    MacBook pro 820-2889-a no ram detect

    This motherboard does not detect a channel of the ram, while the other works well.
    a chip reballing N-Vidia has not solved the problem, connettoer ram looks good.
    you have any idea

    I believe one of the slots uses BGA to attach to the motherboard. If it's had a reflow with the memory still attached then the weight causes the BGA to break free.

            old X58 triple channel board... memtest86 memory speed?
            by eccerr0r
            Anyone run memory speed tests with an old X58-based triple channel 1st gen or any other >2 channel board? The one I have is a Gigabyte I think.

            Anyway I had four 4GB DDR3-1333 modules in the 6 memory slots and got around 11GB/sec memory speeds assuming that it went dual channel since it didn't have enough modules for triple channel. Now I stuck in two more 4GB modules, but they are DDR3-1600. I'm still getting 11GB/sec speeds according to memtest86...

            Just wondering, anyone do memory speed analysis on these triple (and higher) channel memory boards? Are there any...

            MacBook Pro 2018 with Activation Lock
            by envym
            Hi everyone!

            I have a 2018 MacBook Pro (with Sequoia OS) that I've been using for years with no problem. I recently received an M2 MacBook Pro so I'm mostly using it and not the 2018 one, but since a friend of mine needs a computer, I thought I could restore my 2018 and give it brand-new-like to my friend.

            I tried using the built-in tool to restore the MacBook (Settings > General > Transfer or restore > Delete) but it got stuck when trying to remove the Find Device configuration (it asked me for the password for my old Apple ID -now I use the same account but...

            Reverse engineering of 18650 4-channel tester
            by spleenharvester
            Hi friends

            I have reverse engineered this tester, schematic is attached and is complete except for capacitor values. These testers annoyingly have no model number but they are the ones you find on the first page of just about any website if you type in "18650 4-channel tester". There is also a 2-channel variant and a newer 8-channel variant. They are very cheap (about £15) and can measure voltage, current, internal resistance and capacity. They have a multicolour display for all these statistics. They also have terminal blocks so that if you want to use a breakout board...

            MacBook 2141 problem with reballing a video chip
            by PITERPENY
            I encountered a problem with reballing a video chip. Tell me what I'm doing wrong that sometimes the balls don't form as they should? Bottom heating 240C, top 320C, I pour flux well. And the result is this. Any advice is important....
