I'm now disabling ad block while I watch youtube. The ads are not as annoying as I thought they would be to be honest. Great content Sorin, thank you.
I've got a full 1 hour ad at the end of video ! ,LOL
@@italianofx2104 lol, ad block would be back on straight away if that was a thing.
i really enjoy the longer videos so much to learn from just a simple episode.
Sorin, you left me in stress then I noticed 5 min video ahead and you know A SATISFIED VIEWER.
I think I've noticed a common issue. The laptops become irreparable as soon as you say its a nice laptop! 😂 I have learned so much watching your videos, and this was no exception. As a tech, learning when to stop and admit defeat is probably the hardest thing! We all want to fix everything that we open up, but this video taught me not to go down rabbit holes!
This guy is a teacher, I have learnmed many tricks from him , even at those things you may call useless and trivial, they help in many cases when you have limited reosurces. People in Africa and many other nations has not always wher to buy parts eaasily and we try to repair every thing even those the wolrd may call irreparable. Example and car with a blown engine block is useless, but I can tell you that in Nigeria ther are welders that can weld it and it will stil be ok andd perfect , despite the fact that car producers will tell you that it is impossible.
That is definitely one of the biggest things I struggle with. Knowing when the device is simply beyond repair and knowing when it is my ignorance that prevents me from knowing "what button to press". Learning every day but ignorance drives me crazy lol. Thankful for great channels like this :)
1:30:30 so true :) Once a Predator returned three times for repair by three different owners. The first one already knew that the PCH and CPU were defective...
Sorin, I learned more from this failed repairs than from all successful ones. You're the best! Thank you.
I really like this episode. You're a legend, Sorin! Keep up the good work!
Great video and good call skipping the repair of those Furnace Ignition modules - best to let someone with lots of insurance take the blame for burning someone's house down when anything ever goes wrong with or around the furnace in future.
excellent series of videos. I've learnt a lot from these. thank you Sorin.
Unfortunately, I do not have a deeper understanding of electronics, but it is super interesting to see how you analyze and fix these electronic problems. Thank you for these great videos 👍
Nice selection Sorin! These are certainly also interesting. Thanks!
Great video. Can you make a video explaining different things to avoid in order not to destroy the laptop? Such as "disconect the battery before playing with display connector". It will be very helpful.
I just finished watching all of that. You obviously fix a lot more laptops than me. I do replace MBs in these cases if it's economical but I do keep the dead ones for inspection. I.E. work out what is wrong from the working one. Sometimes it's worth it, you learn and also have a working MB to sell. Not CPU or PCH though. I also bought a thermal camera recently just to save time. Thanks for your videos, I'm not alone. 😀
Great video Sorin! Learned a bit more again there, Thanks!
Great content as always!
We cant fix everything, but the customer may be happy if you swap the entire motherboard for them :3
Just discovered your channel and I love your teaching style. Thank you for what you do, new sub here.
Super Job! Very good video! The thermal camera is big help in good hands. I must go to buy one. :)
The Thinkpad that features at 1hr 56m is the one I sent into Sorin. Although he told me the reason for the fault, is was interesting to see it in the video.
When I got the laptop back, I searched ebay in the hope of finding a replacement motherboard. Got lucky and found a used one on sale for £110 and bought it. When it arrived, to my dismay, the corner of the motherboard where the charger plugs in, had got broken off in transit, despite large amounts of bubble wrap. OK, I got my money back, but I would have liked an unbroken motherboard. 😢
I have learned more from fails than from repairs :) Great video !
It's an addiction to see sorin. How the 2 hours I spent I don't know.just watching and watching.please upload failed compilation also
It's so good to see that not everything is fixable even with your knowledge and experience. I mean it's not good to see, but you know how I mean 😅 Now it's not so demoralising already when I fail to fix something 😀
you are the best Sorin 😊
Great video,really enjoyed it.
Really nice collection.
Best Sorin repair binge, episode 'dead CPUs' 😂
Thank you for the great evening.
I want to know about the hinge repair. Did it work? Yes I know this is failed to repair video but you were positive it could be fixed....argh....glad to see there are ones you cannot fix.
nobody gonna talk about that cool little pen drill he using. I need that asap.
once I saw it, I lost all interest in the video. I must find it!
