I've taken the board out (wasn't actually hard at all - it is not glued) And here is what I found:
- Via VT1612A
- Via VT1211
- Via VT6103
- ram chips: HY5DU121622CTP
- SST39SF020A
which is soldered onto the board :(
Someone with superhuman soldering skills might be able to fit a socket in its place... ain't me. (board is dual layered, so you would have to re-use those tiny pins...) If anyone can, I'll give them a unit for free - just email me.
When I needed that kind of work done I found a small PCB assembly place. They charged $40 /hour, but they were good at it, so I never paid for more than an hour.
