I fubared my agp slot on my nf7. Somehow I have bent a pin inside the slot and seems I can't get to it. I want to save this board I don't want to buy another one. What are my choices to fix this. I have thought about unsoldering the slot and putting another in its place....

Thx for the help
 
Is the bent pin visible if you shine a light in the slot? If you can see it maybe there is a chance of using a needle to push/bend it back into place.

If you have some experience, this would probably work, if you don't, you might just end up with a dead mobo. I'd definately try to bend the pin back before I tried changing out whole slot.