Sijuwi kingereza vizuri ila nafatilia kazi zako kila siku naipenda sana kaka barikiwa sana huko juu kwa ujuzi wako huko technicien Original kwa kweli nakupenda sana rafiki mwema wewe good job
Watching this is beneficial fun beautiful to watch and to make beginners careful THANK YOU SIR
1:16:46 - So, what was the fail on this hinge repair? I would like to have seen the working repair. Maybe you included this in a list of fails because you wanted to emphasize discouraging the cleaning of liquid from board? Also, what was the material you used here?
It was just a boring video i never published, that's the only reason i include it here
Sorin I just learned earlier today from another channel, solder balls on CPU or GPU can cause appearance of short. The video I watched he had a small unit heater you put CPU/GPU on top of, upside down with pins up, and you cook the chip until you see solder reform to clean position, reinstall and it usually works. I’m assuming either chip got to hot and solder reformed or old solder brittle
The first laptop, the Predator is the same laptop I have and it's crazy good. I bought last gen hardware and it was pretty cheap all things considered, under GB£1000, and comes with an i9-12th gen and a 3070. If you find a cheap one pick it up but watch for the overheating if you're house is more than 20C. I had to liquid metal mine to drop 10-15C or the i9 throttles because of temps.
One time I tried to drill similar crater hole between layers and never again, if the laptop dies then it dies 😅. God Bless you and your learners. Watching all your videos without addblocker, I think can get more harm from that add blocker as from watching, every software gets some control over your data
Learned lot from this such content. Thanks 🇱🇰
Some dont even put those kind of videos thats why i stopped watching many people on youtube.
Do people understand how FETs regulate voltage? They use PWM to create a duty cycle. For example a 10vpp clock with a 50% duty cycle will produce 5volts on the output side of an inductor tied to a clocking FET. A DMM will see it as 5V on both sides of an inductor, but a scope will read it as clocking on one side, DC on the other
very nice compilation
i noticed from like 2 3 years ago you been using much higher voltage for checking shorts . now every time you go around 1,1v or every time lover and lover to like this 0.8v :) more secure for sure to not see magic smoke! :) good to learn that everyone to not push crazy voltage to when inspecting what is getting hot. Amazing to you uploaded this video to we see also unrepairable machines, ! Respect ! GG
I absolutely LOVE my Brave browser for the built in Ad Blocker that I dont have to tinker with
😂😂😂people are looking to much videos on youtube and think they learnt everything about the faults but not electronics[electronics is with books not videos] these laptops are in that shape[and not reparable] because of these videotubers and i admire your patience to spend so much time trying to repair them even when you know from the beginning its not reparable.We all sometimes do that but less and less because of these videotubers who dont know nothing about electronics and trying to fix something and broke everything until is not reparable
thanx sorin for this long NON REPARABLE ......☺
Hey Sorin. Great Work. How come you didn't show with the thermal camera to see what is dead on the first laptop.
Im really enjoying this video
Please post more failed videos if you can, those are even more informative, it allow next time to see faster if it is worth to continue testing this board.
why do you fixing the board with connected SSD ?
WOW a 2.5h video. Popcorn time! I've even disabled adblocker.
The ripped off battery connector 😁
the jump to your drilling at 1:47:17 made me laugh a bit :D
Just watching you at the Lenovo at 1:25:05 Sorin, Did they only put thermal paste on the one larger i.c. block of CPU? That looks strange, i thought the CPU should have thermal paste all around the main i.c. blocks, i mean the ceramic protection blocks,
Why was that HP with the broken hinge and jammed fan in this series of videos?
I had an acer predator 300 with an RTX 3060 which had a shorted mosfet on the gpu but replacing the mosfet fixed the issue, laptop now works great with the gpu. Might be worth checking. It wasn't the ram power supply in my case
¡Gracias!
Maybe you missed the problem with the Lenovo laptop around @1:40:20. I had exactly the same 'flashing' problem on a Lenovo laptop, and the issue was a shorted capacitor on the other side of the board... I removed it and the laptop worked fine after that... That capacitor flashed a bit brighter then all the other flashing chips...
can you please Sorin make a video for an old board to show us under the thermal camera what the cpu or the chipset should look like when the power supplies have shorted high or low side mosfets?
Thank you so much
Hi Sorin! 1:33:30 LOL I love your videos! Keep it up!
Thanks, will do!
