Alright, so I was switching out my 2.4GHz with a 3.0GHz. While taking out my 2.4GHz, I had a little trouble. When I took off the heatsink-fan, the chip was stuck to the bottom of it. I didn't pull it exactly straight out and I bent a few pins. Also, the lever on teh ZIF socket stayed down (probably not a good thing).
My 3.0GHz when in fine and all is good there. Then I went to put the 2.4GHz in an older system and I thought it went in fine. It acted like I had all the pins straight. Then the system wouldn't boot, and I finally got around to taking out the CPU. Sure enough, 1 bent pin. I tried fixing it, but eventually it broke off.
Now what do I do? I don't have anything to soder with. Is it even possible for a pin to be soddered back on? If so where could I get this done? Is my CPU dead?
