    Lenovo M920Q - dead (my fault)

    So yesterday I was looking for a help because of "black screen" issue after BIOS flash.

    I was testing different BIOS/EC dumps found on the Internet, and I've made a big mistake..

    After flashing bios & ec - I've plugged mainboard only (with attached radiator) to the power adapter, and after a 1 second saw a smoke coming from motherboard.

    Quickly disconnected power-supply and then I saw tweezers touching PCIE bottom pins

    The smoke came from burned N-MOSFET PQ809 (SM2404NSANC), replaced it with greater NX7002AK N-MOSFET but no luck, board is still dead.

    DC-IN is getting 20V so power adapter is working fine.
    F2 and F10 fuses are okay.

    PQ809 measures:
    G 8.3V
    S 2.9V
    D 3.3V

    COIL PL702 0V (0.01V when measuring in diode mode to ground)
    COIL PL1001 0V
    COIL PL1002 1V
    COIL PL803 5V
    COIL PL804 3.3V
    PL902 0V

    COILS near cpu socket 0V

    Is this repairable? What to measure next?

        follow the mosfet gate pin - see what drives it

          Got the same problem like you, there you able to fix it?
          Currently waiting for replacement of the burned transistor.
          I will provide feedback if it worked or not.

          Currently my Measurements are the following(with burned transistor)

            Hey Forum,

            I have a dead Acer Laptop from a friend. Find out that its a Mobo fault because Screen is working on other mobo and there are 19V on Power Jack that are going over the two Mosfets into the Mobo. So its actually charging too but no matter what i Do the leds wont come on. So i went over to the 5v and 3v Section and there is nothing at both. The 5v Rail is okay so no short but at the 3v Rail theres a short at PJ401 and on both sides from the Coil PL402 but on the capacitors there is no short. So i found a 19V 3.42Amps Charger (it works) plugged it into the Mobo and the Step...
