It’s possible that the jack is damaged more than just coming loose, so a simple solder job may not be the fix. I still have my 7 year old Dell Inspiron but the touchpad stated acting up a couple of years ago. With the prices of netbooks these days, paying to have a 5 year old laptop repaired seems like having a VCR repaired.
