Thanks for your response. Shame I'm in Australia.

If I was in the UK I wouldve preffered to getting it fixed by you and then letting you mine with it for a week.

I think I will have to find a PC repair shop that has a Hot air soldering station. I did try to very gently bend down the pins but I snapped one.
I think if I dont find a solution in the next week I may auction it off on here. A few tenths of a bitcoin is better than nothing.
Will keep yas updated.
