That’s fixable? You must be far better at hardware work than I am.

It is not bad, I am going to start by desoldering the socket and throw a new one in because it could be as simple as the CPU having zero contact points. The thing won't even show a color error code so that is a dead giveaway to ROM or CPU or perhaps both since they are closely located around the battery. This thing also has a SCSI card with two megs of ram on it and the ram is dead so it could be a larger issue like power supply failing and the +5v rail goes high. I am preying it isn't but it is a possibility and one I have seen before.

Well best of luck my friend.

Thanks, hopefully I roll a 20 so my spell of healing has a 100 percent chance.
