Re: Dell E172fpb

I too have had the 'pleasure' of my E172FPb fail on me with the common blinking green led. I also discovered that Q759 and Q760 had shorted and hence went about replacing these transistors. I opted for a couple of BD911's and replaced the duff components, however when put back together the same symptoms were present. I today figured out that the tips of the new componets were touching the metal casing - in essence causing a short. A few strips of tape accross the back of casing and all is well.
