@@SimplyTheSloth Most of the time these refurbished laptops go for too high of a price, but any lower will not return their profit. I think it's good if it's a DiY situation tho. Getting your hands on one of these old hardwares and fixing it yourself is definitely better than buying a chromebook.
Wow, never thought i will see combination of laptop motherboard, wood, fake "concrete" and paper binder. I Don´t know if i like it... because i absolutely love it. You basically turned trash into art, art with real function which is absolutely amazing.
When i saw the clear plexiglass and the LED lights, my first thought was that you were going to create some sort of internal glow panel to back the motherboard. Would love you see you do something like that in the future.. Still, what you ended up making definitely looks very cool and stylish, and I like it a lot. Very nicely done.
What I love most is you took something destined for the landfill and gave it a second life, I'll use this as inspiration of turning my broken work laptop into something my kid might be able to use for a while.
Oh my, after my studies, I just opened youtube and started to watch your older videos and I found this one!! Just surprising. Here in India we have one festival tomorrow! Man, you never want anything to bo wasted. Keep it up. But also last year in nov 2020 you repaired an msi laptop.
Did you try reseating the CPU? Or switching around the ram? Or modifying clamp pressure on the cooling / checking the pins on the motherboard? There may have been contact problems that caused one of the ram sticks not being picked up...
@@KableTdi sometimes when a cpu "mount" goes wrong, or is installed improperly (such as the tension on the screws and pattern used to tighten) the cpu wont make proper contact with the pins of the motherboard. This is a much bigger problem in LGA style chips such as intels desktop mounting or AMD's threadripper, the overall size of the chip also comes into play here making it harder to get a proper mount. Tiny differences in the flatness of the heat spreader and the cooler you are using also play into this.
@@crisnmaryfam7344 you're the only person so far that's actually been of help and you didn't even know I've been getting no post issues I'm gonna try to reseat the CPU and try to tension it right thanks for the help
Last year, I cleaned out an office aswell. Got 5 mini PC's (1 liter), 4 SFF PC's and 2 full towers, a decent mid-range HP laptop, 9 tablets, as well as spare parts like RAM and drives. It can really be lucrative if you know where to look!
Holy crap: you are a artist! A lot of junk videos out there but yours are unique and amazing: simple, cheap, functional, and with a excellent design! Earned my subscription! Congratulations!
omg see that laptop is the same type like my msi ms-16gc crazy how close the modal looks same lucky we have you Andrew to show anything can be given new life if you want it to be just like an old heart that has been damaged and burned it can be refreshed into new life with some patience and hard work Once again it's a pleasure watching your videos keep it up *Andrew*
Have a Toshiba Laptop , spec Core i7 with 8 GB Ram but screen case broken . When i watched how you put in a case , it inspired me to build one . Thanks for sharing. :)
I have made a Wifi modem pc, i took apart a broken laptop and build the motherboard and other components (wifi and bluetooth, ssd and speakers) into an old plastic wifi case, it has a low power celeron inside which is passively cooled, so its dead silent! The wifi modem has small holes in both sides and its sits vertically, so sound and warm air can pass through, it gets around 47 degrees celcius in there, which is quite cool for a pc. I mounted a LED in place where the old wifi modem led whas. It looks so nice!
Andrew you are really a good person. You doing things while others are just talking. You care about recycling, avoiding landfills. I think everyone in this community think that way. Hats off to you brother. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
I was searching for a video like a few weeks back Turning a Gaming laptop into a PC but I didn't find any good video out of which most of them were not gaming laptops. This was a great video Andrew! MY first time here and I appreciate the quality content subbed!
Not a bad transformation, I must say :) Only thing I'd have done differently was installed mSATA SSD (there was a slot for mSATA SSD) and then traditional disk for data. Might have also added an optical drive for completeness.
Wow, very nice idea, job and video. In my opinion it looks better without the plant and the light but those are different opinions. Next broken laptop I find will make something similar. Thanks for the inspiration.
I searched your name 2 days ago and finally found one video of yours I watched earlier. How lucky I am :D -You forget to put keyboard panel paint part. -That ssd doesn't stay still. When fan works it may go off. -That metal panel is not efficient because of heating also hard to take of if you want to change something. -Also where is your Isopropyl Alcohol man?
Very impressive build 🥰👍🥳! It’s amazing to see what a few simple household items can make for a pc mod 🤯🤯☺️. Another great Andrew effort! Job well done! It’s great to see alternative pc designs that can be created thinking outside the box. Smashed it again Andrew! Looking forward to seeing your episode already 😆
I love the way you bring these old computers back to life. You are an artist. I enjoy watching your videos, and I love this transformation. Greetings from Spain.
When laptops die and go to heaven, they meet Andrew.

