hmm, somehow I didn't get any e-mails about new posts here...
anyways, all the soldering is to be done on the back side of the card. nothing on the front.
second, try to get solder which has the pasta in the core of the solder wire. I hope you get the idea ;-)
when you use pasta you first must use the pasta on the component that you wish to solder and then the solder it self.
don't do this!!!! it takes a lot of explaining but trust me on this please!
use the combination I mentioned. solder and pasta combination.
you should be able to get this at radio shack I think. (don't have radio shack here in holland, but I believe it's a electronics hobby shop?
with that you can start.
first, heat up your iron and put a very little piece of solder on it. (when the iron is hot, touch it with the solder untill it melts)
second, clean the iron with an old t-shirt (I use t-shirts to clean my iron) make sure it's cotton!!!! or it will burn ;-)
third, put the solder on the pin (not using the iron yet) and then gently put the iron on it too. (read: put the iron and the solder together on the pin) just put a very little drop of solder on the pin.
fourth, have your wire that is connected to the resistor soldered (meaning that there is a little bit of solder on the wires).
[color]fifth[/color], align the wire on the pin (above the soldered pin) and use the iron the melt the wire in the solder that is on the pin.
btw: the wire to be used between the pin and the resistor should be a 12V wire (in holland it's called low current wire I think) and be sure that is is multi wire like in speaker wire. that's the best to be used.
I hope this helpes you out a bit ;-)
