Hacking Broke a latch holding a flexible cable- NDSL

[Ibakecookies]

Well, I was about to finish installing, and the DS would flash on, then turn off, so I tried to relock the flexible cables into place. I accidentally removed a 'latch'. Is there anything I can do about this, or is my ds dead?

Edit: I also want to apologize for joining now to post this- I just didn't think I could find an answer anywhere else : /

its probly dead, try putting the ribbon cable in as far as you can then try putting a piece of blue tac over the cable to keep it held in place. when iv had my ds in pieces i just left that cable plugged in i would of only removed that cable if i was changing the bottom screen or touch screen.
