| If you heat up the red epoxy with a hot air pencil while removing it with a fine pick, most will come off. Be very careful not to hit board with pick and damage traces. Then when removing chip, at 240c-245c it will soften the rest of the epoxy enough to remove the chip. I usually discard the chip after the excessive heat it takes to remove the epoxy and use a new chip.
Anyone else out there with different methods of removing this red epoxy?
As for the person with the wireless question. Yes the G6150 also controls the PCI express wireless circuit. So if the wireless isn't working, the G6150 is the problem.
