Dne, 12. 11. 2010 21:49:06 je Mitchell Laks napisal(a):
I have tried straighting them by using a credit card (or thin new
york metrocard) as a group lineup
as well as using a
lead pencil 5mm holder to straighten the indiviual tines (pins) as
well as a thin mending needle.
however it still resists putting into the socket on the asus
motherboard.
any other ideas on how to ease it in?
Thanks
Whenever that happens to me, I try to observe the pins at close range
from various perspectives; it's not that hard to spot any remaining
irregularities in the pattern of the pins. I then proceed to gently
straighten the bent pin, by degrees. Wash, rinse, repeat, until no more
irregularities may be observed. If the CPU still won't stick in, I use
a magnifying glass. However, if there's more than 10-20 pins that are
bent, it may be a royal pain in the neck, because tolerances are real
small on those little bastards...
