Well, I think this is the first time I'm sharing something here, I hope it will help anyone that, like me, is trying to repair one of those damm ASUS motherboards filled with iRog chips. I've written a manual following my experience and findings on fixing a dead ASUS Rampage IV Extreme (R4E).
The ZIP file contains the guide and (almost) all the software I've used in the project. But I think it's worthy because it took me a lot of time to find out a cheap way to work with these chips from Explore with a bare CH341A programmer, and the original EP Console program is really hard to find....

by AlexVGHi,
I have Microwave BOSCH CFA634
It runs, but after 10 -15 seconds stops working.
Sometimes it shows error E1006.
I can't find this error explication.
Some people say it's communications error between main and display module.
Probably somebody has an experience with this issue?
Can you help me please?
Thank you an advance....05-17-2024, 05:17 PM -
by code9523Hi everybody I need some help. I have two sticks of ddr5 and one of them spd got corrupted. The stick of ram only works if installed as second will never boot alone. By checking it by thaiphoon burner it says CRC error detected but motherboard's spd reader can reead it's info. I tried to reflash spd from second working stick by using OC Tool but it says: some blocks are write protected and will not flash it.
Please help me find a tool to flash the spd back to it.
Thanks!-

by ProttHello,
I am getting a bit desperate with this one and would appreciate any help.
I came across a NUC 7i7 that initially had a short on the USB header "rail" (one of the decoupling capacitors). But, besides that, it displays a weird behaviour - if I don't attach anything to the m.2 slot it works great (boots into windows, etc.). However once I plug in an m.2 drive the computer won't display anything on the screen.
There's no picture, but the computer is still working (I can turn on/off numlock, etc.). This behaviour remains the same even if I disable...-

by copeHi everyone,
I have been working on a no power issue with my personal ASUS gaming laptop. It went dead a few months ago.
Some history:
Since then, I've found a blown mosfet on the GPU line which I replaced. It started up without a battery, then when I added the battery back it wouldn't start up again.
As a result, there were some blown components around the BQ chip. (The BQ chip itself - BQ24780S, the low side battery mosfet (shorted), and a resistor -> all replaced)
Now, with a new battery the system will start up and run off...05-13-2024, 09:40 AM -
by Arc717I am trying to downgrade my bios on my Alienware so I can undervolt & overclock my CPU, and overclock my ram. I need to get to bios 1.2.2 for this. Dell doesn't allow downgrades, and their bios file is an exe compiled in c++, so I can't decompile it easily. I am wondering if I can flash the bios manually using a usb flasher. I would like to know if this is possible, and if so, where the bios chip would be. I know flashers are pretty cheap and the bios chip is 8-pin. There are two of these chips only when I open the back panel of the laptop. I'm not sure if there are any on the other side of...05-17-2024, 03:34 PM
