Hi everyone,
Sorry for bothering folks about my issue.

As the idiot I am, I was in the process of upgrading my Mac Mini to SSD.. In the process, my torx screwdriver accidentally slipped and I raked over part of the fan connector attached to the logic board. In the process of doing that, I broke 2 pads and a small component fell off so that the fan always runs high now.. (great...)

Can someone please help me and snap a good picture of the area around the fan connector, similar to the picture I've attached below (minus my self-inflicted damage...I'm an idiot)?

My mini is MC936LL/A, and I'm hoping one of you can graciously take a picture similar to this one..

One of my colleague can do pretty good board repair, but in the absence of an actual logic board schematic, a picture of an existing board would be a good start.

Thanks so much in advance for help...
