Post your ruined hardware finds here (unless there's already a thread I couldn't find). I just saw these at the local recycling. Doesn't seem to be anything to rare, but it's a really weird thing to paint those boards like that. Who would even want something like this?

You can maybe repair them in a acetone or nitro bath 😉

I am aroused about any X86 motherboard that has full functional ISA slot. I think i have problem. Not really into that original (Turbo) XT,286,386 and CGA/EGA stuff. So just a DOS nut.
PS. If I upload RAR, it is a 16-bit DOS RAR Version 2.50.

ROTFLMAO. Acetone will disolve or soften most plastics and protective coatings. That is why you buy and store it in a metal container.

If the truth hurts, tough shit.

Is this too much voodoo?
