Hi,
I was cleaning out the fan and replacing the heatsink compound on Toshiba Satellite L675D-S7052, when I noticed the GPU, an ATI® Mobility Radeon™ HD 4250, had a semi-transparent grayish discoloration to it. The system had been overheating for several weeks. Is this discoloration from the overheating?
Additionally, although the overheating problem is gone, the system is still VERY slow. Is it possible the GPU has been damaged by the overheating? Or perhaps the GPU and the CPU are both damaged by the overheating?
Thanks in advance!
Joey.
