Someone recapped my Power Mac 7100 with a beautiful set of 20+ tantalum caps. I received the board and assembled my Quadra / 7100 FrankenMac, only to discover a no chime / no boot condition. Re-seated ROM, cache, RAM, etc. and no change, so I pulled the heatsink off of the 601 CPU and found what appears to be a damaged CPU package underneath. Shoot.
He did replace the thermal compound and sent me a photo of it during replacement:
Here's what it looks like now, though:
Is the logic board completely screwed?
