    MBP 820-00928a need advice

    I'm working on an a1707 macbook pro for a friend of mine that said it had stopped working and will not turn back on. After opening up the laptop I discovered a short on C7382 which took the PPBUS_HS_CPU to gorund.
    After fixing the cap issue, I had 12.6 volts on the line. Not sure what or when something happened, but I am now getting 3.6 to 3.8 volts fluctuating. I was taking some volt readings and I'm not sure if I shorted something or if something else has happened.
    At this point, I'm not sure where to start looking for something to fix. Maybe the cpu fried anyway when the PPBUS_HS_CPU line shorted.
    Looking for some advice on where to start looking for issues. Any help is appreciated.​

      Mosfet Advice
      by Green Probe
      Hi, Im looking to replace some EMP21N03 mosfets on an Alienware motherboard, but I'm having trouble finding a legit supplier. The ones that are available from China have pictures with the engraved logo looking very scratchy and sketchy. Nobody in the US sells them. I'm trying to find a compatible mosfet, but I'm not well versed enough to be confident im making the right choice. Does anyone have a suggestion or advice that could help me find the right mosfet? Thanks!

      Gigabyte Eagle 3060 Ti - Boardview / Advice request please
      by user234
      Hi all,

      Recently installed a new motherboard but during the process I seemed to have damaged my Gigabyte Eagle 3060 Ti card.

      My motherboard ROG STRIX B550-A is detecting an issue with the VGA (light ON)

      I have attached 2 photo's of my GPU board, one above and the other is what I believe to be the 5V - as you can see, this has visual damage so looks suspicious to me.

      If I replace this part what are the odds this will resolve the issue? - any additional information on where to source the parts would be much apricated too!

      This is...

      Advice on rewiring this stepup transformer?
      by artvandalai
      I bought this Chinese made step up transformer to run some 220v appliances. Some of the wires were brittle and broke off. I attempted to improve some of the wiring with spade terminals and heatshrink tubing as the wires were just soldered straight to the connectors. Any advice on how to rewire the broken wires on this step up transformer? I'm unsure how to go about rewiring this to a better safe working condition.

      Seeking Advice on Enhancing Heatsink for Main Processor on SAMSUNG TV Motherboard
      by Ven
      Hello everyone,

      I'm looking to upgrade the heatsink on the main processor of my TV's motherboard for better cooling performance.

      The current heatsink is a square-shaped one (2.8cm x 2.8cn) with a basic design, and I believe a more efficient heatsink could help with thermal management and potentially extend the life of the TV.

      I'd appreciate any advice on the best type of heatsink to use, specific product recommendations, and tips for installation.

      If you've done a similar upgrade, I'd love to hear about your experience and any challenges you...

      Advice for transplanting surface mounted capacitors between laptop boards?
      by StardustTinker
      I am attempting to repair a Dell Latitude E6440 laptop that was damaged when an end user shoved something into a USB port so hard that it destroyed the port and sheared off a surface mounted capacitor located behind the USB port; effectively preventing the laptop from powering up.
      The capacitor is round approx. 5mm diameter by 5mm height with a plastic 'foot' and two small soldered pads visible (can't recall the specs printed on the top).

      In order to repair it, I'm thinking of replacing the capacitor by transplanting a similarly marked capacitor from a donor board taken from...
