Still no success getting that lead in.

Still no success getting that lead in.

Part of the problem might be that it needs to be placed at a certain angle (like the grey cable which is attach at a 45°), and I can't get that angle easily because the cable is too short. Or not. I've been working from mostly ignorance from the start with this, which crumbs leading the way. What I could have done is take a photo of the board before I removed anything. Too late for that.

This seems to be related to WiFi and Bluetooth and may be an aerial. Maybe I could get away without WiFi? Or - but I despair of this. My fingers ache with the early stages of rheumatoid arthritis, and every time I lean close enough to see clearly, my bifocals fall loose, or I block the light.. An even when it seems I've the lead in the correct position, it refuses to clip on to the point.

I feel so close to either giving up entirely or a panic attack. I DO want to finish this and restore things. The simple repair was been a nightmare from start to, well now. Even if I can't restore the NUC, I might be able to recover the grid from the SSD chip, provided I have a reader for that. But that's not something I want to think about yet. Maybe I could pay someone to restore it??? 😟 😞😖

I'll take a break so that my fingers aren't hurting and try again.

    It might be a case of taking it along to your local computer store and getting someone with younger fingers and eyesight to do the work.

    Stephen Gunnell I've been thinking that might be the case. I know exactly the place, but it'll cost me $50 at least.

    I spoke to someone at that shop. If I took it in tomorrow, it'd be ready by Sunday.
