Hey guys, I just joined the forum today to try to get some help with my Samsung R530 laptop. It was 2 months old and I picked it up one morning to turn it on but it wouldn't. I returned it to Future Shop here in Canada to get warranty. I later found out that it had liquid damage. Looks like a small amount of milk got in through the bottom, nothing else got wet.
So there are a couple chips on the board that I can see are blown. I can get a picture of it later. Can a person buy these and replace them themselves? I have all the soldering tools and some electrical knowledge but never attempted something like this before.
What direction should I take with this? How do I know if the board itself it damaged? If I replace these damaged chips should everything be ok?
I appreciate any help you guys can give me.
