    Hi,

    A few days ago, when I was playing Dragon Age Inquisition, my laptop screen froze and was nonresponsive and I had to restart. It resulted into my card being bricked. I have paid people to try and repair the laptop but no one could help. Please help me, I love this sweet (and expensive) laptop.

    Cheapest wold be to bake the card. I used oven method and it took me few tries to get it working. It died after few months so I baked it again and it lasted even longer that time.
    That was my first tinkering with laptop and that made me buy and do my first thermal paste job. Just do your research.

    A little more info could help us help you.

    What's the symptom now when you power the computer on? What did these people try that you paid for repairs?
