Connector pin desoldered from the motherboard by the efforts?

Something similar I got with a Philips MSX last year.

one thing you can check - if you have the UHF lead (phono to tv ariel) you can connect up a telly with that and see if all your colours are there - if so I would suspect the connector on the motherboard

Does colour over the RF output work? If yes, it's most likely a loose connector on the motherboard.
