820-00875 Freezing / Display issue

[Therealkilometers]

I have a 820-00875 board that came in for randomly freezing and showing this weird pixilation on the screen. I haven't found a way to reliably cause the computer to freeze. Anyone have any knowledge on what might be causing this and wear to start troubleshooting it? No Liquid or drop damage visible on the computer.

CPU Failure. Likely a drop or just random death. RIP.

Reflow RAM chips...

I was assuming CPU failure but was hoping not. Ram chips are under filled on this board.

Yeah, you can try or trash it; is your choice...
However do not make more damage on the board, or the client will claim for new one.

 

[JohnB8812]

Yeah if they're underfilled screw that. Best to tell them get new board.

Sounds good. Gonna quote them a new board and maybe try to fix the old one when I have some free time.
