Re: Surface Pro 4 - need help with some messed up components

Thank you! Yes, of course I would not use a heatgun for smd parts. I used that only for the uefi chip and actually already regret about that :|

Is that part of the motherboard have same components for both i7 and i5 versions?

Hi everyone

Here is the case that i'm trying to solve.

[B](short intro to explain what happened)[/B]

I bought second hand Surface Pro 4 and when I tried to reinstall the Windows it appeared there was the password on UEFI. Seller don't reply anymore. I decided to reflash the UEFI chip to remove the password. So I need to remove the chip from the motherboard first.

I have basic experience of repair tablets and phones, like battery or display change. So i opened the Surface Pro 4 and removed the motherboard successfully.
