Not knowing which Dell you have I can only show a generic example. The big thing is to make sure the CPU socket and memory type is the same. Cost less than $20. https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIACTN65J1897 This are cheaper to replace than prepare. Repairing a 4 or 6 layer PCB is impossible as most of the traces are buried under ground and power planes and even if you could fix it the fix might change the length or impedance of a trace. -- Chris Albertson Redondo Beach, California ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
