It a cheap way to re-flow the bga chip. The only way to fix it right is to have a BGA re-flow station. It isnt guaranteed to work either. So toss it in the oven and hope for the best.

Yeah, I got the link from your post and re-posted it for TheTechDude seeing as he missed it early on.
It was an interesting video. It's too bad I don't have one that's dying, I would try it out. (and I'll remember it too)
