Anyone know of a place that can solder my power cord connection on a dell laptop?   It's coming looose from the MB.   Dell wants to sell me a new MB, ouch!  I'd try it myself but dont want to ruin a working computer by digging into something I know nothing about.

Anyone with basic soldering skills/tools can do this harmlessly. Heck I'd say drag it over here and I'll throw a blob on it.

The biggest issue is disassembly without damaging anything.  I once killed a keyboard in my wife's old laptop attempting a similar repair.   There's alot of fragile cables and crap in there.
