Trying to fix a donor board is the ultimate savageness

@richardhead8264 2 года назад

_I enjoy the No-Fix videos because it shows the struggle of chasing an unknown issue, while demonstrating great micro-soldering techniques._ 👍

@tsbeech 2 года назад

Thank you for what you teach us. Your time is worth alot to us.

@nathanmonahan6157 2 года назад

Agreed. I love the hot tweezer and snip of desolder braid trick that he showed. I don't have a very steady hand and often get bridges, with that little kernel of knowledge i save myself a lot of headaches.

Maybe someone bought a donor listed as "not working" and sent it to you in hope you could fix it. Next time fix your donor board. It would be easier 😂😂

@mrBDeye 2 года назад

I was thinking the same. The donor board had more parts and more of a chance to be fixed than the customer's board.

Even from my standpoint, he switches tools and parts so quick, its hard for the average viewer to tag along. The videos are edited, so some things are edited out for a clearer understanding of the fundamental repair. Alex is very capable with his tools.

@L3ttuc3 2 года назад

Has to be a donor bought off eBay or something in the hopes it could be salvaged. The balls to even attempt that lol. Unless they got it for a few dollars it doesn't even almost seem worth the risk. I've just started the video but I can't imagine that thing will live again. This really will be a miracle repair and a testament to skill if you get this thing going.

If you look closely, isnt there still a missing Filter at 13:01 ? You replaced the 2 on the top, but you missed the Filter a little lower to the left. Maybe IT is Not waking up for that reason. The component is present on the donor Board at 0:27

Looks like this board is not for repair but surely looks like a donor board as so many components are missing from it. Looks like a deliberate repair attempt has been carried out on it else why would not one two or three but so many components missing. God help such people.

I had a cut resistor on the front board that joysticks go into on a Dreamcast with a unit I bought not working on ebay. Once I replaced the part powered it up the battery for RTC shot fire up around it ... Some of the masking on the back of the board burned off. There was plenty of damage to the board from someone else who tried to modify the battery before I got in there. I guess I got a donor machine now. But I bought it for slightly more than a replacement GD-rom drive goes for so no real big problem.
