Reapir MB Mike Terrell

Unless you are pretty sure the caps are bad ie bludging, leaking probably not worth the effort to fix Legacy motherboards are still available at fairly decent prices

I have bought cap kits from this place but they do offer repair services as well.

I think Mike is my only shot here. If he's not well enough to do it, I'm in the ISA computer build market.

Getting my control software running on another computer is a HUGE job.

Anybody heard from him in a while? I haven't been on RCM but a few times sense last fall.

Or you could learn to solder.

Don Foreman tried. He said i was the first he couldn't teach.

Mike poked his nose in here last March or so. Health woes and such had been keeping him occupied...

Don't know if this will work, but some possible info/links:

"Michael A. Terrell"

Skype: michael.a.terrell

What's Facebook?

Oh ya, that place where you post all your life's info and then stay busy trying to keep everyone in the world from seeing it ;-)

Karl any decent electronics shop can do an easy job like replacing caps ask around. The ham radio guys will know someone or maybe one of them would help you out. Checked and there are ISA motherboards on ebay

I've arrived on facebook a few times through search engines, but I don't know how to use it.

Karl, I can't even get into my shop right now. I do have a few good motherboards with ISA slots. You are welcome to a couple for the cost of shipping.

What brand and model of board?

Sorry to hear you can't get around.

To answer your other question

I guess I could buy a new one for only $1700

Just any old ISA MB won't do. Need P4 speed, both PCI and ISA slots. Not sure on the graphics spec but would need to support a grahics card most likely.

Karl

I think I'll just send the boards here.

I've been lightly in contact with him on Facebook this week, so he's still kickin'.

Not 24 hours a day. :)

I am still having a lot of trouble sleeping but at least I've stopped waking up, screaming in pain. I was also having muscle spasms so bad that they left me hanging onto the edge of the bed to keep from hitting the floor. I had to file a complaint against my VA doctor with Richard Nugent, to get into Wound Care. I also had a yelling match with my primary care physician about handicap parking. She would give me a six month, temporary, but not the permanent four year permit. I lost it, when the moron told me, "You're only 62, you might get better some day."

I was finally released from Wound Care last month, but I still need to do some healing.

Not on 12 to 16 layer motherboards.

I started using it to stay in touch with people who gave up on newsgroups. I also tracked down several people I served with, in the US Army.
