    First re-cap..seems ok..

    Hi everyone,

    I just finished recapping my first motherboard (for a Dell GX270). Everything seems to be working properly, system powers up fine, boots into OS with no problems... Is it safe to say this board is fixed? Or is there something else I can do to ensure I did this correctly

    Thanks!

          As long as the new caps you used are good quality then you did it correctly

          If you screwed up the soldering then I doubt it would be running now...

              Elitedesk 800 G6 SFF Bios Password Lock XM25QH128A (3.3v) - Am I doing this right?
              by BrentH561
              Hello everyone, I am looking for help to make sure I am on the right track to remove lost BIOS Admin password on an HP EliteDesk G6 800 SFF. I recently purchased this on ebay and the seller is willing to accept a return but I have already installed my new HDs, NVME, and setup proxmox so I would like to keep it.

              Here is the hardware identification specs:
              HP EliteDesk 800 G6 SFF
              Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-10500 CPU @ 3.10GHZ 16384 MB RAM
              Serial No: MXL1223499
              Product No: 26S74UT#ABA

              BIOS/IC chip seems to be the 4 pin XMC XM25QH128A (3.3v). However most              ...

              A2141 Screen replacement. Boots screen freezes on Apple Logo 1/3 status bar unless connected to second monitor.
              by abajor
              Having this very weird issue.
              The owner of this laptop complained about screen being intermittent when opening and closing, and has been using the laptop on a thunderbolt video connection since the screen failed.

              I swapped with a working screen from an A2141 waiting for parts.

              The Os exhibits this weird behavior where it boots to to 1/3 the status bar, then it makes the boop sound. It's at the log in but for whatever reason the desktop isn't loaded.

              The laptop boots fine into recovery mode. I updated from Monterey to Sonoma and the laptop still has...

              ASUS ROG STRIX B550-I GAMING - M.2_2 port not working correctly with SAMSUNG SSD980 1TB NVME SSD
              by DynaxSC
              Hi,

              I have an really very weired issue with ASUS ROG STRIX B550-I GAMING.

              Some NVME (PCIe) SSD's are not working correctly in the second M.2 socket. An example of it is the SAMSUNG SSD980 1TB NVME SSD.
              Some other NVME (I have only smaller ones) disk do work without any problem, also SAMSUNG disks, eg an MZVPV128HDGM-0000.

              The behaviour is also really very strange, i.e.:
              • The disk shows always up in BIOS - so it is recognized, so far so good
              • POST-ing with this disk with fresh Windows 24H2 installation (done in the M.2_1 socket) in the M.2_2 socket
              ...

              ASUS ROG STRIX G512LW Help
              by pete18064
              After flashing firmware the laptop boots into the BIOS, but I get a flash of the logo, and then it goes to black screen the majority of the time. There have been times when it boots into the BIOS and the logo flashes in the center of the screen and it goes to black screen. Then, there have been times when it boots into the BIOS, but only half of the screen is visible. The BIOS screen is completely visible, cropped into half of the screen. What would the suggestions be in this case? I suspect the GPU has solder issues, but I am not sure.

              I wanted to add that I checked to see if there...
