I've had a fairly good laptop here for a few years, got it off a friend for spares, said it died out of the blue, though post beeps when turned on which to me says it has hope of revival.
A Dell xps M 1710, bit of research suggests dead video card as it's apparently a common thing in these.
Next problem was buying one, only ebay US appears to have plently, places I'd rang here didn't.
Then I found this youtube video, where the punter baked his video card back to life.
Last night I stripped the laptop down to just the board on the base, cleaned the dust out of it, replaced the onboard battery, then did what that video says to do to the video card.
Then whilst putting it back together, thinking to myself, am I nuts, like seriously.
To my surprise, the thing works perfectly, even gets a screen resolution of 1920 x 1200, blew me away, still in disbelief it actually worked.
Who would even remotely consider that baking your video card at 200c for 10 minutes wouldn't fry it, let alone fix it.
I have tried this a few times to re-flow the BGA bumps, either didn't work or made it a lot worse lol.
I found one card I got here only works once over 60C, so it doesn't work in winter but works in summer or if I remove the fan and let it over heat for a bit it starts up.
The issue lays within the micro bumps between the die and substrate and there is no way to fix it, I dare say all cards I have had die failed this way so a re-flow can't fix them.
Also google nvidia bump gate scandal. I got 5 GPUs affected by this defect and had 2 fail and replaced under warranty.

haha, fuck that's an old but good video.
Back before internet I had done this and to my surprise it exploded, considering I had chucked 100s of cans on the fire over years and had not had one explode despite trying to ,I least expected a deodorant can to explode but they are one of the few that do and explode violently.
The issue is nearly all cans have pressure relief or a safe fail design so they just vent or spay out if incinerated. Deodorant cans all seem to lack this and explode good as.
In case you are wondering, no the door didn't blow off but the content of the fireplace ended up on the roof.

Re: Interesting youtube video's...
yeah true, and its certainly not going to end up a bad combo, and I guess in my case I wanted to be able to have the access to step from the seat through into the back, it will not be so easy in that one.
and while its way back and makes issues for fitting etc it will definitely be better with handling having the engine back that far.
