    Re: ABIT BE6-II Posts, but can't enter BIOS

    I got a replacement for this board, same model but v1.2 instead of v1.0. It has a newer Highpoint controller (HPT370 instead of HPT366). I think that's the only real difference.

    I was able to get it cheap because only one memory slot is working. Could it be that replacing the caps will bring back the other 2 memory slots? The board is full of Jackcon capacitors. Jackcon appears on the bad cap manufacturer list

        Yes, replacing all the caps usually fixed those. Jackon was no better, probably worse than the Wendells my Soyo 6BA+IV originally came with.

            🛠️ MSI GP75 Leopard MS-17E71 – No Display, Deep BIOS/EC Troubleshooting
            by macabook
            Hello everyone,

            I’m currently working on a dead MSI GP75 Leopard (MS-17E71) motherboard (i7 CPU, NVIDIA GPU) with a no display/no backlight issue initially. After extensive investigation, I’m at a critical stage involving EC firmware, BIOS/ME region interaction, and possible deep corruption. I'm seeking advanced insight from anyone with experience in EC/BIOS sync issues or PCH-level behavior. Here’s a full breakdown:
            🧩 Initial Issue
            • Board powers on (fans spin, keyboard lights up and can be adjusted, caps lock led lights), but no display or backlight
            • External display (HDMI) shows
            ...

            ASUS TP500LA BIOS request/repair/merge?
            by jbonavita
            Hi, my laptop wont boot at all
            With original bios no POST, only LED lights
            With alternative BIOS from model TP500LN (flashed via programmer) the notebook works again
            Some issues
            A- with bios from 500LN, it won't update from bios of model 500LA (from 500LN v203 to 500LA v300)
            B- If updated from 500LN version 203 to 300, the battery stops being recognized

            Things I tried

            1- Update / clear ME: Took the non working bios, made a backup, and did this: https://www.badcaps.net/forum/troubl...theory/trouble...

            Lenovo Thinkbook 15 G2 ITL i5 (serial number: MP2BFZEF) bios request
            by Wahaz
            Hello,

            I have a Lenovo Thinkbook 15 G2 ITL i5 Laptop (serial number: MP2BFZEF) that when I turn it on, the led on the power button lights up for 5 seconds, then goes out. There's no display and nothing happens.
            So I thought it was a Bios problem.
            I found 3 bios chips on the board, which I read with a bios programmer: two XMC model bios chips and a Winbond model bios chip. Each XMC model bios chip has two partitions named XM25QH128A [3.3V] and XT25F128A [3.3V]. And the Winbond model bios chip has three partitions named W25Q80BL 3.3V, W25Q80xV 3.3V and W25Q80DV 3.3V....

            HP Pavilion Gaming Laptop 15-ec2523nd - Dimm2 slot disabled after corrupt bios repair? Advice requested.
            by Bloodhoundje
            Hi everyone,

            I have been doing hardware repair as a hobby for some years now and recently decided to learn about repairing laptops as a fun challenge.

            I managed to get my hands on a "HP Pavilion Gaming 15-ec2523nd" notebook that only shows a white power LED and doesnt respond to anything.

            After initial testing I concluded the bios seems to be corrupted since all voltages are normal and there are no shorts. HP has a feature for a bios restore from USB with winkey+B for this model. This did not work.

            I have desoldered the bios chip (GigaDevice...
