What advanced repair ? adding buffer chips like on the STE ? if so, actually that wouldn't fix the issue (but ironically might help to get it working)

the one linked in the thread you posted earlier, where you put a 10k 9 pin sip on the 1772

since the previous replier mentioned the old repair that lifts up legs. I'd rather not be lifting legs and stuff.

thanks for your help but thats out of my skill range
i guess i will have to send it off to someone or just bin it

my drive says d357
though i probably broke the 1772
