That would be the Deeter dual bus heat flow extension. If you replace it then its gotta be Microsoft certified. Dont cheap out on the non certified ones.

I've tried one from china on Ebay... Thankfully Paypal got my money back.
Can't find them on Amazon either.

Most real computer repair shoppes have them though.
Quality ones tend to be about the exact same price as a new motherboard.

haness, take it to a computer specialist in your area OR spend more time in google looking for answers to your inquiries. I suspect that if that chip is cracked then you will be faced with replacing the main circuit board - PERIOD!

Ive always found that the hard part is prying up that big chip to fit it underneath.

I normally use a flat edge screw driver for this.

hmmmm, Never thought of using a screwdriver, I got a 54-bit exacto-knife set I use; It cuts right through! Then I have 4 hair dryers that I've rigged together that blow "really hot" air. Pair the hot air with the lead-based tin-foil wrap from Wal-mart, and wammo, fixed it within watching a show on netflix.

Yah, Its an old trick my Grandpa taught me when he worked on 8088's

My Grandpa used to reflow those video chipsets with a candle back in the day.

..speaking of "wammo......"

They have a "new wammo chip-replacement tool" available for purchase. Cost is a mere $2,956.00 and can be purchased at most of your finer electronic supply stores!

I'm pretty sure @sapphirescales can attest to the quality of the machines!
They do the first 8 - 12 boards perfectly for me, but once you get any type of food in it, you have to replace it.

The wax helped smooth out any bugs, which is why we use Flux these days. Not as good, but much more affordable!

another victory for the good guys. as another victim has fallen for the wrath of the kraken.

As a DIY'er I have had good luck putting the solder balls in and leaving it on the dash of my car on a hot day. Seems to really do the trick.

I like to add an extra 2 or 3 balls so that if a couple fail the customer still can rescue their data off their modem before it dies again.

Normally, If ebay has my graphics chips available I just stack them. That way if one dies you have a backup already in place.

Hmmmm, I never thought of doing that! Though I am guilty of replacing RAM Dimms with a processor, so instead of the program sitting and waiting to be processed, each program can have a dedicated processor.
