I disabled my onboard VIA Rhine II nic to check something and now I can't find it. Doesn't show up in windows, doesn't show up in linux. Can't find the setting for it in bios anymore. WTF?! I put in another card so I'm back up but its kind of puzzling me. Did the chip just die? Anyone seen this before? Any diag tools or firmware for via nics?

Re: WTF my NIC is gone...
If you disabled it using the BIOS settings, it won't show up on windows or linux until you enable it in the BIOS.
I guess clearing the BIOS using a jumper will solve your problems. -
Re: WTF my NIC is gone...
was disabled in windows though. I thought about clearing the jumper for bios, I should see what it doesComment

>> was disabled in windows though.
That's odd. Given the fact that I don't feel comfortable with overclocked PCs, I'll blame the overclocking

Re: WTF my NIC is gone...
Probably the overclocking and via chipset. I learned about via and agp drive settings recently, kinda soured me on them.Comment

After upgrading the factory 128Gb SSD to a 512Gb WD_Black SN770M, this surface pro lost touch on screen, no touch in windows or in UEFI.
The Human Interface Devices did find touch and stylus but it shows Disabled in windows device manager.
I am not sure if this is a bios problem or hardware problem, already tried reinstall and reset from windows, not working. And now trying to clean/reset the bios.
Computer model is: Surface Pro 9, i5, 8GB memory, 128GB
Serial number: 0F00S2Y22353BF
Intel(R) ME Code Versions:
BIOS Version 12.200.143

Hello,
I have a Lenovo V15 G2 ITL with the memory onboard defective... I disabled the memory in the bios via a utility on the forum and since impossible to detect the SSD NVME in the Bios...
I've updated the Bios and EC but nothing changes... I thought of updating the ME frimware via Windows and I have a Log with the message ME Disabled...
I don't know what to do, should I do a ME clean?
Thanks​ -

Hello, there!
The problem with this laptop is that it does not show video at all, even if I connect an external HDMI screen device to its port.
I got it disassembled, and first of all it does have its VDC in (19.81). I checked the 5 inductors having the charger plugged in, and the voltage readings are:
TURNED OFF (without pressing the power button)
1: 9.07 VDC
2 to 5: 0 VDC
TURNED ON (after pressing the power button)
1: 9.04 VDC
2: 1.203 VDC
3: 0.813 VDC
4: 3.403 VDC
5: 5.133 VDC
I'm not quite sure if... -
Hi,
Try to repair a Thinkpad P72 EP720 NM-B723 MB with I7-8850H processor and N18E-Q1-KB-A1 (P3200) GPU with 6GB memory. Unfortunately there is noinfo what happened to the laptop. I got it disassembled with parts missing, like keyboard, battery.
Unfortunately I have no schematic available for me (requested in the sub porum) but got the boardview file.
Symptom: after connecting to the charger the power led light up for one-two second and switch off. After a couple secons the power led light up for half a second and switch off. No battery, no IO board, no...
