    Harddrive motherboard

    Hello guys

    I have a quick question, I have the harddrive that is spinning but doesn't detect on any machine , it spins very we but not showing even on disk management.
    It a western digital, so I suspect the board or maybe corrupted bios or faulty chip
    , can I use another same identical drive and see if it will work?

          Asus ROG Strix Scar G533qm with a G733qm Motherboard, can I modify the Bios to accept G533 Bios
          by glovecaps
          Hello,

          I have a Asus ROG Strix Scar 15 (G533QM) that had a dead motherboard (Graphics card dead) and after trying to fix the motherboard with no success, I bit the bullet on a sale for a new motherboard. I ordered a motherboard for the 15 inch model which is the one that I have, and when the motherboard arrived it wasn't for a little while that I saw it was from the 17 inch model.

          My question is, can I update the Bios on this G733 motherboard to a G533 Bios.

          The reason for wanting to do this is that the keyboard isn't working as it should, and I think this...

          Legion Y540 17irh motherboard issue ( need help to know how to diagnose my motherboard)
          by Docus
          Hi everyone 😀,

          I'm here today to ask for help with repairing the motherboard of a Lenovo Legion Y540 17IRH.

          To give you some context, I'm passionate about computer repair so much so that I've invested in a lot of tools and started practicing on dead and old hardware. I've been learning how to solder and desolder components, mostly focusing on phone repairs.

          Recently, I bought a broken Lenovo Legion Y540 17IRH for just €150, and there are two main reasons why I made this purchase:
          1. I already own the exact same model, but its plastic chassis is badly damaged.

          ASUS P5GC-MX motherboard recap
          by momaka
          Here’s another motherboard that needed a full recap: an ASUS P5GC-MX.
          This one was gifted to me some years ago by user Pentium 4, along with a few other goodies. It actually came in working order with no bulging or leaking caps. However, I noted there were United Chemicon KZG caps everywhere on the motherboard. The CPU VRM output (CPU V_core) was the only exception: it had only 2x KZG. The rest was 6x UCC TMV 4V 680 uF caps… which aren’t any good news either.

          So here is what the motherboard looked like with its original caps:


          CPU VRM area up close…...

          After updating motherboard capacitors, what to do next (Asrock K7VT2, SOLTEK SL-75FRN2L)
          by dragon3x
          Hi, I have some 32 bits computer motherboards that need repair, as they fail to
          power on.

          Here are some examples :

          (N.B. "capacitors" indicated here are electrolytic capacitors located in the onboard
          switching supply area).
          (N.B. #2 : I could not find a 3300 microF aluminum-polymer with a higher voltage
          than 6.3 V.)

          1 - Motherboard #1 : this is an Asrock K7VT2 (socket A) that still works well. To put it on test
          I replaced capacitors with aluminum-polymer.
          3300 microF/6.3 V. x 4 replaced by 3300 microF/6.3 V. (KYOCERA...

          Asus VivoBook F510UA-AH51 won't run on battery after motherboard replacement
          by dhenion
          I'm working on my sister's laptop: Asus VivoBook F510UA-AH51 - The motherboard died so I replaced it.

          The original board was:
          ASUS X510UNR REV 3.0 A

          The replacement board is:
          ASUS X510UNR REV 3.0 B (identical except B vs A - I couldn't find an A board anywhere. Visually they are identical.)

          It boots right up on the replaced motherboard and everything works fine on the new motherboard - but it won't run off battery. When I disconnect the charger it immediately dies. When I plug it back in and reboot the system - it still shows the battery at...
