| Who can repair motherboards for my Performa 460 - Recap & pad repair | |
| Posted by: Mikes Future Retro on 2025-09-15 08:06:45 So .. while I can do soldering and repair - Ive damaged a few pads on the motherboard and that's beyond my level of skills to correct. I need a motherboard re-capped and 2 pads repaired to complete the re-capping process. I also need a LC style power supplyly re-capped. Preferably, I would prefer to work with some one who works on classic macintoshes (Pre G3 PowerPC era) Please respond with factual leads .. Im more concerned with reliability of repairs overall. Thanks in advance, Mike. | |

| Posted by: crazyben on 2025-09-15 21:30:45 Those two don’t seem too bad to repair. If you were nearby, I’d be happy to help. I’ve done these repairs a few times before. However, as others have suggested, you can’t go wrong with Amiga. | |
