Toshiba Satellite: Blue Vertical Lines And Other Messed Up

[eldridno]

Had a friend who's system got the cold solder joints on the power jack. Asked me to work on it, now It has this exact same problem...
Boots up and says
"Sdart Windows Normalli" with Characters... etc..

It's not the LCD, Virus ,... It's the Video card connection..
Anyone successfully fix this? How?

Hate to say - probably dead. It's an over-heating issue related to the graphic chip, the heat causes the ball grid array connection to crack and fail.

You can try a BGA repair, where they heat and press it back together, but the repair is not as strong as original, and it will likely fail again.

I attempted a BGA repair, which failed twice, then sold the bits - screen, CD-ROM, HDD, battery, power brick on eBay for about $400 total.
