    MSI PRO Z690-A WIFI DDR4 no reaction to the power button

    I've got an MSI PRO Z690-A WIFI DDR4 that has no reaction to the power button. I have been doing some exploration to try to determine what is wrong with it.

    The front panel PSIN# pin has 3.3V on it, so i started tracing from there to the SIO, which is a Nuvoton NCT6687D. Connectivity from the front panel PSIN# to pin 61 on the SIO is good and when I short PSIN# to GND then pin 61 goes low as it should.

    However, I noticed that SIO pin 61 PSOUT# was already low, even before I activated PSIN#. Does this mean the SIO chip is hosed or could there be another explanation? I'm not sure if I want to try replacing that chip since it has so many pins.

    There are a lot of posts with similar issue, just read it, the analysis is similar in every case. Regarding pin 61 check resistance to gnd without any power, i.e. also no CMOS battery inserted. If still short then the chip/pin might be fried, or another device connected to this network is shorted.

      HP Envy 13-BA1565na with intermittent power button
      by themosttogain
      Hope someone can give me some suggestions on this because i'm at my wits end with it...

      I have an Envy 13-BA1565na here with an Intel Core i7 i7-1165G7 CPU (board is a LA-J475P Rev 1.0) which has an intermittent power button issue. The power button is integrated into the keyboard, and I have ruled out the keyboard, BIOS and battery as being the issue.

      Basically, on mains power, the power button works fairly well. The first time you come to it after leving it sitting (either on charge or not on charge), it might take 2 or 3 presses of the button, but then the laptop boots...

      ASRock B450 Steel Legend - no reaction to power button
      by karlp028
      I've got an ASRock B450 Steel Legend that I'm trying to diagnose for no reaction to the power button.

      The SIO receives the PWRBTN# signal and sends PSOUT#, but the CPU doesn't return SLP_S3# so nothing further happens. I have been looking around the board trying to figure out why and I happened to touch the STEP-DOWN CONVERTER NB685GQ-Z (UP10 in photo) which was VERY hot (like burn your finger). This seems to provide VDDP_S5, and indirectly, VDDCR_SOC_S5, which the CPU needs in order to handle the startup signals.

      The VCC voltage powering the converter does not look right....
