Motherboard component level repair for amateures & Mac Gyvers
Rebuilding this thread I guess. In progress.
I started up this thread to kickstart my new hobby of motherboard repair and to have a reference database for anyone who might be interested in finding out a bit more on how to do this. At this point I think I will focus more on socket 1155 as it is more mainstream and the availability of components is pretty good.
This thread will focus mostly on manual removal and soldering of BGA components.Last edited by foxmobouser; 04-04-2013 at 01:14 AM.

I got a mechanical pencil and yea I agree it does work on cpu mounted pins and perhaps on some older socket types. Working with socket 1155 which I am by most part nowadays I have found that a syringe 22G works really awesome. I'm thinking of exploring smaller sizes, and working on a mod where you use the hollow syringe over a pin stump to bridge a connection with the cpu. Originally Posted by PP Mguire

Hmm if only you could add some glue to this
