Dell Vostro 1400 no power

09-16-2013, 08:26 AM

Hi , i am new learner trying to learn laptop repairing as of now i have idea about checking individual components and tracing etc , taking out and putting back SMD stuff etc.

I want to know how voltage is distributed on the board just to understand where to get started with.

Example , from the power jack the voltage goes to which ic .. onwards to the south bridge -> north bridge (GPU) and to CPU depending on Intel and AMD.

hope you have got the point i am struggling to understand how to check voltage for a no power machine i.e looking for a starting point on the board. Thanks

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...

Microsoft Surface Pro (5th gen) model 1796 - no power

by PantherDave

Hi all!

I'm trying to troubleshoot a Microsoft Surface Pro (5th gen) model 1796 that won't power on. Motherboard model is M1007506-015. My priority is retrieving data, but the SSD is integrated so it looks like if I can't repair it it'll need to go to a data recovery company. I've done a little basic board repair before, but nothing this advanced until now. So please forgive my ignorance in advance. 😅

I found the boardview for this laptop in the forums here, and am able to open it on my PC with FlexBV.

MSI MS-7448 (DELL vostro 430) - fast power on/off, PS_ON circuitry shenanigans

by kotel studios

Hi,

Recently I had my MSI MS 7448 board from the dell vostro 430 screw up on its own. All I did was leave this PC unattended while it was installing windows and I come back to the shop and now it's powering on/off. It's on for around 1-2 seconds, then turns off for a split second and again and again... I swear the (D)HELL's just like to screw themselves up for no reason than to say "fuck you". This is my 2nd HELL pc I had die on me. It worked fine before, no weird issues at all.

I have ruled out pretty much everything (PSU, dead CMOS battery, CPU etc....). I...

Dell Optiplex 7490 AIO - red power led after flash

by Mark01

Hi guys,

This is my first post! 🚀
I have no idea what I’m doing, but I’m learning by trial and error.

I’m currently working on a Dell Optiplex AIO 7490—one of a bunch of AIOs that mysteriously failed to POST just a few days after the warranty expired. The original issue was that the PC worked fine until it was rebooted, after which it got stuck on a black screen (no backlight), with fans spinning at normal speed and a solid white power LED. Forcing it off by holding the power button would just cause it to switch on automatically and get stuck again on...
