yup to many pieces of plastic ie connectors to bake properly and it wont help if Capacitors are dried out from old age or quite simply your going to bake/boil them to destruction anyway

You can however use a heat gun and target a specific area. ie the socket.

As adventurous as that sounds, it would be easier to just find someone who does BIOS programming and flash the chip there. I can't figure out how I'd remove the chip. Only some fancy IR station comes to mind.

How do you think he does it, just the way I explained it(hot swap)its not rocket science!
