Following on from this thread:

http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&a...

I need a chip removing from one PCB and soldering onto another (HDD PCB).

I'm having no luck whatsoever finding someone in the area that can do it.

Any PH'ers do this type of soldering or know of anyone, ideally locally?

Cheers!

Thanks TheEnd...

It's the little chip with the "8 soldered legs" in the top left hand corner in this photo:

Thanks TheEnd - will pop into a mobile phone repair shop tomorrow, failing that, I'll drop you a pm.

Peterperkins - basically my HDD isn't being recognised by anything that I plug it into. It will just say "Not Installed" on the BIOS screen. The HDD will spin up, however. A couple of posters in my original thread said it might be worth swapping the PCB over to see if that overcomes the issue, but first I need to swap these two little chips over for the HDD to work with the new board.
