My laptop died last week. I could not get it to turn on. Never even enter the boot cycle. It would go into a three second loop, on, off, on, off.... After trying everything else I was ready to try anything. Searching the forums for any last hope I came across some voodoo magic that seem to be working for dozens if not hundreds of others. Bake the board. That's right they take there mother board out and put it in the oven for 8 minutes at 375 F. The very thing that probability kill my laptop would now save it. Only I didn't want my next frozen pizza to taste like toxic lead. So I decided to use a heat gun instead. I am now typing this post on my laptop. If you have a dead computer laying around give it a try. Hope it last.
