(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); ok my friend tried fixing a ylod with a heat gun, he has been successful fixing it all the times hes done it which is quite a bit. After putting it back together, it wouldnt work at all. Can anybody tell me why, what would it be. He took it apart and tried putting it back together again but he was still unsuccessful.

samething happend to me. Its from fixing it way to much. you have to get it reballed. if you just want to fix it for like 5 mins or maybe even longer you can put 4 penies on the biggest gpu or cpu not sure what ones what but its the biggest one and it should let it turn back on

Double check all the ribbon cables are plugged in and if they are and it's still not powering on i think you may have moved the board to much before letting it cool down and you screwed up the components. Remember after using the heat gun method you need to let the board sit and cool for at least 10 min so you don't displace anything on the board.
