Motherboard cpu socket broken pins

Could anyone show me with pics or a video on how to replace the CPU socket?

Please! I don't want to buy a new motherboard. I'am also not sure if the problem is the socket as I'm not getting any signal on the monitor.

Everything is running and when I switch on the PC on the CPU fan is spinning faster and faster. Also, I am getting buzz noise from graphics card

Here's a picture of the socket: My cpu socket

My ram didnt work i was getting 2gb instead 6gb and I read that some of the pins might be bent and they where I broke some of them trying straighting them out and I did pick out all the dirt out from it .

The pins that I broke are :

What happened before you took the CPU out? was it working and you were just upgrading it? The more detail would help.

Peter there is a point you just can't fix things.

CPU sockets are just too dense (pin wise) to de-solder or re-solder a replacement socket down without encountering a damaged via or solder pad (also many are also press-fitted in so they can't be removed). In any case the replacement has a very slim chance in working.

Sorry It's time for a new logic board ;-{

Looking at your picture there does appear to be some damage or something stuck between the pins at some locations. Your picture was not sharp enough to see what it was. Look at the 2, 6 & 9 O'clock positions from the center of the socket is this damage or dirt? Carefully pick out the dirt using some can'ed air and a dental probe and a good magnifier making sure our computer is fully off and unplugged before doing this.

Peter - Still doesn't look good here ;-{ I don't know of any way to fix the pins that you damaged. So unless someone else has an idea on how to fix this it's time for a new logic board.

There are companies and individuals that will replace the entire socket; however, it's around a hundred bucks including shipping.

Worth contacting the manufacturer. They may have options for you. Will cost you but perhaps less than new mobo.

First don't ever power on a board with a known bad socket .the pins can be repaired ,as well as socket replaced for $80.00 . Personally I repair the pins in that shape take a good magnify glass or stereo microscope and it's important to view the pins at all 4 angles to insure the proper direction to bend them (they will bend very easy ) take your time and DON'T USE TWEEZERS OR ANY CLAMPING TOOL I advise against the hyper dermic needle as its more apt to twist the hook that contacts the pad on cpu but some cases would be useful genral a plastic tool from cell phone screen replacement kit work well and push the pin from the base if possible rest the tool and your hand on the pci rail or another place so not to shake it is much easier then people think if you take your time and look down the rows in all directions KNOW EXACTLY WHAT DIRECTION THE PIN NEEDS BENT ,avoid twisting the pins as having to straighten them (twisted pins ) are near impossible to straighten but can still be aligned to touch the pad AGAIN look down the rows for alignment and if it's a complete failure then pay the 80 bucks and have it replaced here ( It's not going to hurt to try depending on how bad you want it fixed and common sense after all its not working now HOWEVER MAKE DAM SURE EVERY SINGLE PIN IS PERFECT BEFORE YOU EVEN THINK OF TRYING IT PERIOD ) GOOGLE CPU SOCKET REPAIR/REPLACEMENT make sure it's the site that says they send your socket back to you and REPLACES THE SOCKET ....Sincerely carl (Repairanydevice@gmail.com )

Oh and check the base of the pin to check if the pin has been pulled up from the socket those are more difficult but can be pushed down at the base of the socket ..NOW REMEMBER THIS I CAN'T STRESS ENOUGH THAT ONCE YOU BEND THE PINS YOU DON'T WANT TO HAVE TO FIX TWISTED OR KINKED SO LOOK DOWN THE ROWS FROM ALL 4 SIDES AND DO YOUR BEST TO PUSH THEM STRAIGHT IN THE PROPER DIRECTION AS ITS 10 X HARDER TO FIX A PIN THAT IS TWISTED AND KINKED PUSH THE BASE OF THE PIN OR CLOSE TO OVER TO HOME AND DON'T BEND THE TOP OF THE PIN THAT HAS THE HOOK .... — Carl fuller

Irfan - Did you look at the pics? His socket is damaged, so redoing the thermal paste won't help here.

Use a syringe needle to enclose the cpu pin and gently push it back into place. I use this method every day. Please do not bend too much as the pins will break and you are then looking at a new board. If you can find a local contractor, the socket can be removed the same as a bga BUT it will be expensive. If I had the board, then the syringe needle is the starting point...
