Hello,

I recently obtained 2 of these boards from Computer Reset. Both are revision 2.1. One works, one does not.

I am using a known good CPU, RAM and BIOS chip. I have all of the jumper settings mirrored between the two boards.

This board has seen better days.. there was some drop damage or some such to the corners and the keyboard connector joints needed reflow.

There was some corrosion next to the SIS 85C407 chip on the board. I believe I have repaired this and the pins on the chip now seem to have a proper connection to traces.

I'm not sure how far I am willing to go to repair this board, but I know it's a popular, sought after board and it would be a shame to see it die.

If anyone has any advice or possible next steps, I'm open to it.
