Model: HP pavilion 15 ab584tx
Issue: Thermal shutdown (Boot screen Error Code:90D)

I did the initial cleaning and repasting, but it would still shut down. I managed to narrow down the problem to the IC APW8858 overheating. I had the IC replaced, but within a few hours, the new IC was short. The local technician I gave it to says it may be an inherent CPU/GPU issue and may need a motherboard replacement. I want to make sure that if this board can be resurrected or it is gone beyond repair.

I'd appreciate any help or guidance on this issue. Thank you very much!

Hey there!

I have an HP 15 ab584tx. It was working totally fine until last week. Now, it doesn't turn on for more than a couple of minutes, sometimes less than a minute. It turns on and then, immediately turns off fully. All components turn off, even the power input port light goes off for a second, before coming back on. Sometimes it even makes it as far as the windows desktop screen and works fine for a minute or two, before randomly turning off again. It also sometimes gives me an overheating warning on boot(but doesn't really overheat, more info below).

Here's...
