Just Put the Laptop in at 300c for 7 mins and Don’t Forget to Turn

What do you do when one of the microchips on your laptops motherboard decided it doesn’t want to be connected so well anymore?

You tell it “Nuh uh! Not as long as you live under MY roof!” ….then stick it in the oven at 300 degrees celsius for 7 mins.  Home bake reflow baby!

Excuse the shitty picture.  In true Marcel fashion, I forgot to take reasonable before pictures etc. and was stuck trying to shoot through a greasy oven door.  But I assure you, it’s in there on some foil. 😀

Anyway, worked a treat.  It’s now back in my laptop and no more graphics related crashing.  Just my bad programming.
