Naomi 2 repair log

Thanks for the tips guys! I went ahead and changed ic9 and ic20 and everything checked out now with a Naomi 1 game. I also just changed 116 and 118 and my Naomi is happily back to working order WOOOHOOO. It’s not slow as piss and is loading now. Wish I had the skills back then before I sold my twin initial d 3 🥹

Nice. What tools did you use for taking it off? and how do you plan to do the reballing? I might be in the same situation but not sure how to do it so I'm watching closely

Hot air station; would not recommend if you’re not experienced

I just got solder balls in different sizes to see which fits best on the pads
 
Got it back on the board but maybe I didn’t get it seated all the way; the red led is blinking while the fans are trying to spin but can’t. They’re like shaking back and forth

Edit : looks like I shorted the 3.3v rail somehow as the wire from the pay is getting hot
