    I just finished a transplant of the motherboard in my CF-30 Mk3.
    Things went well, but I missed a few connections the first time through -- and one of them the first three or four times through. :eek: It was hiding under another one and kept my hard drive from working.

    Now all devices in this computer (yes, I'm using it to post this) work!

    Great job Bob! A sense of accomplishment isn't it?

    You'll be doing them blindfolded in a month or two...

    Yes, it does indeed engender a sense of accomplishment. I feel I have learned something, and it would have been much harder without all of the help from the folks here.
    I probably saved a few bucks in the process too. :)
