Party on, Rude! ;-)

I have a comment on what you said about "before i start on resoldering
all connections"...

Maybe this isn't what you meant, but you don't have to actually
*re*solder them. That is, you don't have to remove the old solder and
add new solder. All you've got to do is touch them with a hot iron for
a few seconds to melt the existing solder. "Reflow" is the term, I
think. This shouldn't take all that long, even for a whole board or
two. I mean, yeah, there are a lot of connections, but you can move
pretty quickly from one to the next. Could be easier than trying to
find that one cracked joint.
