Hey all,
I registered on this forum in order to post this question, so please forgive any newbness that arises as a result.
A friend of mine owns an Archos 101 and it suffered a tragic accident rendering the power adapter port broken. I am an engineer and tried my best to resolder the connectors back on, but his dad had already done quite a bit of damage with his own soldering equipment. I have performed numerous tests on the board and can't quite seem to get it up and running again.
Every other part of the tablet is in good shape - screen, battery, case, etc., so I am looking to replace just the mainboard so that this device doesn't go to waste.
Where on Earth can I get a new motherboard for this? I am willing to pay, of course, but not the full price of the device (at that point I would just buy a used one). If anyone has a tablet with a broken screen or something, please get in touch with me.
Thanks very much!
Stephen
