I must tell you why will work and what you forget to add.
The contacts, in time goes loose, when you put to oven it get melt a little and renew those contacts, but.... if you don't want to have surprises you must add some paraffin or stearine for not get a shortcut between those tinny circuits. This procedure will be success 33% without stearine. For some will not work, If you add a small amount paraffin or stearine, then you get 79% work.
Video card broke (must have really overheated) while doing intensive video editing.
Baked the card @ 200C/10mins, and amazing, it works again.
Will not use the laptop anymore for video intensive stuff + turned down the colour depth to 16 bits (maybe that will help some) so that it will survive a while longer .... this is still a good laptop even though it is more than 5 years old (should be for the 2.5K Euro price tag!).
i use a dell latitude d620 for my main system. i actually tried to perform some repairs on my friends dell latitiude d610. it had an intel chipset, and it is clearly different from nvidia. i tried the same procedure you did and i got this when trying to boot with it: 1. Random Pixels 2. weird binary before bios boot screen and finally 3. getting this message: INTEL GRAPHICS_945mobile.graphics - - Operating Syetem: Microsoft Windows XP Media Center Edition2005 Message: Unsupported Graphics!
I tried to look for videos on ATI cards. cant find any? Weird, from nvidia 7000 series and up to 9000 series is all i find. I guess its not a real problem with the ATI vid cards. Just last night baked a 9800 GT oc and it seemed to work well. I guess the only real solution to the problem is get the GPU reballed with better solder. Thanks to all who post vids to solutions that help others out like me. Thanks.
I just did this for my XPS M1710's 7900 GTX and it worked! Just used the instructions for removal on Dell's Service Manual Site. People thought I was crazy for trying, but what do you know it worked.
Say people, how good is this repair? 'cause a guy wants to sell me his m1710 with a baked 7950 and i want to know, how safe is that, and will it brake again soon, does it affect the performance, and/or risk of breaking down? THANK YOU ALL IN ADVANCE! :)
@cavkic It fails after some time, I baked mine 6 months ago, and the reason I am watching this video again is to recall the baking process, yess it fails again, I think I will be doing it for another time, after that through it in the garbage and get my self a Mac.
yeah this does work but I wouldnt suggest doing it to an expensive gpu. I would take it to a computer shop and has it professionally reflowed with a reflow gun, or buy one yourself for 60 dollars or so
to all those who trying to fix this without opening your computer try this method keep ur computer on and put it inside a backpack and close the backpack and leave the computer inside while its on for around 30 to 40 mins then take the computer out unplug it and take the battery out really fast and with TWO fingers pressed and hold "Enter" for about 30 seconds then put battery on and turn computer on and quickly press on F7 as many times as u can, it should turn on. this has worked TWICE for me
@LaozDavid Yes, worked great and have had no problems. You have to be careful and not move video card till it cools down fully. I watched someone remove a card when dordwn, but the liquid solder probably moved on them, ruined the card.
i have baked my card 3 times, and the vertical problem comes back every few months. should i bake it for longer than 10 mins, or does it need to be reballed?
I saw a guy a ebay selling them for like 200$, i don't know if it is worth it. I am baking for the 4th time today, i will post the result when it's back in the system.
@Dino4D No baking longer or hotter wont work, the heat generated by normal usage causes this issue, so I have found that a laptop cooling pad blowing more cool air onto laptop helps a LITTLE, but still happens. DONT waste money, the ones off ebay could do the same thing...maybe.
Just done this with my Inspiron 9400 and it actually worked. Word of warning to those who try this, leave it in the oven to cool off. I pulled mine out straight after baking to let it cool off - and a couple of bits fell off when I put the tray down on the bench (both of those chunky grey R56 pieces). Luckily a friend was able to solder them back on for me.
I baked my video card yesterday. Cooling issue was not the problem as I check the vents, fan and temps regularly. My Ge Force 8800 GT just quit working one day. I bought another card and it was pure crap,, so I thought what the heck. It worked... I played COD MW yesterday in multiplayer and on a extreme hardcore website.
@tony36009 nope... its real. The reason why the card starts failing is because it overheats to the point where the heat melts the soldering points and begins to loose contact with some circuits. When u put it in the oven at 200C for 10 minutes, the soldering melts and falls in place where it melted from (note how he turns it over before baking it)... so there you have it... its true and very tasty...
instead of paying shop 280 euro, i decided to look this up and found these bake vids. thanks very much. i have just finished baking my NVIDIA Go 7800 video card and putting back together my dell inspiron e1705. it had booted up without screen issues. i will see how long it lasts for. if it goes again, i'm going to throw some chocolate chip cookies in when i bake it next for good luck. thanks again!
I would like to see Martha Stewart do this on her show.
"Generously dust with cinnamon before popping in the oven. Your motherboard is done when when you smell the glorious odor of BPA tickling your nostrils"
I had exacly the same symthoms on my sony vaio, nvida 7600 - graphic card chip is solderd to MB so I dismoutn everything and baked whole thing - I think there is no luck in this method, baking won't make so much damage as bad MB handling while removing it :)
By the way mine is working without any issues after baking 200C for 10 min :)
Just tried something similar with the video card in my Dell Latitude D810. Result: laptop now doesn't even boot at all. So as I thought, it's a new graphics card or a new machine
This also works permanently on Macbook Pro's with the nvidia 8600M GT chip. On mac's its more easier to dismantle & put back. On Asus its a bitch & thats why you have to do it right the first time. I never had this problem on my Asus G2S but I did dismantle it so I could put new Arctic Silver 5 Therm paste on all chips, clean all vents, tune up all joints + screws, dust off all dirt, lapped my cpu sink, full tune-up. Runs so quiet & cooler than before avoiding this problem of GPU breakdown!
I also tried this method on ASUS nVidia 9800 GTX 1GB DDR3, Gigabyte ATI 3870 DDR4 512 megabytes, Asus nVidia 6600 GT DDR3 and 256 megabytes Sapphire ATI x800 256MB DDR GTO2. On all of these graphics, which I got from friends in parts, all still work without any problems.
ATTENTION: this method only works when the boot screen is full of artifacts. If accrued no picture, so fault in a capacitor or Capacitator (I'm just a baker techniques) and the need to solder a new one.
I baked nVidia 7900GS graphics card in my Dell Inspiron 9400 for the last two years, three times and each time it was half a year and then repeat it all over again. But it is always to blame the fan from the graphics, prosecute or fails to operate, which reported always beeping speaker.
It actually worked for me too. I have a Dell M2010. symptoms were black screen with only charge indicator and bluetooth illuminated. Of course you want to first remove the heat sink from the video card. Bake at 385F for 10 minutes, cool in pan for 10 minutes. Re-assemble, re-install. All good.

