I don’t understand why you suffer so much time? This motherboard today is not worth $5. Do you have problems to buy another standard PC motherboard format Baby-AT with a processor socket even a little newer (for Pentium III) than you have now? See my posts:

That is also an option; I forgot about that. IMHO the FIC motherboard never was a high quality choice.

no, just my hakko iron and lots of flux and solder wick after that
it takes a lot of time but does the job...

yes these are really a POS. I am surprised why Agilent chose to put these into their highest end scopes at the time
these are not industrial grade board, not even a consumer grade, just garbage...

the scope is not mine so I have to check with the owner but certainly he does not want to alter the back panel and drill holes and stuff...
so if there is a board that perfectly replaces this POS and is cheap then yeah, I think he will consider it.
