    It's now become common place for machines to be bricked by BIOS and Firmware updates that particularly Windows 11 pushes down. I reflash on average 3 to 4 machines a week due to this.

    37:15 : the hot spot disappeared because you wiped the CPU clean, which transformed it into IR-mirror, so after that you were seeing your ceiling (room temp). some surfaces even non reflective to the naked eye (like non polished aluminium) are perfect mirrors when seen through thermal cam. Just put masking/painters tape on that kind of surface to "fix" it

    Hi Sorin, this why manufactures should be forced to fit sockets for gpu and cpu , also some form of crowbar circuit in the event of high voltage , but all that interests them is money, but a great diagnose of the problem, love the videos 73 Jim

    Sorin, my ASUS r753u failed with bios update which came from win10. It’s not manufacturer. They outsourced it to windows since not every customer is doing bios updates over a few years. This comment is in context to older video. It’s also a way to end a working laptop after 6 years of use. They want to customers to buy every 2 years. All i do is coding and Computer Science Projects. Good enough computing power for a student.

    I've owned a couple of laptops that constantly killed the GPU , after replacing several GPU boards, I found out that, SOMEHOW, the board had VRAM thermal cooling pads that were too thick, ordinarily this may not have caused me to be alarmed until I realized one thing...Thermal pads that are too thick caused the heatsink plate to lift up off of the CPU/GPU(since they require thermal paste), causing an overheating issue that totally destroyed the CPU/GPU.

    @@kenshi7563 The battery would charge and then drain instantly so it had to be plugged in all the time, then there were slower start ups and if I plugged it in and waited a few minutes it would fire up. Then it finally seemed to struggle when I went to copy files to a usb and would just shut down. Then it would not start. Only the keyboard is lit and the screen is black. Perhaps it is under warranty, perhaps I only had a year. Regardless, I purchased it on a visit back to the USA and am overseas where getting it back to Lenovo would be really costly.
