Thread: Barrett Ram in the oven?

Hello everyone,

I went into the corner and here comes a question.

I know it is possible to repair many computer s components (motherboard, graphics card etc.) by passing Oven 3 to 4 minutes at 185 ° c, but since I have a bar memory that is showing signs of weakness (unable to boot, blue screen etc.) I have an idea:

Can you pass an array RAM oven 185 ° C for 3 minutes to give him a second wind or is it just lost?

If your bar does not work, you have nothing to lose. This technique had worked (much to my surprise) on a video card for laptops.

In fact I'm not sure the PC to crash 3 times with a blue screen portion of the old screen. Now when I leave a strip on the 2 (2x 512DDR 400Mhz) boot the pc, if I deliver the 2 it does not boot. Whatever the strip I let it boot, but not with the 2 at the same time.

Set your oven does the bar at repair if the problem is a defective weld. Generally the bars have headspreader, difficult to say how the tape will include thermal heat, similar to the labels that are often laminated.

So if you think your bar is defective, if it is still guaranteed, it is better to use warranty is safer though more expensive, if it is out of warranty then you can always try the operation you have nothing to lose.

C is true that I have a strange hissing sound when the PC is started at first I thought it was the processor that warmed a bit too much but it's true that I have not thought lookingAt condos.

FYI, I think it worked, because it's been 24 + of my pc running after having spent 3 minutes barrette oven 185 ° c and no crash! So for the moment everything is going well but until when?

And our date with the alloys 'unleaded' (RoHS, Green), the right temperature to change and is often 217 to 220 ° C (for the SnAgCu who won the most), 183 ° C was for SnPb (60/40).
