Is the CPU destroyed by the process or did you reassemble this particular specimen?

I took the metal lid off the chip to improve the scan quality. If I had left the chip intact, it would probably be fine. (I assume the X-ray levels are low enough to avoid damage, but I haven't confirmed that.)

Also 386s are very resistant to radiation, I believe they still use them on the ISS for that reason (a radiation-hardened version but still)
