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:
