In reply to Dave. Hi there. In your case your laptop is 17", but the motherboard is the same. Probably the issue is wit "CHIPSET" chip, not graphic chip. try first to do a rework of the chipset chip, how we do in the video and you will see if there are any changes. The temperature of the hot air that we work with is 400 Degrees Celsius. Some recommends that need to be lower (around 350) but there you will need more time to heat the chip. The time depends from the soldering material.

I have a 7520 which won’t boot. It appears from web searches the graphics chip is he issue. Is it worth ordering the proper sized BGA adaptor for the hot air gun? What is the best temperature to ruin this at?

In reply to samir. ACER Aspire have a Ati Radeon Graphic Card unlike the one that we have here - Nvidia. The ATI chips are more difficult to do a rework. The procedure is the same as we shown in the video. You can try to do the same as we do, if you have luck maybe you will fix your laptop.

In reply to mark. Hi, ACER Aspire 5520 is one of the laptops that easy can make a rework on the chipset and to work again, but some times if the chipset was overheated a lot or after a couples of reworks, you need to do rebolling of the chipset.
