Hello All,
I'm new to the list and I'm trying to bring my wife's 5300 back to a 
usable life.  There are two major considerations (and one minor):
1.      the AC adaptor socket on the circuit board is loose.  I have 
repaired this twice before; disassembling the 5300 and resoldering.  
But the solder joints don't hold: the plug wiggles and the joints 
break.  Any suggestions?

2.      The floppy drive is broken.  This happened when I pried out a 
defective DiskTools floppy (!).  Thus I am looking for either the 
floppy mechanism to install into the floppy module, or a complete 
module.
        
3.      this is the "minor" consideration: where is a good place to get torx 
drivers to work on the 5300?

        Feel free to contact me off list.
        Thnx in advance for any help offered.
        m.
