If one PCI-E slot is missing, than the other does not work?

Solder paste plus new slot then bake the board? Is that what your hinting at?

Nope I mean that the piece of plastic that pulls off pushes back on. It isn't held on by anything, but the pins themselves.

Your right, you could straighten the pins back, and push the slot back on unless someone removes the pins.

Op still has a "working Motherboard " at the "MOMENT"
Anything else he does to it Risks it being Totaly Totaled Such as a Slot Repair/Baking

leave it well alone

This reminds me of one specific GTAV Trevor scene ... it has pliers and torture ... only thing missing is a motherboard

The words of reason have spoken. You know how you resolve this situation? By not tearing the GPU out of the freaking slot in the first place.

My very first infraction here was saying something unkind to someone who killed his 3960x by not using a heat sink on it because it didn't come with one. This situation makes me want to say something that will earn me one all over again for the same reason but, this IPA has stopped me.

"Take a hike!"

Wait what? When did that happen???????????????????????????????????????????? Who in their right mind would think that with a $1000 dollar CPU!?!?!?!?

Well...Do you see anything in the Bios showing that the card is in or that there is PCIE's still there?
Well, next time if its stuck like that I recommend if you must break something focus on the little plastic clip holding it in. But hindsight is 20/20

WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED?

more pics, just never heard of that before.

Try using a usb to vga adapter, that will duplicate the first screen.
