    acer predator 791g no power

    During use laptop simply shut off. also i was using throttlestop @ -150mV if this has anything to do with the problem.

    when plugged in power supply goes to short protection, gives 0.50V.

    Should i inject 19v into main power rail?

    Hi.

    1) Never just inject voltage onto rails till more is known about the condition of your logic board.

    2) Is your model also known as the ACER ASPIRE ?

    3) PU4401 is the first mosfet that is mated with the DC adapter. We can start with that investigation.

    Do you have the schematic & boardview files handy ?

    4) Does your logic board look like the attached ?

        Schematic,revision 1 but should be ok https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showthread.php?t=82221

        Edit: and a boardview https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showpo...75&postcount=6

          Ok. Found the version 1.0 schematic in the database and perhaps v2.0 of the boardview file.

          Does the attached look the same as yours ?

          It is tied to the encrypted viewer that does not allow for saving so cannot share.

                measured ohms on l8001 and i get 2.8, which is vcore. i think it's gg for the cpu

                  You have short in B+ or +19V rail. Remove R8800 and measure resistance on pin5-8 of Q8802 again. It should go up. Now measure resistance on R8800 both pads. The pad which is showing short needs voltage injection but max 1V. You can increase the Amp as much as you can. Something is likely to hot up. Find out.

                    That's fine. Dont mess unnecessarily here.

                      pad 2, which is ac-bat-sys, is 5ohm. at this moment i need to fix my bench supply by replacing tl594c. Wait for update and thanks alot for the help . my shop only have tl594cd, is it ok to replace?

                        Always check for shorted high-side MOSFET before injecting anything.

                          i tested 8 pin mosfets that connects to ac bat sys. all look fine. problem is, that is not dead short.

                            found short. u8006 "advanced mosfet" :/ without injecting voltage, was too keen to findout.

                            is there a more available ic to cis631, hard to find any.

                              got mosfets but with G not T. Replace and computer works.

                              But i get artifacts. Screen is without artifacts when i uninstall intel drivers. Sheit.

                                I think your screen resolution or refresh rate is too high for this display panel.

                                Test the idea with power up but run in SAFE mode -> then boot into Windows.

                                This will force the screen resolution to be VGA mode = 640x480 and see if you can read the graphics now with the display.

                                Once this is confirmed working, proceed to change the device driver settings for this display to be a lower resolution and lower refresh rate till you can max out the screen resolution (ie. 800x600, etc. and go up from there).

                                  bios, safe-mode looks correct. Tried to test with each ram removed - same problem. I can't change refresh rate or make custom Hz. Only resolution, but still same problem with different resolution.

                                    Meaning that your display does not look like the shared 'overscan' image ?

                                    You can read the text and view the 640*480 graphics in safe-mode ?

                                      Image is scaled OK in regular mode. Safe-mode works in 1080p rez.

                                          Acer Predator Helios 300 - will not power up if battery is CONNECTED
                                          by survivalbloke
                                          This was a no power initially. Thanks to your help, I discovered it was the first mosfet, so I replaced. Now, the device will power up only if the battery is NOT connected. As soon as I connect the battery, it shuts off. If I connected the battery while the device is off, it simply will not respond to the power button. I replaced the battery, and while I suppose the new battery could be faulty, I'm assuming it is not. I'm having the same behavior with the new battery. I measure .2v at the charging coil. Manually applying power to the + and - at the battery header, there is no charging happening....

                                          I was given this TV from my great uncle. He said it just wouldn't turn on one day out of nowhere, replaced the TV, and gave it to me to possibly fix and use for myself.

                                          Upon bringing it home and plugging it up, it showed a standby light.

                                          I powered it on and without a flashlight, the display showed the "V" but the lighting is very dim, but visible.

                                          The screen seems to blackout and stay black, but with a flashlight I can see the display.

                                          With my Playstation 4 connected via HDMI, and running a game I can hear sound.

                                          Microsoft Surface Pro (5th gen) model 1796 - no power

                                          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.
