[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1096785, member: 46727"] To be honest, you may be better off purchasing a refurbished logic board rather than taking the chance of first trying to find the part, then, successfully removing it and replacing it without damage to the LB. I've been in the computer repair and electronics repair field for many years, and even after all the experience working with solder removal stations, I have personally ruined several boards in the process. To put it mildly, it's not easy. Take a look in the back (advertising section) of MacWorld Magazine, there's usually 4 or 5 authorized Mac parts resellers who stock refurbished logic boards. Prices seem fair compared to Apple. Good luck with the repair and keep us posted. Regards. [/QUOTE]
