I can't see any bent pins?
Looks like a pretty darn good job you've done, no idea why it's still falling over :/
RMA it?

FF means attempting to boot to OS. There's nothing wrong with the hardware.

There were some bent pins in the socket. After about 10 repair attempts I finally got it good enough.

She's running now!!

Man that was some seriously delicate surgery to repair/rebend some of those pins.

Don't feel bad...I pulled a pin clean out of my 1090T removing a pot some time ago. No chance of rma for that lol.
