Solder

Is it just me or are CPS1 main boards a complete pain to try and repair? You can't get at the components to check them out as the ROM board obscures the main board. Probing the solder side is the only option, but on the smaller boards with mostly surface mounted chips this is rendered nigh on impossible.
The smaller main boards are the worst - at least the larger type gives you some access to the sound and color circuitry, but with the smaller boards you can't even access that.
That's my moan for the day.
