I have thinking that I could but my motherboard in oven. Since nothing else what I have tried hasnt worked.
So this is my last "change" to get laptop running again. Laptop has black screen when starting it and
thats everything what happens when booting. And people says "buy new motherboard" or they are like![]()
Anyway I have checked few videos and read text where people have done this. Common recipe look like this
bake 8 minutes in middle oven 385 degrees ~ 200 celcius.
Anyway when I get out of hospital Im going to try this out. Does anyone have tried this? results?
But like I said when I get back to home I gonna be master chiieff69 :thumbsup:

I am a fan of putting things in the oven, but I wouldn't do that in your situation. A laptop turning on but failing to boot can have many causes. Have you tried connecting your laptop to an external display? Have you reseated the processor, ram, wireless card, etc?

Which laptop are we discussing here to begin with?

Got out hospital today =). 10 cm cut in stomach anyway. Yea I have tried to do everything to get laptop work but nothing. Tried to plug tv but no response. Took all hdd rams and everything out but still not response so, I will just but it in oven and let see what happen.

I don't think that this is reasonable but wen you wan't to try it.

Just don't place it with the North Bridge chip facing downwards...

Good luck. I have baked a mobo before. Limited success, but it was fun anyway. If it is fried anyway, might as well.
Like jotm said, orientation is important. I had to try 3 times before it worked for me.

As ajkula66 said what type of laptop is it?? I recently had to bake my PS3 mobo for a YLO after 5 yrs of trusty use. Worked great and now I can finish out the last few exclusive of this gen, but..
Back to topic what laptop?? -
Cooking with Intel!

How does baking system board fix stuff?
-
It works - at least temporarily - on units that develop a BGA solder joint problem, such as some of the old ThinkPads (A3x, T4x, R5x), since the re-heating makes the solder balls reconnect to the motherboard again...people have done this with failed nVidia GPUs as well (HP, Dell, Lenovo...), although the issue there is quite different, and the "fix" is even more of a temporary one.

I think 3 out of 6 worked. -
I baked it and somehow like miracle it worked now

I managed to bring my friend's laptop GPU back from the dead by baking it in the oven, but I have never heard about successful revival of an entire laptop motherboard. Congratulations! :thumbsup:Atk-Pasi likes this.

I have done a few my self, one expensive mxm 2.1 he card then a heap of latitude d620/630 boards along with one pre-uni MBP. Can't complain about a $80 (2008) MBP

Don't over do it or it will just simply not function. I've re-flowed the pcb's on iphones to fix wifi and it worked for a couple days then I tried it a couple more times and the wifi eventually just greyed out because it was fried.
