anyone who has ever installed a messiah 2..
 

after reading over the instructions on installing i'm not clear on one thing. do you have to solder anything to any VIA points? i'm fairly confident with my soldering skills(have done voltage mods on motherboards) but i'm not sure i would want to risk totaly destroying a ps2 messing up one of those VIA's.

Also do you think a local TV/Electronic repairman or something similiar would install one of these?

no need to touch vias :)
email if u required it istalled for you
