Farmer,
On;ly a thought..Find a small, hollow device that fits snugly over the pin
of the cpu. Place it over the bent pin and slowly try and straighten them. I
have used needle-nosed pliers in the past but find this method less
straining on the pins. No promises on the success but it appears that you
have nothing to lose. Good Luck
