[QUOTE="Audit13, post: 1791673, member: 394746"] It is my understanding that apple techs and AASPs are not allowed to perform board level repairs even if it's an easy fix that the apple or AASP tech could do and this is why they always replace the entire board. Take, for instance, the 2010 15" Macbook Pro with an nVidia 330gt gpu. Turned out that the problem was not the video chip but a faulty capacitor that could be easily replaced. [/QUOTE]
