[QUOTE="Jeff, post: 386643, member: 21285"] Is the actual button broken, or is it broken internally, like you push the button, and nothing happens? I don't know how good you are with a soldering iron, but you might just look into replacing the motherboard. Think about it- you're going to have to buy another motherboard to scavenge the part off of(I'd think it would be hard to find just that part) and you're going to have to take it out anyway, so why not just pop the old one out, and the new one in. Screw the soldering. That's just my 2¢ though. [/QUOTE]