i have a dell latitude d620 and my video card if fucked but it works good sometimes and then it'll fuck up again. i would try this but i finally have a working computer again that isnt older then me so i might just take it to a computer geek....or just save for a new computer since i did get this dell for free lol
Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I followed your video and did the same with my M1710 and now the graphiccard is working normally again....CHEERS!! :)
It really works, THANK U. A friend's XPS M1710 wasn't working, it had the same issue than yours. We dissembled it, we baked the Video card and now it's working.n Thanks.
It works, my 8600m GT was dead for some weeks and was a little expensive to repair, so I tried to bake it and voilá! Thank you very much for the info.
What the video doesn't show is if the cooling issues were addressed that caused the nvidia problem in the first place. 9 months is a great save but did you clear all vents and clean the fan and grills? did you use thermal grease when putting back together? was there a bios upgrade for your problem to make the fan run longer? if so did you use it ..... maybe you could have had a permanent fix.
@Spasmomen hey mate i got an old graphics card that doesn't have a fan cooler and a thermal paste in it can i oven it? my graphics card problem is doesn't appear anything my monitor can't detect it is that really fuck broken up or i can try this method?
my dell precision m90 has same problem of dots and then black screen comes after windows sign.i baked the graphic card at 200 C for 10 mins.after cooling when i pick the graphic card from oven two skin color components d solded(dropped from gpu) and then i resold them on gpu with solder.after that when i put back it in laptop .the latop won't start only the power light blinks continously.the system does not boot .kindly help in order to resolve this issue.

