A while back my 17" Mesh Powerview notebook packed in. Someone who knows more about hardware than I told me it was either the motherboard or proccessor that had gone wrong. It dosn't boot, although I havn't tried it for a while because the battery has no life in whatsoever.

My question is, does this proccessor look burnt out or dead or w/e. My friends think it does, but i'm not sure if it's just what remains of the thermal compound. If it is burnt out, what are the chances that everything else will work, and I might be able to put a new proccessor in it and get it working? I'm guessing if it is the motherboard then it's a lost cause.

Sorry about the massiveness of the pictures..






Thanks in advance,
Wisey

Processors rarely fail, can you be more specific with the symptoms prior to removing parts.

Did it power on at all, any thing display on the screen? Etc.
