    Dell G15 5510 troubleshoot non-working dGPU or disabling it

    hi,

    I have a Dell G15 5510 with an intel 10th gen 8 core and I believe a RTX 3060.
    I bought it as is and it seems to have had some liquid spill.

    Currently the dGPU is not shown in the BIOS and does not seem to work at all ( not in dev manager either ).
    Besides that, some keys on the keyboard don´t work, but it seems everything else is ok - works from power, battery, charges. etc.

    I found the schematic here : https://www.badcaps.net/forum/troubl...s-and-brd-file
    but cannot find the board file anywhere, except on a paid site in some black and white form.

    I would like to troubleshoot the issue with the dGPU and if it is not fixible, electrically disable it ( page 26 of schematic it says : GC OFF 1.0 GPU Power ON/OFF).

    Can anyone help me get started ? I have been measuring near some coils that I think power the GPU and I measures 1.0V. I basically understand too little of the whole process to work constructively.
    Thank you for any hints and help!

    I found some shorts near PVC183 on the board. I soldered off the caps near but the short is still present.
    I found some additional information on page 37 of the schematics, a few mentions of DVT1 modify GPU sequence .
    Not sure if that is related to powering the dGPU off ?
    Does anyone know how to proceed? Any help is greatly appreciated!

      hp g72 b52sf disabling dgpu amd/ati
      by jean luc ferre
      Hello,
      On the pc hp g72 b52sf w10 bios:sp55430 each time that i reboot after an update i have a bsod with "video tdr failure in atikmpag.sys" .That's a problem with the ati/amd chip because when i desactivate the amd graphics in device manager the pc can work on the intel graphics. But that's not a valid solution because each time i reboot i have the bsod.
      I tried several drivers , even sp50704, to initialize this chip, but i have always the same error of bsod ,or error code 31. On my original bios sp55430 it was not possible to switch the Dgpu toward egpu because the advanced...

      Changing model number 5500 to 5510
      by diamon
      I would like to place a Dell Latitude 5500 (black color) motherboard into a Dell Latitude 5510 (silver color) chassis .
      How can I change the model number of this laptop?.
      When you're entering the bios (F12), you see in the left corner Latitude 5500, I would like to have this changed into Latitude 5510

      I have already edited the 5500 bios bin file with HxD, and changed the 5500 into 5510, but after re-flashing and soldering the chip back, the name in the left corner is still Dell Latitude 5510 (have entered the ServiceTag of the 5510 chassis).
      Have uploaded the original...
