i mean, its still doing basically the same thing as soldr, connecting the pouints.

So could i attach one end of an aligator clip to each point or just wrap a wire around them?

If the points you are refering to are the tsop write enable points. Thay are tiny spots on the motherboard, no where to clip anything, and i doubt you could find clips small enough.

Hehe, aligator clips!

even if you could find clips small enough there is nothign to clip to (or wrap a wire around) the points are just soldering pads, they are flush with the motherboard

ok, well does anyone know where i can buy one of those circuit-writer /trace repaire pens in Canada?  preferably a store, not online.

thx

I'm in the UK, but you should be able to find one in any good electronics store.  Do they have radioshacks in canada?

[chrusher97]

yeah they have radioshacks, i went in one once but couldt find one.  Maybe ill have to go to a bigger one, i was in a tiny one in a mall.

so are u sure radioshack has them?

I suggest getting a soldering iron...Just because they're easier to find.

All I had to do was connect them by dragging the pad from on to the other with the tip. It fused incredibly easy.

Get a rear window defooger repair kit from Canadian Tire, if you don't want to solder.  You are better off with the $12 15W soldering iron from Radioshack tho, its not all that hard. I learned to solder to do mine, and have done over a dozen of them w/out screwing one up.
