    Re: Laptop

    After stripping it down to the m/b and not finding anything wrong, I decided to rebuild it and guess what? It bloody works!!!!

    It's been stable for 7 days so far

    Re: Laptop

    Unable to test

    But if the CPU was faulty would I get the same result as I'm getting?

    Re: Laptop

    The caps do look okay I must say. The CPU is original and the thermal gunk, well, I done that whilst taking it apart.

    I did reseat the ram and cpu b4 I took it apart, I even took out the dvd drive and hard drive trying to elimiate the problem that way.

    If the CPU is faulty would I get the same problem? The CPU is a AMD 64 3200 Hammer.

    The laptop turns on, only the fans run and you just get the black screen.

    I have tried connecting it to my monitor but no joy, I have bought a brand new psu and still no joy.

    Re: Laptop

    Thanks for the replys

    The laptop brand is Fujitsu and motherboard is 258KAO. I have taken a photo of the m/b and circled the problem caps.

    The metal ones all fail the continuity test which seems odd, maybe it's not. And it looks like the two yellow caps have failed too.


    I'm doing the continuity test on a multimeter set on 200ohms. I think this is a safe setting, do correct me if I'm wrong.

    Hello all

    This is my first thread so be gentle........lol

    Right, my problem is with my laptop. I suspect bad caps, I have done continuity tests on them and most failed. Is this type of test okay? Basically if the cap is shorting I will get a current pass through.

    The picture is one that I have taken from this forum but I have circled what I need to know, are these are caps? As when I do the continuity test it fails is ment to let current through?
