Taking the computer apart won't gain you meaningful access to the plug by the by.

By best guess is using a broken toothpick and a bit of glue to stick to the plug remnants (being careful not to get any on the computer). Let it dry and pull.

Thin needle nose pliers, or a small wire 'grabby probe thing'. A quick look in the pound shop may yield a relevant tool.

Can I do this without breaking it?

I do not know.

You should be able to. Just be gentle.

queenbiff October 21 2008, 12:19:02 UTC

erm, yeah, I'm not gentle. I don't want to risk doing it myself...

You're a flower, you knows it.

If you can;t figure it... I'll do it the weekend at Nikki's with my thieves kit :-)
