    Anyone else been having problems with chinese laptops using ESSX8336 / ES8336 audio?

    This audio chipset has been a pain to deal with, most of the time its impossible to find drivers for chinese laptops that have no name/brand, or generic rebranded laptops.
    Huawei also started to use it BUT they no longer host drivers on their website since they want you to force their PC manager app that often refuses to install after bios flashing and apparently the generic drivers around wont work on some intel systems and others wont work on amd systems, the generic ones have worked only once and i think i have had this problem on 30+ laptops so far in the last year.

    CDS‑200B ultrasonic cleaner - (other generic Chinese cleaners are somewhat similar)
    by itsthatidiotagain
    CDS‑200B ultrasonic cleaner - AKA James Ultra 7050 etc.

    There are many versions of cheap Chinese ultrasonic cleaners, and a fair few share this design, with a removable tank with handle. There are also fixed tank versions which look to use the same basic layout and presumably the same PCBs.

    I picked one up "spares or repair" on ebay, and the cleaner was dead, but the fuse wasn't blown.

    A quick diode check revealed D7 was shorted. D7 is a 12V 1/2 Watt Zener. I had one in my stash, so this was about as close to a "five minute repair" as...

    USB problems?
    by Hondaman
    Recently I discovered my SSD died (OCZ/Toshiba 240 GB). It was in a USB enclosure, attached to the Linksys WRT-AC1200 router. Since then I removed the USB enclosure and attached it to my Win7 PC (AMD 8150 CPU, 970 chipset, 64 GB RAM). I also gathered one or two other USB enclosures to figure out what is going on.

    (I suspect that I lost quite a few MP3 and FLAC files I recently ripped from my audio CDs, I think I lost very little un-replaceable stuff.)

    I think it is IMPOSSIBLE for Win7 to have any problems with a USB enclosure as long as Win7 knows how to speak to the...

    help SG2701B01-7 panel chinese, would this integrated circuit be equivalent? Chinese IC CS601C regulator.
    by valente222
    Hi, I'm repairing this Chinese SG2701B01-7 panel. There isn't much information about it. The original part for the panel is a CSOT CS601C regulator. I can't find anything commercial on Aliexpress; there's only the CS601 without the final 'C'. They claim it's a variant. But will it be compatible? Well, my diagnosis on this screen is a video problem; the image is practically black, although there is HDMI communication. The LED light is on (backlight), but there is no VGL, no 3.3V, and no VSS. It seems that this IC is the one controlling these voltages. The monitor worked correctly for a moment and...

    by clabr
    Need help to solve some problems with this laptop.

    After working in bed with it one night and heating up too much (probably the cause of this problems) the sata HDD OS windows froze
    After restart the original Sata HDD was not recognized anymore (but works fine in other laptops or PCs)

    Tried connecting other good Sata 2.5 HDDs but not one is working in this laptop anymore (not the original nor others)

    Before this had happened I observed some other problems:
    When I tried replacing original mecanical HDD with a SSD HDD could not get them...
