Need To Buy A New Pin-header
« on: October 09, 2004, 04:29:00 PM »
Long story short.  We tried installing the Xenium Ice on a 1.6 board and failed miserably.  So we're getting a new xbox to try the install on.  The problem is, I ruined the pin-header trying to de-solder it from the original install.

Who carries pin-headers?  I checked radio shack and they don't carry them.  I don't really want to order an extra one online because then we have to wait weeks to get it.

Fry's Electornics has some.  They're mostly in California, though.

bmmods.com sells them online; no need to wait weeks B) If you email them, you may even get them to send you one via snailmail ($.37 stamped envelope) so you don't have to pay $5 shipping or w/e...

Thanks for the suggestion of Fry's Electronics.  They do have stores here in Utah... in fact, one is in the next town over from where I live.

You just saved me a headache.

I was told  radioshack has them. Also try e-mailing all the  xenium resselers. One of them forgot to include one for me in the package, so i e-mail them and they sent me one really quick. I'm sure they have plenty of the m laying around, just e-mail and they will give it to you for a fair price.
