		Hi, sorry to read about your problem, as ive taken off contacts with a soldering once in my time of console soldering. What version is you main board, and what version is your cd-rom unit, as if i have the same version, i could attempt to track a solder point with a meter on one of my systems? By the way im not sure if there is another solder point, and ive not heard of another, but i new on the scene and so looking wont hurt. Take a photo of the main board damage if you can, as that will give every one a clearer understanding. Nos9

My saturn is model 2, and my cd drive has a 32 pin chip. My console is pal. Now i'm looking for a new board, because when i turn on the console, the screen shows black

		Can you take a picture of it? I'd need to see what exactly kind of damage you caused. make sure it's good and clear and kinda big (please a 320X240 shot of the entire board WON'T help at all!)

		If you have accidentally ripped out a copper track from the board you can trace it your self it's not that hard to do,once you've traced it you can easily solder a jumper wire to connect it again seek help from a qualified service technician
