    NEC LCD4000 weird backlight issue

    ok so got a real cheap NEC LCD4000 monitor
    it's a 2003 model and the first large LCD ever made supposedly

    it has 5 inverter boards

    when i looked at it it had the bottom 3rd was dim

    so brought it home and did some inverter swapping

    since the bottom 2 werent working
    first I swapped the 3rd one wit the6th and it didn't cjange so number 6 works

    then i swapped 4 with 5 and now 4 bulbs are on
    then the bottom one came on for 20 mins then died

    they all feed each other so when i put the bad bottom one in the middle it wouldn't power the ones below it so it's definetly bad

    am i correct in assuming the bottom inverter is bad when its cold it works and after 20 mins the bottom one shuts down

    also the bottom 2 bulbs are brighter than the other 3 so the bottom must have been off for a while

      Dell G3 17 3779 Weird power cycling and shutdown/restart issue
      by SuperJames
      This one's a weird one, and still unsolved despite it having gone back to Dell once.

      Specs

      i7-8750H, GTX 1060 Max Q, 500GB SSD & Seagate 7mm 1TB HDD. 17.3 IPS screen. This has the fingerprint reader in the power button.

      Backstory

      I bought this from eBay, from a wallpapering shop. £650 in 2020 which was a good price considering it's a gaming laptop. Physically it's in perfect shape, apart from the hinge mounts on the palmrest failing in the time I've had it (I have a new palmrest for it). The usual thin plastic crap modern build quality!...

      820-02020 Super Weird Issue: Keyboard Input Character Map "Wrong"?
      by ugamazing
      So, I have a really bizarre issue that I'm struggling to identify the cause of. Working on an 820-02020 board with some bizarre keyboard/input-source character mapping. My suspicion is a possible damaged SPI ROM (U1970), perhaps, but I'm really not sure in this case:

      1. The issue is pretty weird, but when installing MacOS, I noticed my WiFi password did not work. I quickly realized the special characters (!@#$%^& etc) were not mapping correctly.

      2. I noticed the keyboard layout/input-source is defaulting to JAPANESE every single time I restore the board. I am not...

      Schematic from here: https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showthread.php?t=52924

      Backstory:
      Laptop came in as completely dead. I opened it and removed the top half of the casing (as well as battery) and tried to power it again and it turns on and post. I turned it off, unplug charger, plugged back in and nothing. No boot, no nothing. I tried resetting CMOS but no dice.

      APC BR1000G battery backup has a weird issue sometimes a bad battery icon and making a weird sound for about 30 seconds
      by sam_sam_sam
      This started a few days ago and does this about every 8 hours

      After it does this it goes back to normal no bad battery icon and no weird sounds and it goes to battery backup mode so I am not sure what is going on with this battery backup

      The battery backup is about 3 or 4 years old

      Dose anyone have any idea on how to troubleshoot this issue I have never had a battery backup do this kind-a thing before so I am not sure exactly how to troubleshoot it and where to start
