Hello everyone!
I'm excited to join this forum and connect with fellow electronics enthusiasts. My journey into the world of electronics began about five years ago in Denmark when I started studying to become an electrotechnician. After that i pursued a different formal education, my passion for electronics has remained a significant part of my life.
In my spare time, I dedicate myself to repairing various electronic devices, with a particular focus on GPUs. This hobby allows me to stay connected to the field I love and continually hone my skills. Whether it's diagnosing issues, soldering components, I find immense satisfaction in bringing malfunctioning electronics back to life.
I'm also the go-to person for my family, friends, and former coworkers whenever they encounter electronic problems. From troubleshooting and repairing household gadgets to providing advice on electronic projects, I'm always eager to lend a helping hand.
Joining this forum, I hope to share my experiences, learn from others, and contribute to the community.Comment

A WELCOME to everyone that joins in!!
Peta, ofcourse some advertising would always be helpful to making this a success.... This forum has existed since October 6th 2003, online the first time at about 9:00PM CST. Being a couple days old, atleast there's traffic...
I don't know if this forum will be a huge success or not, I created it out of requests from viewers, so we'll see how many actually join... If it takes off, I'll be tickled pink!! If it flops, I'll simply remove it.
A little about me?!?
HMMM I'll give a little info... I've been in the electronics field since 1991, with experience ranging from TV/VCR repair all the way to industrial electronics for a very large and well known manufacturer. I started in computers in 1994, just for a change and something I thought would be more challenging.... First of all, in the computer field, I AM NOT a number cruncher (programmer) YUK!!!!! I'm a hardware/network guy... I can install any OS, repair and make it work, but sitting and typing code is more boring than watching flies mate!! So I stick to hardware!! I get the 'thrill' from coming up with cures for problems, creative and USEFUL mods (this DOES NOT include neon lights and corny batman windows in my cases)...
Before the VP6 was around, Abit's poster child was the BP6, dual celeron board... Being one of the pioneers to run dual Coppermines in my BP6 was quite a thrill... Then came the VP6, and the dreaded crap cap problem... Thus was born PROJECT:VP6, which is over a year old... It can be viewed at www.kabalsrealm.com/systems/projects/vp6/. That single article ultimately led to badcaps.net and this forum... I was shocked at the publicity it drew...
A little inside info?!?
Well, age?! I'll say late 20's and that's close enough... I enjoy dealing with the computers, all of this is just a hobby these days, so if it did flop, it's no loss... I'm also a car nut... (300ZX!!!)... I also enjoy flying immencely, although, no I don't own an airplane... YET!!! Maybe if I sell off all this computer junk, I could afford one... HEH I own 3 domain names, and host sites for a few friends on this array... Of course they pay me nothing... HMMM Ohh well... Money isn't all... That's about all I think needs to be revealed... If there's something you really need to know about me, ask... The answer all depends on the question you asked...
Anyhow,
Peta, and everyone else that has joined, Welcome to the forums!! Bring some friends with ya!! :roll:Comment

Hello, I came across this forum because of a faulty TV. Interestingly, I had exactly the same sequence of errors as another user had already described with this model (a Samsung device).
Although I am not a trained electronics technician, I am still interested in repairing things, as long as this is still reasonably economical. So I'm curious to see if you can help me with this 😊Comment
