Silver conductive pen to make traces?

[burgan]

I am wondering if it will be possible to make traces around the 16 pin using Circuitwriter (see rat shack). I have read in overclocking forums that people have used silver conductive paint to jump across pins to overclock. It seems that our problem is much the same; if not identical.

My idea is to create a new via away from the original nasty points that we are supposed toi solder to. Once a new via is created my idea is to use a small piece of pcb at the end of the via. I am hoping that Circuitwriter will be able to connect to this pcb. From the PCB it will be easier to solder a wire to it and then run to the 16 pin piece.

My concerns are:
1. whether the circuit writer will adhere to the laquered surfaace
2. wheterh circuitwriter will be able to connect electtrically to the small piece of PCB.
3. wheterh there is room to draw the traces.

any ideas or expereinces with this pen?

I might experiment with this idea ion my now fried motherboard.

thanks,

jeff

Circuitwriter pens are meant to repair small amounts of tracework. Nothing else.

If you need to repair large amounts then kynar wire's the way to go.

yea the thickness of the trace left by a conductive pen is rather unreliable and on top of that you should not try and solder to one of these traces any way.
