Fixed Samsung RC512, 2 Toshiba C655, and got a new laptop!!
So I got this Toshiba C655 for 150. Replaced the screen and sold it to my friend.
And I liked it alot, so I got another one. But then IT CAME WITH A CRACKED BOTTOM COVERRRRR
So seller gave me a partial refund, and I had to replace the bottom cover too... Now this one is on criagslist.
I also sold the compaq Cq61 to my friend, then he broke it in one day and now asking me for a refund..
I don't know what he did, but he managed to damage the bios...
Now I have to give 260 bucks back, about to lose quite a lot of money...
I also bought this Samsung Rc512 S02 laptop for 290!
and bought a hard drive, battery and a charger and now whole set is ready for 350!
Yeah this is so far the most expensive laptop I've ever bought.
But this thing comes with QUAD CORE I7 AND GT 525M
JESUS CHRIST THAT THING IS POWERFUL!
It also comes with the newest technologies, and I loved it.
I was gonna sell it for 650, but then I decided to keep it for my self!
So I sold my LG for 410 to this pastor who lives in widbey island!
Good shit good shit!
Old baby goes.. new one comes..
I really loved LG,but it would have been better if they put a faster hdd and a better cpu...
But I will always miss that screen... that screen was just an absolute beauty...

Fixing Compaq CQ61-411 and working on gateway nv7310u
First, Compaq was easy. I just reflowed, and it works good now haha.
I also got this gateway laptop, 17.3inch big entertainment laptop.
The laptop looks spiffy and I really liked it, but it wouldn't start.
Thing is, they are using censor power button, not a manual button.
So I could not tell if the powerbutton, cable, or board was broken.
I was positively sure that it was one of them, but I didn't have money and time to do that,
So I decided to sell...
My break just started, I'm trying to do something productive this break
Hopefully I do well..
I also sold the samsung rv511 for 350! :DDD

Success after some fails! Fixed Asus X83V and Samsung RV511!
I fixed a Asus X83V gaming laptop. This person wanted to buy my old Toshiba laptop, but it got sold long time ago!
Apparently he wanted to buy a gaming laptop that can run League of Legends.
So I told him if he can wait for a bit, and he said he could.
So I looked for some gaming laptops, and found this Asus X83V for a great price.
The laptop is little outdated, but it has a switchable graphics card with a pci slot!
It was pretty cool.
DC Power jack was broken, but I've never actually learned how to solder, I decided to get a new mobo.
The laptop is good, and I sold it to the guy yesterday for 440 dollars!
Also, I managed to fix the Samsung Rv511 little before the auction ended on ebay! hahahaha
I was thinking about a way to solder everything, and realized I have a oven in my house.
So I put it in the oven for 10 min under 385 degrees, and it worked!
I know this isn't good for the board, but oh well....
I also tried it with the Lenovo laptop, but it did not work. I'll try one more time tomorrow and see what happens.
I also decided to hire one of my friend Marc during summer to work with me.
He is a very hard worker and willing to learn.
I'm going to teach him some basics tomorrow, educate him.

MORE FAIL FAIL..
THIS IS VERY DEPRESSING.
After that Samsung, This lenovo laptop again failed on me.
At the laptop review websites, it said that this laptop has gf310m...
But in fact, it had integrated grahpics! What a bullshit?
Now I cannot reflow anything, since there is no discrete gpu!
And I changed the cpu, still doesn't work!
It is just like the samsung, and it pisses me off!
And there is hardly no information about fixing integrated graphics on online.
I tried to fix the ic chip, but still does not boot..
This laptop is really nice, so I really wanted to get this thing fixed... but it dissapoints me...
God help my business. The day is coming and I hardly have 600 bucks...
I'm suppose to be around half way there.

TRYING to fix Samsung Rv511 A01!
I bought a samsung rv511 a01.
This is my first time fixing samsung laptops, and I was pretty excited.
The issue was the blank screen.
But when I got the laptop, I realized that there is no discrete gpu!
Which means there is something wrong with a cpu!
ahhhhhh and even after I changed the cpu, it still did not work.
So I am assuming it is a motherboard, but since I spent too much money on it, I'll just go ahead and sell it on ebay.
:(
