    HP 450 G3 Strange behavior

    HI,
    Got the above laptop. As soon as the power is plugged in all lights turn on, the charging light flashes 9 times orange then 4 times orange/white, the fan spins full speed and then after few seconds restarts and same cycle repeats...... any lead..... I've noticed the I/O chip (nuvoton NPCE586HA0MX) got warm.

    Maybe a faulty SIO, try replacing it.

        NPCE586HA0MX is not programmable. As long as the SIO has the same reference, you can use it as replacement.

          HP Elitebook 820 G4 BIOS repair assistance required
          by Wutru
          Hi guys,

          If someone would be able to provide some expertise, I'd be very grateful.

          BIOS Corruption - Cause
          So I managed to corrupt my machine by installing linux and enrolling custom secure boot keys. I did choose to enroll the Microsoft keys as well, to prevent any potential bricking due to 3rd party drivers from HP being signed with those keys.
          After doing that, and rebooting(it did boot, powerLED, fanspin etc.), the laptop did not give any video output on the LCD or video connectors. I think I was able to get in BIOS and trigger the beeper by pressing ESC....

          Lenovo Legion 5 15ARH05H, NM-D281 Rev: 1.0 not work with the battery
          by dhs6512
          Hello. Lenovo Legion 5 15ARH05H, NM-D281 Rev: 1.0 board
          Initially dead. Inspection: the board was not touched, on EC IT8227E-192 2101-CXA there is a mini-burnout.
          Replaced with the same one, flashed the EC with the official firmware (had to solder to the pins), left the main firmware (Gigadevice 25LB128DSIG) original.
          When connecting the charger, the device started, gave picture and works, checked all the functions - ok.
          Connected the original battery. Only on the battery the device starts for a second, lights up the keyboard backlight and turns off.
          When connecting...

          Strange! Acer laptop not powering on but charging the battery (orange light on when charger and battery plugged in).
          by serious_electron
          Hello Everyone!

          I have an Acer Aspire A315-42 laptop. I generally leave it on for long time by closing down its lid (so it enters the sleep mode). Recently, it rained quite heavily in out area. And the humidity and moisture seem to be high. So one late evening, after I opened the lid and turned on the laptop, it did power on as the blue light turned on but after it booted to the desktop screen, just 5-10 seconds after both the screen and blue light went out and laptop shut down (the blue power light turned orange). And after 2-4 seconds that orange light went off and the laptop died.

          macbook A2918, orange light off when shut off
          by mosfetratus
          When i fully shut off mac, orange light goes off and wont react to power button. I have difficult time resetting with combination "shift+control+option and power button", because it rarely works (reason unknown), when i manage to get orange light and then press power button macbook wont turn on and orange light goes off. When i hold combination with power button it turns on, and works fine if put it to sleep mode.

          Works with battery and charges, but when i shut off i get this problem.

          It had liquid spill. Board has no corrosion, keyboard is working, power button...

          XPS 9520 not powering up. Solid orange led
          by Weelcup
          Hi friends

          I have a dell XPS 9530 which had some liquid damage to the usb area. I replaced both the usbc iCs and not I can see 20v on the meter. But it does nothing and the 20v is not passing to charge the battery or turning on the board either.

          I suspected the PD controller (usbc controller) but it will need to be flashed if I decide to replace it. I thought that if the usbc controller needs flashing then at least the board should turn on on the battery. I charged the battery externally and attached it to the laptop. Now the 11.8v is actually passed to the board I can...
