Strangely we've got three DDR Extreme cabs within 20 minutes of each other here in Hobart.

Reply to Start of a Retro Computer Room.
This one is a really nice 386 DX40 motherboard which was completely dead with the reset line stuck. I suspected this was because the last pin (bottom) on the AT PSU labeled "Power Good" needs to be connected which in this case the track was corroded.
Close up on how bad...Today, 05:33 PM -
