bought it about a year ago, mobo not working

so i got this netbook about a year ago, and it started to overheat from what I guess since I had to put it in the fridge to get it to work after I turned it off or when ever it had to reboot,

but now it wont even turn on.

I'd like to know if their a way I could fix it or a way to buy a new mobo.

thanks in advance

Placing it in the fridge while hot probably led to some condensation in the unit. Ralph

Here is a link to the only motherboard I could find. At the price they want I would part out that machine and buy a new one. What makes you think its the motherboard? Ralph

Had same problem. Found other threads online. If you can get it to run just 1 more time (via the fridge treatment), flash the latest BIOS. Fixed the problem (perhaps there's some temperature parameter for booting up?)
