The socket that my CPU tray plugs into had some pins get bent due to a bluetooth upgrade cable falling into the socket without me knowing while sliding the cpu tray in. Unfortunately, when removing the tray, two of those pins pulled out of the socket and came out with the tray. I straightened up all the other pins perfectly but with those two missing pins the computer won't boot.
Are those sockets replaceable? Or do I have to pull the whole motherboard? Or are they replaceable but I have to remove the motherboard to do it? The reason I ask the latter is that I have a spare motherboard installed in another tower, but don't want to go through all the trouble of pulling it out if it's not replaceable on this motherboard. Thanks in advance.
