PING for the Tech list..

Speaking of computers and Tech help, I wonder if it'd be possible to have a computer help forum---or maybe we do and I just haven't seen it?

While there is so much tech genius visiting this thread, may I ask a laptop question? ...

I have a Toshiba laptop that I really used a lot. Unfortunately the slot into which the hard drive slit broke and now the hard drive will not make full contact with the slot tabs. I tried to use an external that has a UBS cable but the laptop will not boot from the USB port. Is it possible to solder a new slot onto the laptop in the pocket or does t require a whole new mother board? Blasted Toshiba set up seems to have this weak point where the hard drives are connected to their motherboards ...
