    MacBook Pro 14". The screen DP chip failed.

    When replacing the screen of this MacBook model, the DP855A chip must be moved from the existing screen for the screen to operate properly.
    However, when I removed the DP855A chip from the existing screen, I must have done something wrong and the chip broke.
    Testing the chip pins with a multimeter revealed a short circuit inside the chip.
    Is it impossible to repair this? I couldn't find a programmer...

    Samsung/UN65H6300AF LOGO APPEARS AND SHUTS OFF
    by Super360
    Hi as you can see from title, I have a samsung tv here that will show the smart tv logo and then no picture after that even hitting input or menu on remote and shows nothing but the backlight still appears to be on. The tv will turn itself off after a minute or so automatically. I'm somewhat confused if this is either a eeprom problem or a bad led strip problem. The power supply makes a pretty noticeable humming sound when it's turned on leading me to believe one of the leds are shorted but idk honestly. Any of you guys have any help for me? I have a good multi meter and can take pictures of whatever...

    Is it no harm to replace with capacitor without ripple current rating?
    by chth96
    When I tried to repair LG 29 inch CRT TV, I found that the ESR value of samyoung SMS capacitor(160v 2.2uf), which is very close to D1879 transistor, is 6 ohm.

    HP Omen 15-dh0052nf power-on & bios password
    by Nopslide
    Hello everyone, I come here to tell you my problem regarding the power-on password. It is not a bios reset demand, and i can't have any access to windows. This is the bios and power-on password that is blocking all other things.

    My Omen 15-dh0052nf purchased second-hand was configured with the bios password upon purchase (very simple password :P ).

    Having decided to sell it in order to get something more powerful, I reset all BIOS settings and set a blank administrator password. But the power-on password cannot be changed to a blank one so I let the actual password set....

    Help me find the short circuit on this WORKING Nvidia GTX1650
    by aaronkatrini
    Hi all,

    Recently picked up this GTX1650 at a local flea market for a low price and wanted to use it on my secondary PC. I first tested the card and saw the fan spin for a split second and then nothing. Immediately I thought of a short circuit. Disassembled and found a shorted SMD capacitor, injected voltage into it (1V/4A) and two Mosfets got hot immediately (QN3103 & QN3107). Desoldered these Mosfets and the card turned back to life.

    Bought replacements from Aliexpress and replaced them afterwards. Tried the card but still the saw the fan spin for a split second...

    LG 43LH510V Backlight problem
    by unimatrix93
    Hello everyone,

    I'm trying to fix a small LG TV with wierd issue.

    So I check that the display is OK by fashing a lamp at the screen. LCD is okay OSD is showing up.
    Now since the BL is dark, I disconneted the BL from the mainboard and I injected voltage to it with my blacklight tester.
    The BL turns on, the tester shows around 80V. So the led strips are okay it seems.

    Now I started to suspect the BL driver IC which is a MP3378.
    I have a donor board (dead cpu) with the same IC, so I swapped the driver IC but it did not solve the issue.

    Context: When I was out the house my partner hard shutdown laptop while BIOS was updating, so my son has no working laptop now. Also as a result I know the BIOS on the chip is messed up so I can’t extract it using the ch341a and use it to perform the method explained on site to modify an update downloaded from the ASUS website to get the BIN to flash.

    If anyone can help with a BIOS BIN/ROM file for this laptop, I would be forever in your debt! Thanks if you can help!

    Alienware 17 R3 freezing in games

    Hi guys.
    I own Alienware 17 r3 6820HK GTX 980M.
    I purchased it recently tried some gaming (Rise of the Tomb Raider, Serious Sam) and after 10-15.min games freeze, but I could hear audio from game.
    Now I am not yet at home, but when it happens I do get separate window error message and will post it later.
    Then again there are moments when I could play for like an hour and no errors.
    From my experience reading about this issue, this means my GPU is dying, correct?
    I installed most recent nVidia drivers.
    Temp of GPU while gaming is max 76 C, but usually around...

    klipsch kda-500 amplifier suitable power supply capacitor replacement ?
    by r2digital
    I have a klipsch kda-500 that would turn on and allow me to get into the web management but it was picking up a lot of noise from audio sources so i decided to replace the smd caps on the power supply along with radial one. Some one was in here before me and they basically burned the bottom side of the traces off for the radial cap but i was able to repair it without any real problem. I thought i did a good job sourcing out replacement caps but apparently not and now i can't get the power supply to turn on it just constantly try's to keep turning on. Attached is a picture of the power supply before...
