So I'd fixed up my Midway Touchmaster Infinity a while back, changing the hard drive to a CF card so it will last. It was playing great. Then I didn't play it for a while (months... it was set aside as we were fixing up the gameroom). I go to turn it on the other day and it doesn't boot... no signs of life on the screen. So I open it up to see what's going on (hoping something just came loose when I moved it), and I find this mess near the CPU:



What the hell is that?!?! It looks nasty and appears to be a bit caustic (an SMT component lifted when I removed it), but it didn't really have any odor that I could tell. The monitor lies above that part of the motherboard, but I couldn't find anything that looked like it could have oozed that crap out. Mouse piss maybe? This was in a part of the house that never sees mice though... and these countertop units are buttoned up pretty tight, so I can't see how one would get in. And a mouse would likely chew wire if it did get in, and there's none of that.

Anyway, I think this motherboard is trash. Anyone know where to get a suitable replacement MB?
