    That's the Bumpgate defect. You will probably have to replace both GPUs. If you aren't good with BGA soldering, then you won't be able to do it.

    I love putting bad caps and flat batteries in fire and watching them explode!!

    No wonder it doesn't work! You installed the jumper wires backwards

        Yes, although you'd want to be sure that the new GPUs are dated 2010 or newer, otherwise, they will have the same defect and will also fail sooner or later.

            Dell Latitude 7420 - Touchscreen not working since Mainboard replacement
            by Mirenia
            Hi everyone,

            I've got a little "problem child": my Dell Latitude 7420 2-in-1, which had a faulty mainboard.
            I replaced it, but ever since, the touchscreen no longer works — and honestly, I’m running out of ideas…

            In Windows Device Manager, I just see an I2C HID Device with error code 10. Sporadically, the touchscreen is recognized correctly for just a few seconds, but I haven’t been able to determine under which circumstances this happens.

            The touchscreen also doesn’t work in UEFI/BIOS, although it’s enabled...

            MASTER TL240 and new mainboard LW36BKC01
            by orcic
            Hello,
            I have an old MASTER TL-240 LED TV. Since it stopped working and it had a DVB-T receiver that is being dismissed in Italy, I've decided to replace the mainboard with a DVB-T2 one.
            The original problem was that when switching on the TV, the power LED was transitioning from red to steady blue, without showing video or audio.
            After checking some voltages on the power supply board (HKL-240101-B Rev. 1.4, HKL from now on) someone suggested me to replace the mainboard.
            Now I have some doubts about how to connect the new mainboard to the old power supply.
            First of...
