I give you Thunderbolt!

Shes is a little wounded, two bent CPU pins(I AINT SCARED):scared:. With the help of a Telescoope I'll venture to be fixin um

good luck :)

but be afraid, be very afraid :eek:

Yeah I know I had one snap off on a different board(these are barely moved), for $40 I rolled the dice. I bought it cause it said a bad booting board, nothing about bent CPU pins......................:laughing:

EASY PEEZY!

:thumbsup:


Got to get a magnifing table lamp, anybody got one?

A lil update,
I contacted the seller about the Add said "BOOT Issue", he refunded my money! :eek:

cool :thumbsup:

You can buy a nice lighted magnifying glass on Amazon, under helping hands

The show must go ON!
 

SO little update on this board, first off I messed with a few pins popped in my i5 2500K. the board powered on but no boot.
Second, my picture making abilites are crap but one rule to never forget when trying to fix anything really. IS NEVER OVER WORK SOMETHING, which I was VERY TEMPED TO DO!
:blush:
But this voice inside me kept saying, though the pins do in fact look bent they are not the cause of the no boot issue(plus one pin is ready to snap off).
In steps the voice of reason, and it tells me to look the whole board over with a fine tooth comb. As it is a pain in the rear to remove my 2500K from my other board I fixed.

BOOM!!

Upon close examination of the rear side of the board a resistor is missing, which means we got dis chit!:good:
I do need a(detailed) picture of the back side of this board(Z77) and if someone really wants to make my day, if they could measure the resistance I would be deeply indebted to them!!!!

Here's some pictures, some tools of the trade and the suspect in question. keep in mind my eyes are VERY BAD!!!:cool3:, though I wear glasses they are in fact hand me downs....................

How do you 'hand me down' a pair of glasses? :blink:

Relatives that have insurance buy news ones give me there old ones................

No help though huh? :blink:

Hey Philly i got a gigabyte P67 4UD collecting dust. I had to RMA it but havent tested it if you need a board let me know i could part with it for a few bucks and if it doesnt work you could send it back to me...

Thanks Three D!
I'm kind a short on cash, you wanna send it I'll look at it for you. If I fix it you pay, if not i'll send it back.
How did it die?

I meant that the board has already been RMA'ed to gigabyte and come back i just havent tested it. So it should work fine.
Thought you needed a board for your 2500k thats all.

THANK YOU FOR THE OFFER!
I gave your REP for that!!! What I need is a detailed picture of the Z77 board on the back side, between the first PCI-e and the CPU plate. Seen in the photo, I assume its a resistor but as its missing I do not know and that's what I need to know what it is and its value is.......

You know glasses are like, user specific, right? :laughing:
I can see Al just shaking his head in disbelief right now.

I was hoping to get a free pair :good:
