I've read about the oven baking a video card back to life before. When I first read about this, I though it was a joke post, but surprisingly it was actually serious and it actually works for many people.
Can someone shed some light on as to why this works?? If really high temperatures and revive a dead GPU, then does putting it in the freezer also have the same effect?

Putting it in the freezer will not produce the desired affect, but i can confirm that i have successfully recovered my files from a corrupted HDD by putting it in the freezer. In fact i forgot i put it in there till my wife was complaining about it a week later. Loaded it up and it has worked fine ever since. (Obviously i don't use it for anything important now.)
