Here's the cheapest way to remove the solder. Go to RadioShack and buy a small soldering iron (they are like $4.00) or so and a roll of desoldering braid. With the Xbox's MoBo removed and the iron hot, place the braid on top of the holes and the tip of the iron right on top of the braid VERY GENTLY!!! The braid will absorb the solder like a sponge. ALWAYS withdraw the soldering iron and braid at the same time, otherwise the braid will bond to the copper tracks with the risk of damage.
