The plug-in slot for the HD on my Toshiba cracked and a piece broke off making it impossible to keep a solid connection for the HD contacts. Is there a 'soldering' process which can replace the plug on the motherboard so I can get the HD to make solid contact again?
Now you’re above my pay grade, sorry. I do a lot of tinkering inside PC’s, but I wouldn’t try to solder a motherboard myself.
You might do better to look on line for a USB to HDMI Adapter. The terminus of the adapter might be a DVI port, to which you can simply hook up a DVI to HDMI cable, and then on to your TV monitor’s HDMI input.
Sorry - ignore my previous post - for a second I thought you were talking about the HDMI output. For an internal Hard Drive contact, it’s a PITA to solder around a busted circuit board, but I have had some luck using home-made wire “jumpers” soldered directly to the board contacts, and then connected to a new input. Of course, I usually work on radios....
