Hello
My A4000 clock stopped to keep time months ago when not powered.
I finally got myself to strip it to the bare bones from the RBM tower.
The battery has never leaked and was changed two years ago. I thought
the solder had got loose and so it was but a resolder a month ago did
not cure it. So now I took a 20x magnifier and had a look at the mobo.
There were some solder joints that were not so good and one track was
also quite corroded. So I cleaned everything, resoldered the bad joints
and secured the bad track with a jump wire (what a job, w/o magnifier it
had been almost impossible). Changed some noisy fans, also some Zorro
boards with my A500T, put Prometheus with Voodoo3 in, reassembled
everything and powered up. Wow, everything works and my clock keeps time
again :-))
