  • Re: Industrial PC display

    Well the cable is glued on the connector... I should try to remove it but I am afraid it will break.

    I have no a spare LVDS cable...

    Anyway if it is the LVDS cable... why the VGA is yellow? Even with the LVDS cable removed the external display is yellow.
    That's why I think there is something wrong with graphic chip.

    I have to ask my friend if I can try to remove the cable even it it is risky due to glue.

    Thanks for your answers.

  • Industrial PC display

    I have this industrial PC with display problem: image of the internal display connected by LVDS connector is blurry.

    I connected an external monitor using VGA connector: image is clear but tends to yellow.

    I tried to use a PCI videocard but I failed to install driver, I wanted to see if using an external graphic chip the image were normal.

    I think the graphic chip is damaged so it is not possible to solve the problem.

    What do you think?

  • Re: Fake Panasonic cap?

    Well, I have informed my friend that asked me to replace capacitors, but I don't think he will proceed to inform the UPS maker.

    The UPS has worked fine for 8 years and was still working when my friend saw the bulged capacitor.
    He asked me to replace capacitors because usually the company doesn't do this kind of service... they prefer to sell a new board and it costs some hundred euro.

    [B]PeteS in CA[/B] probably you work for a serious and professional company, this is not the same with this UPS maker.

    Samwha website is absurd... you can find aluminum cap not under "Samwha capacitor" but under "Samwha Electric".

    The web catalog is damn slow... 5---10 minutes to load a page

    Here one link [URL="http://www.samwha.co.kr/SW_catalogue/access/ecatalog_pt.asp?callmode=&catimage=&Dir=21&um=pt&cpage=18"]http://www.samwha.co.kr/SW_catalogue/access/ecatalog_pt.asp?callmode=&catimage=&Dir=21&um=pt&cpage=18[/URL]

    Thanks to all for confirm my suspect.

    I really don't understand why a well known company use fake components... and I'm not speaking of consumer appliances but industrial/professional products.

    Fake Panasonic cap?

    Few days ago I replaced 5 capacitors on an industrial board.

    One was completely bulged.

    They were Panasonic FK type... but I suspect they were fake because the vent was not the classical T.

    I post here some photos to have your opinion.

    I was surprise because they were mounted on an UPS of a well known Italian company... and I can't believe they buy fake components.

  • Re: Question about Notebook*Lenovo*IdeaPad*310*15ABR

    Thanks for you answers and link, as far as I understand it is not so important for me.

    By the way, after posting here I serched with google and I found a thread on Lenovo forum, there is a guy with same notebook asking the same question.

    What I don't understand is why Lenovo reccomend to use "dual channel capable" RAM if they can't work in dual channel (see attachment).

    Have a nice day

  • Question about Notebook*Lenovo*IdeaPad*310*15ABR

    I have bought this notebook because my old one Acer 5100 with AMD Turion 64 was too slow.
    I have choosen this one because I think it is enough for what I do and moreover was sold with 10% discount.

    Main features:

    WIN10 Home 64Bit
    CPU AMD A10-9600P
    RAM On-board + SO-DIMM (4GB On-Board) 12GB 2133MHz
    Display 15.6" 1366 x 768 pixels LED 16:9
    Graphic card AMD Radeon R5 M430 2GB GDDR3
    HDD 1000GB 5400RPM SATAIII

    After some days I was curious and I checked it with CPU-Z and with a big surprise it shows me RAM...

  • Re: How much do you hate your smartphone?

    I have Huawei G620S... I have broken the touch...then the display... then touchscreen and display together.

    I have repaired it 3 times and now it is my spare smartphone because I bought Huawei P8 Lite.

    Before I had a Samsung Advance... it was slow and had problem with GPS signal.

    What I like very much with Huawei is that they have good antenna, I can phone or use them even when I'm in my cellar while with Samsung I lost signal before reaching cellar.

    Both G620S and P8 Lite works well, the...

    Thanks vinceroger69, probably is something like that, my son plays a lot with PC and probably has messed up with something in setting. Now he is sleeping and I can't switch on PC, next days I will check and let you know.

    I searched but using only backslash brought me only useless pages... I didn't thought to use also Yen ;-)

    COMMAND Prompt Win7

    Today I was checking my son's PC and opening CMD window I saw that the backslash character is wrong, instead of

    C:\WINDOWS\system32>

    it is

    C:¥WINDOWS¥system32>

    As far as I saw it seems to work properly but I'd like to bring it back to classic backslash symbol.

    My son said he didn't changed anything... and I don't know where to look.
    Google didn't bring me any useful info but maybe I'm not able to serch the right word.

  • Re: Acer ASPIRE 5538 display problem

    Absolutely no. I have removed everything before to replace the display.

    I wanted to check the cable as first step, and to do it I had to disassemble completely the notebook because the LVDS connector is on the bottom side and to reach it you have to remove keyboard and the top cover.
    I have connected the battery only to check the image, I remove always the battery before doing something or using screwdrivers... I don't want to damage what is good.

    I think if it is present a fuse for the display it should be...

  • Re: Acer ASPIRE 5538 display problem

    Hi trebo I've not closed the display, it is still open.
    I already tried to move the cable near the mobo and near the display connector but nothing happened.

    I have also disconnected the cable from mobo and I cleaned the connector with a contact cleaner spray.

    Thanks

  • Acer ASPIRE 5538 display problem

    I'm trying to repair this notebook: my friend was working and suddenly the image became corrupted with colored horizontal stripes.

    He switched it off and restarted it but the screen was white with the left side darker than the right side.

    I replaced the display, the original one was LG LP156WH3 but the vendor sent me a Samsung LTN156AT35 writing it was the correct replacement.
    As far as I found with Google the LG and Samsung display have the same features.

    Now turning on the notebook the screen is completely black but the led are on.
    If...

  • Re: I need a check on gaming system

    On Tuesday I received all components and I built the PC.

    I had few problem because I didn't see some instruction: at first the PC didn't start because the power button was disconnected, since the front case can be removed it is possible to disconnect the cable... I discovered it after 30 minutes....

    At the end the system is up and runninge very very well.

    Here some picture.

  • Re: PC cleanner for free?

    On Xp I have used and I use sometimes WiseDiskCleaner to remove unnecessary stuff and temp files.

    For the registry I use WiseRegCleaner, you find them here

    [url]http://www.wisecleaner.com/[/url]

    I had not a single problem with them but while with disk cleaner you see the free space at the end of the process, with the registry cleaner it is difficult for me to say if it really does something really useful, at least I can say it does no damages anything.

    Unfortunately as almost all software today they have...

  • Re: I need a check on gaming system

    Hi Mad
    I have already ordered the Xeon and GT 760 and the other items.

    It is a little complicated to explain everything, to make it short my son asked to his friend which has already a game system close to this one.
    My son at the moment plays on-line and has no a clear idea about future games, but as I promised him to build a system together if he finished the secondary school well, now I have to keep my promise since he got the maximum score.
    I have to add that last Christmas I didn't gave him a present, that's...

  • Re: I need a check on gaming system

    Hi Compgeke, thank for your suggestion.

    I searched on internet and I found some discussion about using i5-4670K vs Xeon E3 1230 V3 but not comparison with i5-4690k.

    For what I understood with i5 you can overclock but I don't know if it will be necessary for what my son will do with the PC.

    Reading the CPU specs I saw it supports DDR3-1600 so maybe I should search a different type respect to my son's list.

    About the case and HD you are right but my son wants a new case and the HD he is...
