puntoMX Posted May 22, 2006 Share Posted May 22, 2006 Replace the connector, and if you cant then buy a USB-to-RS232 or a PCI RS232 card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firefoxthebomb Posted May 25, 2006 Share Posted May 25, 2006 I am pretty good with a soldering iron, I once fixed mine using a paper clip, I cut a small piece of a paper clip the size of the pin, then with a soldering iron with a small tip I put a small amount of solder on it and it has been working ever since.Just a thought.
