The memory holder is broken

[Hextejas]

Its a dell D510 that I am trying to repair. It was working ok with 2x512 ram chips. I bought 2 expansion chips, 2x1024 and when taking out the old chips something happened to one of the tiny connectors in the memory holder. I am not sure if you can see it from these photos cause its tiny and my cell phone camera had a hard time focusing.
Anyway here it is and I was wondering if I could replace the memory holder (I am not sure what to call it and I cant see how I would remove it), or should I try and solder the broken connector back in. The soldering job scares me.

Hard to say from those pics but it looks like you may be able to push the pin back into the RAM socket, resolder it and secure it with a bit of hot snot glue or resin.
 
If not you can buy DDR2 SO-DIMM sockets easily and cheaply, just google for that.  I htink form your pics that is what the socket is.  Then it would depend on your soldering skills and equipment.  If soldering 'scares' you then probably you should not be fixing laptops...
