    General question about MacBook power rails for repair.
    by SarcasticOP
    I am looking at an A2337 and found this for the order of power rails and what they do. Can this be confirmed before I dive into hunting down power rails that do not exist or are not neccisary?
    • PPBUS_G3H (12.6V-12.8V)
      • This is the main power rail that supplies power to the entire system. Check this rail first, as it must be present for other power rails to work.
    • PP3V42_G3H (3.42V)
      • This power rail is derived from PPBUS_G3H and is used to power the SMC (System Management Controller) and other essential circuits. It should be present if PPBUS_G3H is working correctly.
    • PPVRTC_G3H (3.3V)

    Intel Arc A380 videocard power limit remove - BIOS needed
    by iulik17d
    Hello everyone!
    The Asrock A380 low profile card (ID 8086 56A5 - 1849 6006) have an power limit of 45W. Intel removed the possibility to increase power using the software utility, anyway the card is in an proxmox machine that doesn't run windows.
    The same hardware is in another form by the name Asrock A380 Challenger that have the same VRMs and the power limit is at 60W. I searched online and found on another website an .bin bios file from the Challenger variant, that I flashed using an CH341a. Flashng worked well, I put the card in PC and booted. GPUz shows that new device ID is 8086...

    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.

    HP Pavilion 15 bc400ns - Complete Black Screen - Only video on live usb
    by iZakre
    Hello everybody!

    To put you in context I recently replaced the battery from my HP Pavilion 15 bc400ns with a used one, everything was going good. The same day, I decided to update the BIOS, everything went good. The thing occurred after I let the battery drain iddling on Windows 11 for the second time to calibrate it that the screen did not turn on again, the computer was on but the screen did not turn, like it would not wake from hibernation. I decided to restart the computer but got no video.

    The thing is that I had installed TeamViewer and could log into the computer...

    HP 14s-fq1010nm Black screen after BIOS update - cannot downgrade
    by mitchw
    Just had a customer bring in a HP 14s-fq1010nm to do some maintenance.
    After updating the BIOS to the latest (F.35) I get black screen (no backlight turning on). However the backlight turns on if I connect an external display to HDMI, but when booting to Windows, both displays remain black.
    After disconnecting internal LCD, and plugging in external display via HDMI, it works on external.

    I tried downgrading it using official method - using an USB drive with older BIOS version, but it fails, saying that the BIOS files are corrupted. I used about 5 different older BIOS versions...
