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The laptop is little outdated, but it has a switchable graphics card with a pci slot!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.
