Hey all

Like the title says i bent some pins on the back of my 1100t but i fixed them as in bent them back to correct position and i fitted it into the my motherboard and it fits into the socket YAY! happy days but i have no way of testing to see if the CPU works still, i have told aslong as it fits inside the CPU socket on the Mboard ity should work

Side note: i have taken the CPU out of the socket just to see if the pins and just re bent but they didn't now its sitting in the mboard

Thanks for all replies

Just try to boot it. What's the point of asking?

I believe he's paranoid considering that if there was a not connected pin, it may fry the CPU.

UNfortunately the best answer I can give is "Probably". If it was a simple bend and straighten, then usually it works. If you tore the metal a little bit or the pins aren't perfectly straight, you could break it off during install.

That said, I've bent my share of CPU pins (especially the longer pins on older Pentiums) and I was always able to get it to work again by straightening with the end of a mechanical pencil.

I have straightened them out nothing broke off while i was doing this so im good there and they are straight enough to go back into the Mboard so do you reckon theres more chance it will work

I believe that was quite a rude answer, so I shall make this quite harsh too, might be a foolish and a childish act, but, heh.

Odds are in your favor.

Theres a very High chance it will work,If it was just bent a litte and you straightned it out,You will be good.Ive bent so many pins on those amd chips.But as long as its still connected to the CPU it will be good! Good luck!

Exactly. It seems that he himself did not read his own post.
