    DELL N5010 I3 fluctuating stand by power

    HI!

    3.3V and / or 5V fluctuating randomly. Somtimes 0V, sometimes laptop start and stop, sometimes the controller chip gets very hot. Capacitors replaced, no luck. When i tap, or only approaching to any component in the vicinity of the stand by power with my hand power stopped or fluctuating immediately. What culd be wrong?

          Microsoft Surface Pro (5th gen) model 1796 - no power
          by PantherDave
          Hi all!

          I'm trying to troubleshoot a Microsoft Surface Pro (5th gen) model 1796 that won't power on. Motherboard model is M1007506-015. My priority is retrieving data, but the SSD is integrated so it looks like if I can't repair it it'll need to go to a data recovery company. I've done a little basic board repair before, but nothing this advanced until now. So please forgive my ignorance in advance. 😅

          I found the boardview for this laptop in the forums here, and am able to open it on my PC with FlexBV.

          Dell Optiplex 7490 AIO - red power led after flash
          by Mark01
          Hi guys,

          This is my first post! 🚀
          I have no idea what I’m doing, but I’m learning by trial and error.

          I’m currently working on a Dell Optiplex AIO 7490—one of a bunch of AIOs that mysteriously failed to POST just a few days after the warranty expired. The original issue was that the PC worked fine until it was rebooted, after which it got stuck on a black screen (no backlight), with fans spinning at normal speed and a solid white power LED. Forcing it off by holding the power button would just cause it to switch on automatically and get stuck again on...

          Dell inspiron 17 (7786) - DP/N 09P7JP - odd power issues, starting with no power LED
          by zlr8r
          hey guys, hoping for some pointers to repair an eBay bought "faulty" laptop.

          Ill try and give as much info as I can.

          Dell Inspiron 17 (7786) Laptop
          Service Tag: 5J0NHT2
          Bios: 1.9.0

          When I received this , it would only flicker on the KB backlight for a second, then off and on.
          Then it started getting weirder!
          Sometimes when attaching the AC power supply, and pressing various pre-boot diagnostic keyboard keys... it did try to boot, in fact out of a hundred attempts, the laptop did actually boot into the Bios ! but never has...

          Dell XPS 9380 No Power - After providing 3VALW and 5VALW once, they persist - still no power-up
          by seppde
          Hello everyone,
          I've recently gotten my hands on a defective XPS13 9380. I will attach a zip of the schematics and boardview.
          My first discovery on the Board was that the reverse current Diode PD103 of the 1st USB-C was blown.
          Nothing to worry about, the board got 3 USB-C ports which support Power/Charging. On I go.
          Next I inspected the power-rails to see why the diode blew up and found a short on the 3V3 rail which I traced back to the Power-IC for the LCD (UZ2). I desoldered it and the very low-ohmic short is gone. I checked on the LCD-connector that there's no short...

          Dell G3 17 3779 Weird power cycling and shutdown/restart issue
          by SuperJames
          This one's a weird one, and still unsolved despite it having gone back to Dell once.

          Specs

          i7-8750H, GTX 1060 Max Q, 500GB SSD & Seagate 7mm 1TB HDD. 17.3 IPS screen. This has the fingerprint reader in the power button.

          Backstory

          I bought this from eBay, from a wallpapering shop. £650 in 2020 which was a good price considering it's a gaming laptop. Physically it's in perfect shape, apart from the hinge mounts on the palmrest failing in the time I've had it (I have a new palmrest for it). The usual thin plastic crap modern build quality!...
