There was a lot of track cutting underneath the motherboard I think I had to cut to tracks the CPU clock pin, then bridged to cuts over bypassing the CPU, and then just running the CPU clock to the board. I scraped the PCB varnish off and soldered wires directly to the tracks I think . It was rather a mess..IngoQ wrote: ↑Tue Oct 31, 2017 3:38 pm I'm not that cofortable with bending up CPU pins. I am afraid, they might break. In the above picture, it looks like you found another way of isolating the CPU clock... did you cut a trace somewhere? I followed the CPU clock until it disappeared under U203, but did not find any nice solder points...
Bending the pins up is a little bit iffy, but you only need to lift it up enough to get stuff the circuit board get a wire on the pad underneath. Bending them up vertically once is normally okay, as long as you do not bend it a second time.