AFTER CARE II: Since heat is the main issue, I use i8kangul31 to monitor temperature. I have my laptop on a walmart desk that I cut a hole in, and place the laptop over it. I placed two small fans, one in the back blowing towards the usb ports and the other one underneath where i cut the hole in the desk. This keeps temperatue about the same even under game stress. Unfortunately, its mostly a desktop now, but my netbook does the laptop job. Plus, I can always move it. GL its workth it.
AFTER CARE: I don't turn off my laptop anymore or put it on standby. In part because the reason the graphic card failed was because the circuits in the card probably separated. The separation occurs because of the extreme temperatures between on and off. Baking is a simple way of re-soldering the circuits.The two times I turned the laptop off for a couple days it took more re-boots to get it to work. Fortunately, I didn’t have to bake again.
This absolutely works. But you do have to use 99% Alcohol to clean off the old paste and then apply a good thermal paste. Also don't overcook. Since you are baking chemicals, its wise to open all windows and use a fan to blow out the toxic air. I doubt you would get cancer from the limited exposure, but hey why chance it. (my computer is Inspiron E1705 with 256 GEforce 7900 gs and has lasted for 8 months. It saved me $1600 dollars and allowed me continue to play LOTRO)
I had a simular problem... The screen of my XPS 1710 went totally white. I knew it was the videocard since the computer booted up normally (i think). I dismantled it, put the video card in the oven, put on some new cooling paste afterwards and the fucker worked again... amazing!
It does not work for me. The only thing I can see on my display is a white stripe. But when I diable cooling and remove cooler than when the card starts overheating itself I can see picture how it has to be but just for few seconds before its cook it self and turn off.
My Dell XPS M1710 fried the nvidia 7900 go and I´ve paid $500 to fix it.
After 3 months the same problem happened and I stay very sad and thing to sell the pieces os the laptop or left it in the garbage but... But i Saw this video! THANKS JESUS, THANKS MAN...
Ow my goodness.. Mine had exactly the same problem.. I tought something was wrong with the driver.. Had issues with them before.. But this fully worked for me! And its a good story to tell my friends aswell :p bless you all! (ps. Now I want some pizza, 10min at 200C, haha
Thank you so much!! it worked for me perfectly..!!! thanks for sharing this with other people... it repair my nvidia ge force 8700m GT from my alienware!!!! you save me like $500 dlls. keep it up, posting videos like this one.
can this method fix the dreaded nvlddmkm.sys error ? i can't run 3d programs /games or even aero without geting the 'display drivers stopped responding and has recovered' every time.
My m1710 was working fine last night and this morning decided to not run games at all. Wanted to know if that was the first step to having all those pixels on the screen? Because my graphics card can process 2d fine but its starting to lack on the 3D and I dont want to try something so radical at this stage
Recently I also replaced the motherboard with another from a m1710 that the vid card broke could the new motherboard have affected the vid card? Any suggestions from some1 with xperience?Thx
maar kheb een vraagje ik heb me oom al gevraagd als ik me graphic card in de oven doe gaat me PC temp dan ook omlaag hijs 47C als ik em nie gebruik en als ik iets doe wordt ie 57C met blower aan
Dude, this is awsome! I have the same problem also with a DELL (Precission M2300 with Nvidia QuadroFX) and I will sure do the same. DELL didn't even want to help me out with my problem, so i will search for an oven.
Looks like my prospects are good at keeping this laptop going for a while to come on it's 3'rd HD and 1'st baking I'd like to at least get to 4'th HD and 2'nd baking if it comes to that again.
