    Hey everyone,
    Figured I'd jump in and introduce myself. I go by Lostcaphat here.


    I've loved repairing electronics ever since I can remember; anything broken around the house usually ended up on my desk (or the floor) in pieces while I tried to figure out how it worked. That habit never really left; these days I'm still diving into boards, trying to bring dead tech back to life.

    Got properly into repairs after frying a motherboard in the most spectacular way possible... figured if I'm going to break stuff, might as well learn how to fix it too. 😅

    I'm also big into RC cars always loved tuning, breaking, and fixing little machines that go way too fast for their own good. Someday I'll have more running than broken, maybe.

    Mostly learning as I go, sometimes the hard way. Tools are nothing fancy: a solid soldering iron, a cheap hot air station, and a bunch of parts bins that somehow never have the exact part I need.

    Not much else, just happy to be somewhere people still appreciate keeping old gear alive instead of tossing it out. Looking forward to swapping stories, picking up some better habits, and probably posting a few "what did I just do?" moments along the way.

    Nice to be here,
    Lostcaphat

            Hi everyone!!

            I am from Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais state - Brazil, and I have been working with computer maintenance for 14 years, repairing desktop PCs and notebooks while working from home.

                          Hello
                          I'm Korean, but I can't write it in Korean, so I'm going to write it with a translator.
                          Because I can't speak English.
                          I came here looking for a graphic card circuit diagram.
                          Now I'm learning because DIY is my goal
                          I look forward to your kind cooperation.​

                                    HELLO,

                                    I'm new here! I'm from Vietnam
                                    I have knowledge about computer software and a little bit about hardware..

                                    I always like new technology to develop and learn myself.
                                    That's why I think I really want to experience it on the available devices around me

                                    Hopefully I can expand this field I'm studying

                                    Thanks 😘​

                                        Just like really big electronicsm and computers fan.

                                        Finaly learned hot to build amplifier myself , took about 8 months learning and still learning

                                        Hmm doing lot of reverse engineering there is always something what can be better or adjust for yourself betterly.

                                        Now started to learn and discover how everything work and so on Monitor Firmware ,Edid , Mcu and so on

                                        Havent done like lot of programming but step by step learning.

                                        Working as roof roof builder.

                                          My name is Colin. I worked as a network technician for 20 years I have retired now but have developed an interest in electronic repair as a hobby
                                          I have developed a keen interest in repairing ATX power supply units. Many of my previous work colleagues send me faulty PSUs for repair
                                          In the last year i have repaired 32 PSUs out of 48
                                          I came across the BADCAPS.NET site and though it could be a good source of technical information

                                          Great to be a member
