As it turns out many laptops have this problem of hairline cracks developing in the solder. Maybe do to being mobile during the heating-cooling time. If you can get the solder to melt just enough to reconnect you may save a dead board. The same sort of thing happens with graphics cards. People who have artifacts in there graphics have bake them as well.

Do a Google search on the subject you'll be amazed. Yesterday I was skeptical but with nothing to lose. Today I'm a believer. However for some it was only a temporary fix. I'll have to wait and see.
