    Help Needed for PSU Board Identification

    My almost 15 years old desktop PC decided it was about time not to power on anymore. I replaced the PSU with a spare one I had and it went back on so I guess it was it. Now I'd like to try to take a look at the old one that went bust but I'm having trouble in identifieing it. I've taken some pictures of the board but haven't been able to find the schematics or almost anything online, expect for the LC500H-12 itself, the inside board seems to not showup anything.



    Any assistance in identifying the board or pointing me toward the right schematics would be greatly appreciated!

    Thank you in advance for your help!

    Probably hard to find the right schematic for it. However you may look at the ICs get the data sheets.
    For example: what PWM and how does the protection work?

    Did you try to warm it up a little and then force start it? Observe exactly what the power supply does or doesn’t do, specifically when you start it. Does it try to start at all, or starts for a split second and then shuts down etc. You need to figure out on which side of the power supply the problem is. Is the problem on the primary or on the secondary side?

    I suggest you start noting down all the important ICs. Could be anything at this point. How did the PSU die?

      I found the same post on another site, do what they said, check if you have standby voltage

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

        Assuming...

        HP Pavilion 15-eh Board DAG7HAMB8F0 - CPU throttling to 0.4GHz (PROCHOT_EXT) and black screen

        Hi, this is my personal laptop, which the original board (lets call it Board A) blew up PU8700 (TPS51486), making a hole on the board, i had left the laptop at my desk one day with the battery fully charged and didn't touch it for a week, but when i tried to turn it on it didn't
        Thought the battery was dead, so i plugged in the charger then tried to power on, the power LED blinked once, charged LED still orange, unplugged the charger, plugged in again and I noticed the "magic smoke" smell, so i unplugged the charger, removed the back cover and saw the blown IC (the "magic...

        TCL 55S425 few horizontal lines, potential failure on both side of panel/buffer board
        by howardc64
        All left and right refers to looking from rear of TV (or looking from front with TV upside down)
        • TV came with vertical bars and no image. Found faulty TVS on left buffer board. Also replaced T-Con (may have damaged the original while hot air removing components, board has slight warp) and have full image but few horizontal lines on the screen. Some of the lines appears to be 2 pixel tall while others are 1 pixel tall.
        • Disconnecting left and right buffer board potentially reveals problems on both sides with different signals (unless this T-Con require jumper like Samsung FB_TRDY1&3) Fault

        MSI PRO B660M-G DDR4 - real bios dump from board needed (no stock bios)
        by DynaxSC
        Hi, I have an MSI PRO B660M-G DDR4 board with damaged BIOS and i need a bios dump from a real board, along with MAC, UUID and Serial Number info (eg. a BIOS screenshot and pictures from the board stickers).

        I need to reconstruct the bios on my board, based on another bios image form a real board - meaning a bios image containing MAC address, UUID and Serial number. A stock BIOS is not suffiecient, as it is impossible to discover where the MAC, UUID and SerialNumber are stored. Tried with a similar board, but there are too much differences, and the stock BIOS is missing a lot of...

        Help Needed: Samsung UE55MU8000 Dead - Possible Main Board Issue
        by Asraf Atb
        Hi everyone,

        Im looking for some advice regarding my Samsung UE55MU8000 TV with main board model BN94-11606C. The TV suddenly stopped turning on and now shows no signs of life at all not even the standby light at the bottom.

        Initially, I suspected an issue with the PSU, so I took it to a repair center. They tested it and confirmed that the PSU works perfectly, even on other TVs. Based on that, I started investigating the main board.

        I disconnected the main board from the PSU, and the backlight turned on, which seems to confirm the main board is the issue....
