Am I fucked, guys? It's very firmly stuck in there for some reason, even after using acetone to clear out the glue. I've been using a DAC for audio in the meantime, but due to high latency when it comes to recording music, I really have to get the on-board audio available for use again. Needle nose pliers are an obvious no-go as the opening is thin as a pin-prick, and using the bic-straw to pull it out didn't work either. If it truly is gone then, should I make plans on getting a new laptop? I'd rather not, but I can spare $200 since this thing is getting old regardless.
Laptop falls off couch
connector is probably fucked unless you can into motherboard repair, but don't fret, just buy a usb sound card
just solder some wire to it and let it harden. then pull it out
Use superglue to glue something like a fuck8ng fork to it and pull. How i this hard?
Will that allow me to use the ASIO driver?
I've never soldered before, could a beginner do it?
That doesn't make any sense.
just grab a rare earth magnet, that'll pull it right out
i got a usb sound card and it shows up in ASIO no problem, even makes itself primary
Well, I suppose I'll do that then. What sound cards are recommended these days?
samefag but soldering is pretty easy. in your case it's a matter of patience and precision, not difficulty.
Use a fucking pinvice.
God damn, user, how many times do we have to tell you?