Bringing life to tech that would otherwise have been e-waste is awesome! Excellent videos.
Thank you Andrew for your videos! Your voice, music and video is so relaxing for me )

Man, you never want anything to bo wasted. Keep it up. But also last year in nov 2020 you repaired an msi laptop.
Did a similar thing a few months ago that I have a video on. Great to see someone else having the same idea of saving an old, broken laptop!
feels like watching a diyperks video. great work done as always.

how do u reset a cpu?
@@KableTdi he mean Re-Seating/ (not resetting) remove and put back again just in case the pin not connected properly.

This Laptop is out of this World. Well done Andrew
This is creativity man. I'm impressed 👍
love the videos from this channel, no love on the choice of music though.
This channel is such an underrated gem
I love this. the nature touch was the best!

If you aren't very crafty, you could just use it with the bottom half. It's a very interesting way to use a computer

Just wow..... very creative
Respect brother your builds are great example of 3R.
Reduce, Reuse and Recycle
Andrew is a very creative person to make people happy😊
Andrew you are really a good person. You doing things while others are just talking. You care about recycling, avoiding landfills. I think everyone in this community think that way. Hats off to you brother. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
The sound test broke my eardrums. LOL Neat mod buddy!
not bad at all
great assembly man
What a great way to reuse equipment. Very talented and skilled. That is fantastic.
In Every video of laptop restoration he always said, it is good for daily basic tasks
the lights and leaves were the special touch!
A true master-piece !!!
Seing a T H X sticker on that laptop looks cursed
I wish I could do this instead of my 9-5. I love tinkering and building things like this
Why not begin as a hobby? It may yet lead you there
@@elfedorausado Not enought time
Looks killer absolutely killer!!!!!!
This is my favourite of your videos. It's so unique and I'm going to do this to my 5 year old laptop if the monitor ever dies.
Planing to rebuild my old p4 laptop into a semi desktop pc. Hope to learn from this video :-)
LOVE THE WORK, VERY CREATIVE. !
Excellent build - and great narration 👍!
Great computer modding bro
let's add some plant, he said!
Fantastic job andrew
Great work Andrew!

Great video, nice transformation
Loved it ❤️❤️❤️❤️ from your videos I have repaired my Sony vaio laptop 😍😍😍😍
Man, I wish I had your level of creativity.
You have the best background song I've heard on TH-cam
I love the idea of using the mesh try. Very out of the box idea.
It was impressive, congratulations!
Great Video Andrew greetings from Poland
I love your channel. I have a old laptop here, I never use it all.
I love weird computer builds. Thanks for the video.
The first pc where the monitor screen is more expensive rather then than CPU...btw, GOOD JOB 😁
Well done my friend!!!! A beautiful diversification 😘😘
Not a bad transformation, I must say :)
Only thing I'd have done differently was installed mSATA SSD (there was a slot for mSATA SSD) and then traditional disk for data.
Might have also added an optical drive for completeness.
More laptop transformation video, please.
it looks suprisingly nice
i like it
Wow beautifully done.
Excellent! Really original for me
The artificial leaves is the major performance upgrade
Andrew gives second Life to the machines 👍🏻
Beautiful brother good luck 🖤☘️
I want to say some words about this video... It was good! Good work Andrew!
Excellent work as always.
Great modification and nice design!!!
You have some awesome skills and a lot of imagination, my friend. Well done, you are at a higher level than anyone I have seen on youtube.
I've got the same model of processor!! Excellent choice!
as expected great workmanship and worthwhile content
Your videos are great inspiration for upcycling tech.
Wow, very nice idea, job and video. In my opinion it looks better without the plant and the light but those are different opinions. Next broken laptop I find will make something similar. Thanks for the inspiration.

Try to switch the two RAM sticks. Sometimes this solves that one stick not working.
I've tried that :/ I check in depth and the slot is damaged :/
