I have 2 Abit boards with socket 775 pin problems.
The first, ABIT I-45CV, has pins 12 and 13 in the 7th row, pushed in so far that the top is visible but no way of pulling them back out. I count the top of the socket as the side above the 2 cutouts for mounting the CPU. This was working, but in attempting to switch out the CPU, the Cpu flipped over and lifted a pin so it protruded above the socket. I pushed the pin in, replaced the CPU and tried to boot. Board powers up, but no boot.. When I removed the CPU this time, the pins were submerged.
The other voard is an Abit IP-35 PRO. This one has the 4th pin from the left in the second row pushed in. This one starts uo, shuts down, starts up again over and over after powering on.
Short of scrapping the boards, is there a solution?