Hey wanted to ask a qyuck question.. do you esd straps??? Because apparently you can kill the laptops easily without then and i dont see you using that
2.38 hrs of entertainment haha
It could have been a bent LGA Socket pin as well. I would have inspected the socket as well to rule it out. The CPU is probably to blame still but that would have been something I would have checked.
el error mas grande de las notebooks modernas entre otras es el CPU soldado a la pcb ...tanto la obsolecencia programada como la viveza de las grandes empresas de hacer equipos en un 80 porcientos descartables y costosos ...es el negocio de ellos y a su vez el curro ...perjudicando a los buenos técnicos como usted el no poder brindar una solución saludos atentamente gran conocimiento tiene y la forma de dar soluciones y diagnostico
amazing video
My bet on the thing thats drawing the 130mah when the device was without battery powered off and plugged in - USB standby. Or the laptop's motherboard battery getting charged.
Hi, Sorin. I need help. How can i recognize chip marks, when the chip is totally burned? I couldn't find that cind of schematics, also i don't have a donor board. It is for Lenovo x240, mb is RG2SB-5, chip i need is marked as U23 on board.
But what about the blue one? It was working fine except the hinge, right?
I would have like to see if the the hinge repair worked.
nice to see you😀😀
2:14:04 I related how when i have yearly MOT for the car the inspector give hard pokes under the car "I CAN SEE RUST.. ALMOST GETTING THROUGH" with big poke thingy.
Feels always like doctor would notice a cut and take knife out and start poking cut with knife to make deeper cut and saying "Look! we have cut here looks bad".
1:06:10 I think the middle capacitor above the mosfet might be cracked but not that it would matter
Muy buena enseñanza
Drawing 4 amps. You don't need a FLIR camera to find that. Just use your finger. Whatever it is, it will be COOKING
Epic 2 hours 38 mins video ,,,, Just started, Lets go! :)
1:53:06 .. the strange brand gaming pc... there is small burn on the chipset side... this was from the beginning.
"dont say the word dodgy, is forbidden in YT". Yes you are right Sorin 😃☺☺
salut,presupun ca laptopul de la 1:39:50 sa supra incalzit si a fost o coincidenta ca a murit la update ?
This is the only channel I've disabled my AdBlock on. Bizarrely, YT has given-up delivering me Ads, or delaying play of videos due to the blocker.
How can i disable ublock - the best adblocker?
Wow massive burial!!!!
Sorrin no capture again it has been more than 24hours and i am stil waiting can youdo something to correct it .Thank you
The job with cpu dead on lenovo wasn't failed, cpu dead can be replaced so its a win.
30:32 What is this, some dryer control, can you explain why he didn't want to try?
It deals with very high voltages that can kill! He's not on that kind of works, nor tools!
Hey Sorin. You should become an Official Lenovo Reseller. You will always be busy. Hehe!
2:18:30 it looks like there is a bridge on the two pins.
more than 2 hours of videotime? cool !! but first i take a good coffee 🤣🤣
Informative.... Shorted chipset= dead laptop
Lenovo is amazing, using glue for components and stealing screws lol
I'm wondering what you mean by saying Lol, which stands for Laughing out loud. or are you saying Lul, which stands for Love you Lots. So I'm just wondering what you mean? Just curious. Cheers! btw Love your repair videos, I find them quite informative..
I remember "Oh Lord!",then he changed to LOL !
This is the real life :D
Why they put glue on the ram lol?
I think I will also put a BMW block engine in a Fiat Panda 500CC. 😅😆😁
Ihave been watching your videos,they are easy to understand and you should know that you are my teacher.Help me with this, ihave hp pavilion g6 laptop but there is a proble with wifi card Ralink model RT3290 It over heats almost melting the plastic back ineed your help please.Wifi works just fine but the problem is overheating.Thank you.
replace the wifi card.Its very cheap.
Since you all are experienced i want to know what should i not do with my laptop so i dont end up with a dead cpu or potentially unrepairable motherboard issue😢 thankyou
Do not plug in. Do not power up.
🤞😂
subtitle not available :(
Sorin can you add your usb screwdriver to your tool list, please. uk watchers 👊
Done!
This is the power supply of the cpu's "system agent" ( first video )
were can i buy the screw driver you are using . whats the name .
Pls how to reset dell bios password
If he CPU was dead, it would be better to show us if it works well by replacing with other cpu.
❤❤❤❤❤❤
nice
That's a lot of niice laptops
TF he put thermal paste all over the motherboard?
