OK, it was off for five minutes whilst I installed a 160Gb formatted hard drive instead of the 80Gb that was fitted. I then powered back up and did a clean install of OS 10.4 Tiger.Comment

I "think" it was a lack of heat sink compound on the Graphics chip - the one with all the caps around it and an insulating bit on the top, as per last two pictures.
I would guess the black staining on the chip ceramic was caused by the 'grease' in the Arctic Silver boiling out and running down by gravity. Whether any problems were caused by the dried out siilver 'dust' left behind I do not know.
I made sure that all old compound was removed before replacement. I also admit to a bias against using Arctic Silver because it contains metallic particles which, I feel, can cause problems at high clock speeds although I have no actual proof of this.Comment

Vizio e601i-A3 - Has Sound and Display, But No Backlight - Bad Power Supply Board or Bad LED Bulbs ?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.

I have wanting to do this project for quite sometime now and I finally found a switching power supply that will work on this desoldering gun station ZD-915 that the original switching power supply took a shit and just was not worth trying to fix it because this switching power is not quite big enough to handle the heater element and the vacuum pump
One note when I tested the switching power supply and the voltage control board I noticed that this desoldering gun heat up much faster than the original switching power supply which I was really surprised by to the point that I might buy... -

Hi there,
I'm looking for anyone who might have information on Apple's embedded Apple Watch charging daughterboard, ID 820-02601. This is currently used by Anker in their Apple Watch charging products, but likely by other Apple partner brands as well.
You can see the board referenced in ChargerLab's teardown of the Anker Y1811 3-in-1 MagSafe cube - they discuss the "Apple Watch wireless charging circuit" about 2/3rds down the page. It's not pictured, but the board ID reads 820-02601-A, which sure sounds like Apple.
This daughterboard uses an interesting...04-21-2025, 11:41 PM -
