    Replaced ALL electrolytic caps on the power supply with Nichicon PS and PW caps; still has the random shutdown. Fires right up, boots all the way to Windows...and suddenly cuts off. Oddly enough, the WLAN module still keeps on blinking.

    Odd, very odd.
    Can someone give their insights?
    When it cuts off, do any of the voltages from the PSU turn off?

    How about the voltage on the CPU?

        Dell Latitude 7420 BIOS Unlock Gone Wrong
        by Jeff'sTech
        Hello everyone.

        I have come here with a rather specific question. I was given a Dell Latitude 7420 laptop with a busted screen, and wanted to see if I could refurbish it into my daily driver. I wanted to experiment and see if a 2-in-1 display would work as the chassis of the laptop and 2-in-1 7420 looked identical. I threw in the display and my hypothesis was correct, however, I was greeted with a locked BIOS and since I didn't know the password, I figured I'd try to unlock it somehow. I bought one of those POGO pin probe things for my CH341A programmer so I could read and make...

        Winbond 25Q16JWNIG – Asus ROG Strix Scar 18 G814JZ bricked after wrong flash – Need help
        by Vincent Kahle
        Hi everyone,

        I hope someone can help me.
        I have an Asus ROG Strix Scar 18 (G814JZ) laptop with a Winbond 25Q16JWNIG chip on the motherboard.

        Unfortunately, I flashed the wrong file (BIOS/EC/other region – I'm honestly not sure anymore), and now the laptop is completely dead: no display, no fan spin, no reaction at all.

        I have a CH341A programmer and I'm able to read and write to the chip. However, I'm not sure which software is best (AsProgrammer, NeoProgrammer, etc.) or if there's anything specific I should watch out for.
        A valid BIOS/EC backup...

        Asus Chromebox CN62 - wrong chip put on BIOS reader
        by BMCappelletti
        Long story short:
        - dad converted Asus Chromebox CN62 into Windows compatible, with mrchromebox BIOS, years and years ago
        - gave the computer to his son a couple years later
        - son now decided to revert it to Chrome OS, to sell it as original (re-writing BIOS with the backup one created by his dad)
        - too lazy to remove the board from the case, thought a voltage regulator was the BIOS chip (you know... it has 8 legs)
        (seems like the story was not that short)

        He used alligator clips to read the chip. No luck reading it. Removed chip and placed on a SOC-8...
