Hey, who wants to buy a mint condition SAFC II with only 1 scratch, 200 dollars shipped

Re: SAFC question

You can fix this! At least I hope you can, give it a shot.

Re: SAFC question

You really think that resoldering the pins will fix it? It seems to me like the board itself is fried.

Re: SAFC question

time, patience, will to live...
I'll give it a shot though.
the unit was fried before I started messing with it. Probably file a claim with paypal to get the $$ back.
