This guy sent me a cheap PIV from ebay and didnt package it right.
It subsequently had some bent pins which I carefully straightened. Unfortunately one broke off. Thinking there might be a few redundant ones on the ppga I still tried to install it.
On installing windows I get a...
"While initialising device NDIS...Windows Protection error - you need to restart your computer."

It will boot into safe mode - but not into windows.

1. Reckon the pin is the cause of the error?
2. Are there any conductive glues or something I could try? A bit too small to solder I would think.
