    Use a wood pick to take it of with hot air.
    Very soft. No sharp metal stuff. Only if your a dentist :p
    Just cook it! It's already broken.

      Thanks for the advice! I'll try it.

      On a separate note, if I replace the IT8518E HXA chip, would I have to program it? If yes, how?

        Update: Success!

        Replacing the GPU (218-0755113) fixed the issue.

        Thanks all for the help

          That's no GPU, the GPU is inside the little processor. That is the chipset. Anyway, congrats on a job well done.

            Thanks for the information

            This is the same CQ58 that I mentioned on your other post.

            I will get the working dump and share it here.
