another thing: WHen resoldering around the ICs, be very careful not to keep the heat on the pins long. i would not keep the iron on the IC pins more than 3-4 seconds, and give about 10 seconds to cool between each pin.

If you heat the IC up too much, it will be damaged, and you will have more trouble on your hands.
