Couple weeks ago a project was completed for KnucklesX2

He or someone else had cause damaged to his system.

Had to replace the Sata connector on the motherboard.

Then do a bundle of surface mount recovery work on the Logic board of his dvd drive.  Expose fresh trace, install new smd resistors and replace the Voltage Reg.  Then, the drive key was recovered.

A somewhat, fresh drive was spoofed over to work with his Jasper console.

More repair work complete for Scene Members

mindcycle  ... needed a Gpu reball.  Also had to replace 4 capacitors on his board.  And for fun, I streamlined his jtag wiring - making it less bulky


dcombs44  ....  another Gpu reball.  Also put in a 2nd gen Heat sink and a Talismoon fan


hopefully they will post their comments soon

Got my launch jtag 360 back yesterday and its working great. I'd guess it's now one of the oldest 360's still running at this point, haha. Will did a great job reballing the GPU and also cleaned up the jtag wiring. He sent updates and pictures of his progress throughout. Great guy to work with, highly recommend.

What are your prices for repairing a falcon jtag with e74? Its kinda weird. At first it was showing 3 red rings, but now it shows lower right ring and shows e74. I have a rework station, but I don't have a preheater and have never reflown a console yet, and don't want to jack this one up. Also, I'd much rather have it reballed with leaded balls to prevent further issues with it. Thanks.

Repair done for tdude51

Not a Gpu reball this time

tdude51 was working on his dvd drive.  He had an unfortunate static discharge.  Sort of killed his BenQ.

He sent it to me.  I had to replace 3 smd components.  This brought it back to life.

In addition got his drive key for him.

Big thanks to Will for bringing my BenQ back to life! Great communication and very fast turnaround time. Will made sure to keep me up to date on the status of my repair and did some extra work to improve the drive. I would highly recommend his service to anyone.

Will did a great job! Brought 2 Jtags back from the dead. Kept in constant contact, keeping me updated every step of the way. Went above and beyond and cleaned up a bunch of sloppiness from previous "fixes". Great guy and willing to work with you. I'd definitely go back if I need any more repairs. Just hope I don't need to. LOL

Just got my 360 back from wilgo.

Great guy to deal with. Keeps you updated during the repair with pictures and informs you of any problems he may see. The whole process took about a week and a half including shipping(3 days each way).

Will be sending another 360 for repair in the near future. Thanks!
