Bent pins on motherboard 1150 socket

WhitishSoup · Feb 12, 2015

Bought a ASUS motherboard and some parts. Later when put them back together it didnt work and I got q-code 99. I sent back the motherboard to the retailer and they said that the pins were scewed and that the warranty wouldn't cover it!

I am unclear if some pins are touching eachother, if they are could that cause a shortage? Otherwise it could be fixable by a ghetto solution.. Help please!

Contact Asus, see if they can help you out.

The warranty does not cover the bent pins, if the it does not bent too much, you can try repair by yourself. I add two Youtube videos, check it out.

But, if some pins are touching eachother could it cause a shortage?

Yes if you have tried to turn it on i.e. provided power. Which I think you have done but if your motherboard have some safety feature like guard pro then it would not have caused any damage to the motherboard.

Bent pins are USER \ BUILDER damage 99.9% of the time , that's why they aren't covered.

More than likely you will need a new board.
