Do you still have the original component that was burnt off!
Its not easy to re solder them but it is possible, the problem comes if the pcb tracks have been burnt off as well. I have repaired an bum mod on an SCPH5502 before, a steady hand and small, not too hot soldering iron can do the trick, but by making a repair you may only find more problems! Lippo... think you may have been using a mig welder! (lol) The trouble these days is that it's a throw away society as far as technology is concerned. Things are made so small these days that you usually find that it isnt economicle to repair. Your best bet would be to try and source a new main board for your ps1. Then make a decision if you think its cost effective!

Has anyone ever dealt with www.videogameaccessories.com ? They have a pre moded main board for $60 + $12 shipping. A premoded board might be a good way to go for someone dumb eneough to toast one

It's not shoplifting your own goods when your returning a different system instead of the one you purchased, with a warranty label attached to the product and you bringing it back torn off they have every right to consider your trying to rip them off by returning different item then the one originally purchased and prosecute you for attempted theft.
I'll admit Wal-Mart probably won't think to check but you'll be paying 3 times the amount for the playstation if they do and you get caught.

I can probably help...
Which component did he rip off the board?
Do you have a digital camera so that you can take a picture of the board and send me? I am positive that it is a surface mounted fuse that he has destroyed, I had the same on two consoles I repaired for some low-life modder which had used a blow-torch instead of a solder iron (anyway, the console looked like that anyway...) If you can give me the location on what pin on the chip is wired closest to the component that is busted, I will tell you what to do

It is possible to solder the component back on but you will need a needle fine soldering iron bit and a pair of tweezers to hold the component. Melt a small amount of solder to the track then using your tweezers slide the component up to it, take your iron off and then solder other end. WARNING if it is a diode you are replacing then you must make sure that it goes the right way round