Tried what geek's said but after 3 days of looping a DVD still no problems at all CPU and GFX stayed under 60c the whole time although I do realize temperature readings may not be accurate. Maybe I got lucky but like I said the only people opposed to this have a link to a business.
worked for my dell lattidue D820 but didn't work for my dell inspiron 9300. But one is better than none. Thanks for the advice. Made a believer out of me!
@geeksarenotcool Listen, I know it's hard to believe but I have since then stressing the hell out of the system, both CPU and GPU and the thing still works!
After nine months I had to repeat the baking process (see the description) but hey I don't mind as long as it spares me the money for a new card/laptop.
@geeksarenotcool Whatever... It works perfectly for me. Only had to do it a second time after 9 months without problems, and it worked again. No chemicals needed, and I still use my oven for baking cakes as well.
Btw: at the same time I replaced the thermal pads with Arctic Silver so the system runs a lot cooler now.
Status update - still going good it's been over a week now since I baked my card looks hopefully it keeps going I also use I8kfanGUI and closely moniter my system temperature. I know I need new fans though as the CPU side fan runs at 4400 RPM but cuts out then starts again when the temps go up and the GPU side fan runs at 3500 RPM. Even with my crappy ass fans I8kfanGUI does a good job at keeping them running which keeps my system plenty cool.
@thelasthallow How wouldn't this spare me anything? Replacement card can be found at eBay, but they charge a freaking lot of money for it! This doesn't cost you anything...
Yes this worked for me too 10 minutes at 400F seemed to do the trick! I had it in repair with some incompetent repair guy for two months I get it back and I asked if it was fixed and he says yes first boot same problem fixed it myself in a hour and twenty minutes.
Symptoms - No BIOS, backlight but black screen, power icon on, a few movements inside the HD, then nothing. FN + Power does nothing much, flashing lights.
Diagnosis - your GPU fried.
Cure - A solid baking, 10 minutes under 400F
Result - healthy computer, possible side effect of you losing your mind over the idea of BAKING your card!
@Tekakwita Haha, yeah you need some cojones to do it, but for me it was all or nothing. Sure I wasn't gonna pay what they charge for a replacement card on eBay, so it was either bake the damn thing, or a whole new laptop. We're almost a year later now and I'm still using this very same laptop!
Absolutely amazing. Downloaded the service manual tonight, disassembled the M1710 and followed exactly as stated. It worked perfectly. My friend and I are sitting here in amazement, typing this comment on the actual laptop where the video card had fried. Thanks so much for saving us the cost of replacing the card...
lmfao.. this actually worked omg... never thought that this is true, but my fecking geforce fx2500, which had exactly the problem you showed... and 10 mins into the oven and its back to work. XD
Shame on me for doubting this!... Took me an hour to get it out bake it and get it back in... Now the former dead 1400 dollar laptop is as good as ever:P Dell really should link this on their support page xD
My XPS video card died last week, and found these YouTube videos about baking the card. As ridiculous as it sounds, I tried it today and my laptop works just fine now (with better thermal paste too). Thank you for this info!
Baking works, confirmed a thousand times by now. But only for soldering problems, if you have burst capacitors or a physically damaged card then you'll just get a hot broken card from the oven.
silicon + heat = bad. scientific fact. it sounds like a thermal conduction problem technically not the actual chip. but if it works for you im glad.

