Dreamcast A/V port snapped off of motherboard

Post by KingNeerrrd »

I was working on my dreamcast portable mod, the DreamPort, when I picked up the motherboard with all of the pieces attached and the A/V port, (which is normally connected by some small soldered pins) and all of the pins snapped off of the motherboard. I was considering either A.) buying a for parts dreamcast off of ebay and taking it's motherboard, or B.) trying to resolder the pins myself. I decided I would reach out here first though to see if anyone knew how to fix this without soldering it or if I should just do it myself / take the motherboard from another dreamcast. If you know how to fix this please let me know, as I would like to finish this project and not have to give up just because I picked up my dreamcast off of my desk.
