VGN-NR220E is the model. What happens is it boots fine, but if i knock on the bottom right side of the laptop on the palm rest... it freezes up and i get some black lines across the screen. It also happens any time during the boot if i were to do that. So i am positive its a hardware issue. It has an inlet 945 express graphics chip. I did try and reflow it but it has not fixed it, maybe i will attempt again if i don't have any other good ideas.
Sometime the laptop will power on with no video output... i can hear the hdd spin.
The computer if you dont move it it works fine. Only when you shake it or knock on it a bit not tooo had it freezes up. It's like a bad connection somewhere.
Little History:
The laptop has something spilled on it and the DC jack was broken. I fixed that and cleaned it up. The spill has only affected the keyboard didn't see any residue on the motherboard it self.
It outputs to external monitor fine as well.
I used 5 quarters and a nickel for the reflow.
Any support would be helpful.
