I remember iCue from the previous Corsair based PC. Yeah, that can fuck off as well. Will it initialise at boot? Will it remember to turn the pump on? Who knows!

Anything I get in the future will be HW stand-alone or supported by OpenRGB.

I run a Windows 11 paravirtualised VM for that so I can set lighting etc on my keyboard as I wasn't aware at the time it was required to do anything with it.
Otherwise, the modern Windows desktop can fuck off into the sea for my needs.

That's a lovely amount of copper there. You can probably accurately date it based on how the world economy was doing at the time.

I radically improved arcadeRTFM.com this week. It's now a fully indexed archive of arcade repair/operator manuals plus schematics. It has details for 7,800+ arcade machines and 2,400+ manuals. You can search by game, manufacturer, year or even chip! Share it wherever you think it might be useful.

Quite enjoying the driving through the woodland like someone following an out of date TomTom that's lost its GPS signal. More of that in games!

Works for me. You do need to run your iron hot enough to let it mix, then it is plain sailing for desoldering.

The emotions conveyed in Wile E.'s face along with the delay before the dust cloud emerges from his impact is comedic genius.

Clock cap on the 1.6 *can* fail but it's less of a common occurrence as on the lower revisions where it will be a certainty.

Get some high bismuth solder from AliExpress. Makes this stuff a breeze. No need to heat the ground plane to thermal nuclear temps or risk collapsing vias.

They swap product lines to a less heat tolerant over number of running hours Nichicon after the initial revision. You also have the clock cap (super capacitor) issue spilling out onto the board on all but the very last revisions.
Not a console that takes age in its stride sadly.
