Super glue wouldn't hold well. I'd get some epoxy putty and just

But if it broke again right away, your solder joint was cold.
I've also seen (but have been unable to find again) a website
that showed how to refit the 520/190 with a power connector like
that in a 1400, much more robust.
I remember seeing a 5300 with a Wallstreet power connector
somewhere, but my only other 'Book is another 190 with some major
issues of some sort, or I'd try that.
Thanks for the idea about the epoxy, and I've heard from a friend
who's an electrical engineer, that silicone-based adhesives are
also good for that sort of work. Also, thanks for pointing out the
cold solder joint, because I'm not very experienced with a
soldering iron.
Also, what could be making my other 190 refuse to boot? It just
sits there and does nothing when I attempt to fire the thing up. No
chime, no drive spinning up, nothing, and this is when plugged into
an AC adapter that is known to be good.
Thanks for the advice, and in advance for the diagnosis on the
other one,
Caleb
