    ASUS ROG STRIX B550-F GAMING — Board not powering on properly

    Hi,
    I recently bought an ASUS ROG STRIX B550-F GAMING motherboard that was listed as "dead, not powering on." However, it does show some signs of life. I've performed several basic measurements and would like to share the results.
    • The board enters a "ready to power on" state after plugging in the PSU.
    • Pressing the power button increases power draw.
    • Sometimes, touching the RSMRST_L pad with a multimeter probe causes the board to shut off and return to standby.
    Measurements:
    (taken after pressing the power button, while the board is attempting to start)
    • H_SKTOOC# = 0V
    • O_RSMRST# = 0V (but 1.8V while in standby)
    • O_SLP_S3#_R = 3.3V
    • O_IOPWRBTN# = 3.3V
    • O_KBRST = 3.3V
    • PSON# = 0V
    • S_RTCCLK = 3.3V, 500–600 kHz square wave
    • LPCCLK1 = 3.3V, no waveform
    • LPCCLK0 = 3.3V, no waveform
    • LFRAME = 3.3V, no waveform
    • PCIE_RST_L = 0V
    • VDDQ, VTT, VDDP = not present
    • Standby (before pressing power button, including the ATX PSU emulator module): ~120 mA
    • After pressing the power button: ~760 mA (including the ATX PSU emulator module)
    There is no visible activity on the LPC or SPI buses.
    The board does not proceed to full startup.

    Do you have any ideas what else I could check, or what might be damaged?

    Vizio e601i-A3 - Has Sound and Display, But No Backlight - Bad Power Supply Board or Bad LED Bulbs ?
    by Tynan Dill
    I was given this TV from my great uncle. He said it just wouldn't turn on one day out of nowhere, replaced the TV, and gave it to me to possibly fix and use for myself.

    Upon bringing it home and plugging it up, it showed a standby light.

    I powered it on and without a flashlight, the display showed the "V" but the lighting is very dim, but visible.

    The screen seems to blackout and stay black, but with a flashlight I can see the display.

    With my Playstation 4 connected via HDMI, and running a game I can hear sound.

    Assuming...

    HP Pavilion 15-eh Board DAG7HAMB8F0 - CPU throttling to 0.4GHz (PROCHOT_EXT) and black screen
    by m1ch43lzm
    Hi, this is my personal laptop, which the original board (lets call it Board A) blew up PU8700 (TPS51486), making a hole on the board, i had left the laptop at my desk one day with the battery fully charged and didn't touch it for a week, but when i tried to turn it on it didn't
    Thought the battery was dead, so i plugged in the charger then tried to power on, the power LED blinked once, charged LED still orange, unplugged the charger, plugged in again and I noticed the "magic smoke" smell, so i unplugged the charger, removed the back cover and saw the blown IC (the "magic...

    TCL 55S425 few horizontal lines, potential failure on both side of panel/buffer board
    by howardc64
    All left and right refers to looking from rear of TV (or looking from front with TV upside down)
    • TV came with vertical bars and no image. Found faulty TVS on left buffer board. Also replaced T-Con (may have damaged the original while hot air removing components, board has slight warp) and have full image but few horizontal lines on the screen. Some of the lines appears to be 2 pixel tall while others are 1 pixel tall.
    • Disconnecting left and right buffer board potentially reveals problems on both sides with different signals (unless this T-Con require jumper like Samsung FB_TRDY1&3) Fault

    ASUS STRIX Z490-F GAMING - No POST, stubborn board
    by DynaxSC
    Hi,

    I have this very stubborn ASUS mobo on the bench, and I already face the wall with it. It just refuses to POST, although everything seems to be OK.

    The situation looks like this:

    After connecting the board to the power supply on Nuvoton (SLP_S3#, pin 64), the Low signal (50 ohm resistance) appears immediately. PWRNTN# signal goes through Nuvoton to the chipset (confirmed after removing the chipset). The following conditions are then met for the chipset to generate the SLP_S3# signal:

    1. RTC oscillates normally (32.768KHz).

    I bought a used replacement controller board that also had issues that I was able to fix and now the tankless water heater works correctly now

    However I would like to know if I could figure what happened to this controller board if possible

    Tomorrow I will take some better pictures of both side of both boards
