    I don't know what that is, but I'm guessing it serves some purpose similar to the thermal pads. Just peel it off and put it back later.

    I already disassembled my laptop to try this oven baking technique. Gonna have to put the whole motherboard in though. I should probably take the round battery out of the motherboard right?

    Hello everybody, sorry for asking but, i didn't find anything about my problem, I have a Sony Vaio vgn fz11e, the model with the faulty nvidia 8400m GT video chip, it's gone bad, still works but no video performance.

    that's how the motherboard looks, is there any chance i can bake this?
    Thanks in advance

    just wanted to say THX and maybe help others with the symptoms...

    I owe a 9750 with two nvidia 7950 GTX 512MB with Win7 installed.

    Yesterday my 9750 came up with the following symptoms:
    a lot of green line artefacts in some sort of matrix style, during the BIOS screens while booting
    having a external monitor connected to it, I got BSODs after the "WINDOWS IS BEING STARTED"-screen.
    without the external screen it results in black screen & no further reactions. Starting up in "safe mode" and during the error & recovery procedures everything looks fine on both screens.
    Disconnecting the parent card did not make any change.
    Disconnecting the daughter resulted in a black screen & no boot procedure at all.
    So I "baked" the secondary (10 min @ 200 Celsius) and reinstalled everything. And everything working fine!!!

    it took me quite a while to figure out, that my problem probably could be solved with this solution, so maybe this description of the symptoms could help somebody...
