- I was soldering away in my Amiga last night, attempting to install a
- jumper, and suddenly the solder on the motherboard turned black. Did
- it oxidize or burn or what? The jumper was copper wire, the solder
- was lead. What can I do to remove it (other than drilling); it won't
- melt.
- Why did this happen? Is Cu + Pb a bad combination or something?
- Please e-mail me, as I can't check the net every day, and my computer
- won't boot. Everything else inside the Amiga is exactly as when I
- started, except for the black solder, so that must be the problem.
