I don't know why but I almost always find the axial capacitors used in and have lost half their capacitance. The radials used are usually fine.

One nicely washed RISC PC motherboard. All the green corrosion in the RAM slots has washed off nicely. Next step is drying, then booting it off of a set of RO3.60 ROMs abd an ARM710 and checking the diagnostic output. (RO4 doesn't include the diagnostics and RO3 disables them on StrongARM)

Tonight in a flash of inspiration I took another look at the which has battery leak damage, thought it was dead.. but it booted 4x, I switched the ROMs for 3.7 & still boots
But needs a lot of work, VRAM not working socket might be damaged 😞

I think I need some more CDs. I’ve gone though Guns’n’Roses, Foo Fighters and AC / DC whilst working on solving a couple of complex problems today.

Sod the metaverse, this is my kind of meta. The circa 1995 RiscPC I’m restoring loading the website where I’m blogging about it being restored!
