    I took my laptop apart tonight because after blowing out my computer with compressed air the fans quit working and the cpu temps were running at 90 degress which in turned heated up the gpu temp to 90 and shut down my computer. Before that I was having a slight problem with overheating and wanted to reapply thermal paste. Since my fans stopped working i figured it would be a good time to tear it apart and knock two things out. However after removal i have accidentally broken MOBO cable connector and one keyboard to MOBO connection. I would just like to know what they go to and how easy it would be to solder the pins back into place. Attached are pictures. Thank you.

    **I checked what they go to. Apparently the cable goes to the left side USB port/s box icon hookup board. The little one was the socket my speakers plugged into. Neither one of these should stop my computer from running stable am i right? **
