I pulled a slot-a (A0750MPR24B) out of a 'working' GA-71XE to blow the crud out of the heat sink... and now it won't power on... did I miss something stupid???

Hi,
I'm trying to resurrect a LG OLED C1 TV that has some panel banding. I used the TCON error bypass to get a picture. I was able to update the firmware as well. But when I performed a pixel cleaning to try to get the banding out, it made the image significantly worse. I tried to undo the effects of the pixel cleaning by performing a factory reset and IN_Stop, but that didn't work. Any way to reset pixel cleaning data?... -
Just did this on my 2021 13" MBP M1. Dust-Gate design flaw still present. Depending on cleanliness of the operation environment (often eating while using MB is probably the worst). Periodic cleaning is probably warranted.
Note this is quite challenging effort. One misstep will damage the LCD flex and render it useless. So take it to someone more experienced if uncertain.

Hello guys,
could I please get some help cleaning the ME region of the attached Zbook 17 G1 bios dump (CH341a, neoprogrammer, chip-desoldered, dumped twice, identical checksum)?
Symptoms, delayed BIOS post (ca. 45 secs.) keyboard not working, touchpad not working, booting linux live, console says "Management engine not configured".
I tried following the ME firmware cleaning guide, but whatever Flash Image Tool version I try, I get the same error:
Error 10: Failed to open with processed commands.
Unable to open file: C:\Users\Elitebook... -
I had an Acer Predator Helios 300 PH317-54-75K8 (MB 6050A3087503-MB-A01(A1)) brought by a client for internal cleaning due to overheat.
Easy laptop, simple proccess, I have done it hundreds of times (literally), didn't even need to remove the motherboard. Just disconnected the battery, the fans, carefully removed the heatsink not to stress CPU and GPU, cleaned, repasted and put back together.
After I assembed it, to my ultimate surprise, the laptop didn't POST. Keyboard backlight lights up, screen does a momentary flash, and then nothing.
It did a sound on POST when...
