My Falcon Video connection just went flakey.

I have a VGA connector attached to the video port. The screen is blank and the Falcon won't boot. I have played with the connection wiggling the Falcon VGA adapter and with enough pressure sometimes the video will come back for a second.

I did a voltage test, close to 5 volts across, so it appears that I have a flakey connection, which I believe is on the Falcon Motherboard itself.

Has anyone had a similar problem?

Would it be wise to take the case off and solder the connections on the board. What are the risks?

Any advice will be appreciated including somebody with experience in fixing falcons

:-).

Thanks Brian.
