Has anybody ever tried repairing a dead motherboard?
More specifically, remove leaky capacitors and solder new ones on?
It's not that I'm too cheap to buy a board, it's just that I don't want to go through the hassle of redoing the hard drive because of replacing the mboard. And the board I have has been obsolete for a long time. And it is a deluxe board with lots of nice features. If I could find the same one, I'd buy it. (Gigabyte 8KNXP)
I'm considering trying this. Just wondering if you guys have had any experience at it?
