I have, but not to that extreme. I repaired a commodore 64. It had 1 bad memory chip. I replaced all 8 of them because they were a crappy brand. No issues, but my homemade power supply didn't have a thick enough cable. I didn't know that at the time and once I added accessories it dropped down to 3.5v. I have no idea how a 5v computer worked at 3.5v, but it did...mostly. Just color glitches. I couldn't find the issue because without the accessories it was running at 4.5v (which is low, but well within spec). So I replaced the PLA. No change. I replaced the color ram........OOPS! I lifted a trace. Repaired my issue......no change. Eventually found out that the voltage was dropping with accessories. Replaced the cable, worked fine.......until my cartridge disk emulator wouldn't work anymore. I had been using de-oxit. The card connector was covered in green slime. lol Apparently the port was completely corroded. It's a wonder it worked at all. I couldn't fix it so I had to replace it. I have no idea how many pins that is, but it's a lot. I lifted a trace on that one too. That one the trace didn't rip so it's not attached completely to the board, but it works. The color ram trace ripped. I had to bodge that one (like you see here). So my working C64 has 1 missing trace and 2 loose trace. If I were to do it again, I'd get low melt solder. I suspect it would make repairs easier. Also proper flux. And I wouldn't have looked at that inadequate cable and said, sure why not. I used it because I didn't want to have to solder 4 wires in a din connector. I think it was a 7 pin MIDI cable. Fortunately I found someone that sold me a higher quality cable with the plug already on it. If I had an original power supply I would have cut off and re-used the cables on that. But I didn't. (the original PSU will brick all the chips on the board eventually)
