the theory? goes that you've got a cracked trace in the board, so by heating it the metal reflows and makes a solid connection again.
Wait, you want me to use the heatgun against the front of the motherboard, where all the onboard components are?

I thought I was supposed to use on the back..

Also, how close and how much heat.. and for how long?