What the video doesn't show is if the cooling issues were addressed that caused the nvidia problem in the first place. 9 months is a great save but did you clear all vents and clean the fan and grills? did you use thermal grease when putting back together? was there a bios upgrade for your problem to make the fan run longer? if so did you use it ..... maybe you could have had a permanent fix.

AFTER CARE II: Since heat is the main issue, I use i8kangul31 to monitor temperature. I have my laptop on a walmart desk that I cut a hole in, and place the laptop over it. I placed two small fans, one in the back blowing towards the usb ports and the other one underneath where i cut the hole in the desk. This keeps temperatue about the same even under game stress. Unfortunately, its mostly a desktop now, but my netbook does the laptop job. Plus, I can always move it. GL its workth it.
deepmolloy 10 months ago
AFTER CARE: I don't turn off my laptop anymore or put it on standby. In part because the reason the graphic card failed was because the circuits in the card probably separated. The separation occurs because of the extreme temperatures between on and off. Baking is a simple way of re-soldering the circuits.The two times I turned the laptop off for a couple days it took more re-boots to get it to work. Fortunately, I didn’t have to bake again.
deepmolloy 10 months ago
This absolutely works. But you do have to use 99% Alcohol to clean off the old paste and then apply a good thermal paste. Also don't overcook. Since you are baking chemicals, its wise to open all windows and use a fan to blow out the toxic air. I doubt you would get cancer from the limited exposure, but hey why chance it. (my computer is Inspiron E1705 with 256 GEforce 7900 gs and has lasted for 8 months. It saved me $1600 dollars and allowed me continue to play LOTRO)

My experience is that it works very good. It has been over a year now and no issues.
I think it is because I loaded this fan control utility: "i8kfan" google it and install it,
I keep everything low around 50 degress, and it works like a charm.

My m1710 was working fine last night and this morning decided to not run games at all. Wanted to know if that was the first step to having all those pixels on the screen? Because my graphics card can process 2d fine but its starting to lack on the 3D and I dont want to try something so radical at this stage
Recently I also replaced the motherboard with another from a m1710 that the vid card broke could the new motherboard have affected the vid card? Any suggestions from some1 with xperience?Thx

That's because we know better. At least - you're supposed to know better if you fix motherboards.
If you want to try it - by all means go for it. But when you're done - put a DVD in - loop it - let it run for a few days.
Once it gets a little hot - it'll malfunction again. Nobody every tells you that part in these videos, do they?

@geeksarenotcool Listen, I know it's hard to believe but I have since then stressing the hell out of the system, both CPU and GPU and the thing still works!
After nine months I had to repeat the baking process (see the description) but hey I don't mind as long as it spares me the money for a new card/laptop.
Spasmomen 1 year ago
This is a bad idea - and a very temporary fix.
First - you need the right fluxing agents. And if you have them - you should not be using those chemicals in your home oven.
Second - this process is extremely crude and un-controlled - but will usually work - temporarily. Once the system heats up a bit - it will die again.
BGA rework must be done on dark IR or laser rework equipment - not kitchen appliances.
Read the Q & A at PrecisionDivision . com - you might all learn something.
geeksarenotcool 1 year ago
@geeksarenotcool Whatever... It works perfectly for me. Only had to do it a second time after 9 months without problems, and it worked again. No chemicals needed, and I still use my oven for baking cakes as well.
Btw: at the same time I replaced the thermal pads with Arctic Silver so the system runs a lot cooler now.

Status update - still going good it's been over a week now since I baked my card looks hopefully it keeps going I also use I8kfanGUI and closely moniter my system temperature. I know I need new fans though as the CPU side fan runs at 4400 RPM but cuts out then starts again when the temps go up and the GPU side fan runs at 3500 RPM. Even with my crappy ass fans I8kfanGUI does a good job at keeping them running which keeps my system plenty cool.

Yes this worked for me too 10 minutes at 400F seemed to do the trick! I had it in repair with some incompetent repair guy for two months I get it back and I asked if it was fixed and he says yes first boot same problem fixed it myself in a hour and twenty minutes.
00Pottus00 1 year ago
Symptoms - No BIOS, backlight but black screen, power icon on, a few movements inside the HD, then nothing. FN + Power does nothing much, flashing lights.
Diagnosis - your GPU fried.
Cure - A solid baking, 10 minutes under 400F
Result - healthy computer, possible side effect of you losing your mind over the idea of BAKING your card!
