- Where do you do any soldering in the A500 installation of
- the MegaCHIP 2000 board? I just looked through the manual
- and nowhere in the A500 instructions does it mention
- soldering anything.
-
- You only have to cut some traces with an Xacto knife and
- attach a clip to a chip on the motherboard.
-
- The only difference in what traces you cut depend on what
- revision motherbaord is in the A500 and how much existing
- CHIP RAM there is at the time of installation.
