing all cables and pushing in all socketed roms properly.

And now that ROM is likely toast.  Don't ever pop them in backward.
