    I'm looking forward to part two. I haven't done any soldering in such a long time outside one ugly job of jimmyrigging a blade server to a power supply.

    If you look at 11:25 you have missed some corrosion around UB1 and UB2, the yellow capacitor and possibly the surface mount electrolytic. It doesn't look bad enough to cause an issue but it is definitely there and needs addressing before it gets worse. Shame about that IIfx board though 😞

      Yes, very sad about the IIfx board :(
      In Part II I will fully fix the II board, including the parts you noted (nice catches!)

    its unfortunate that these capacitors and batteries were made to not last, and ruin the chances of preserving old technology

      Not all failures are as bad as shown in this video - some of these machines can be restored and returned to operational condition!

    Interesting video. What video editing software do you use on your Mac?

      I've just been using iMovie - it's not full of features but it has all the basics, and it does the job!
