Miss you Sorin you post less frequently these days I hope the matter has nothing to do with the channel revenue!

[@manyord7089]

Money money money

[@89Ssik]

You can watch Learn Electronic repair too great content

[@kenkentam3730]

Been watching mr.sorin channel for 3years and im so happy to see mr.sorin now have a sponsorship congrats you the best calibrated fuse technician .

[@pasaloofficial1923]

love it everytime you say "we have picture!!!"

[@CaribbeanParadise-cn3sy]

What a lovely fix.. Coil with 1 ohm some may have given up.. Thermal Cam was a great help in this instance.. Good job as always.

[@nadussee]

What a lucky customer.

[@tim0steele]

Looks like the customer may have shorted something to that capacitor while the laptop was on, causing the burn on the PCB.

[@JordynBaby63]

I’m dying 😂😂😂. I love it when you call components “Little Pricks” 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@imcroni7346]

Good to see you again Sorin!!! And with a great fix as always!!!

[@teslasapple]

Good job you always check, I bet most would have written the PCH off no questions 👍

[@Matthew_T24]

Finally new video again🔥🔥

[@transformateur9969]

I liked and subscribed! Thank you very much Sorin!! 👍

[@rostomzerrougui]

Hey sorin. Quick tip. Its called ACER PRE-DA-TOR ❤❤❤

[@EsamHandrex]

I am still a student studying in this field, and I have learned a lot from here and there, especially from this wonderful professor, many things. Here I want to know how to operate the laptop through the power supply. I have tried a lot and it did not work!! I hope someone will answer me. Regards

[@user-ny4rd7il6f]

Thank-you for inspiration...I learn with every lesson

[@bzfarbodjz]

sweet little sorin is happy now

[@mrebrahimiv]

That poor little second cap

[@Dohcom1]

A1, Thanks Sorin, Am actually working on same board, LOL*************

[@chrisfeaka4250]

Nice 👍. Always enjoy watching your vids!

[@SamiTM]

Ahhhhh ce frumos. Aveam nevoie de un video de la tine. Sunt student la tehnică dentară, care lucrează ca instalator dar sunt pasionat de electronică. Român multi-tasking

[@fellpower]

It so fun, if Sorin might have found the problem - and its dead - but after checking it right, he see, thats not true. its fixable ;)

[@jurgenkruger3932]

An ESD discharge likely can kill the PCH and/or the SSD.

[@i-fixsystemsnashik3828]

Video after long days

[@anshulchouksey9987]

It' s 1.05v pch power supply

[@CaribbeanParadise-cn3sy]

Im still learning but my understanding is PCH is 1.05 and I cringed when he put 1.4 through..

[@rfr653]

Good job mate 👏

[@EByte64]

Hi, Sorin. Most of us noticed you are posting less and less. I hope everything is alright and that you are well? May you have a good day.

[@ralphj4012]

Very good. Personally, I would have fitted a new cap as it would probably have been the higher value one. I'm sure Arnie would have been less concerned with the alien pronounced your way, ho, ho. Pronounce with a double d for added menace.

[@CaribbeanParadise-cn3sy]

Thats an interesting debate, where would he connect the ' right hand side ' but as Sorin says. No capacitor, no blown capacitor...lol

[@ralphj4012]

@@CaribbeanParadise-cn3sy Only pointed out because the other small cap is probably for high frequency noise, whereas the larger cap is probably for spikes, surges etc and may have prevented the chipset blowing when whatever happened happened. Yes, an issue of where to connect it, but easily within Sorin's skillset.

[@crypcase150]

welcome back

[@Hal-Gas]

great educational videos as usual. (And I thought it was the microscope)

[@JehovahsaysNetworth]

Sometimes if you don’t recalibrate the total amount of electricity the new hardware does or doesn’t need the thermodynamics will burn the motherboard

[@clivecottam1509]

Just subscribed to your us eBay

[@michaelmeux4137]

Was wondering why on certain chips you cant just add solder to the board and chip to resolder vs reballing just the chip. Haven't gotten any channel to respond on this question yet. Thanks for the video brother

[@laboratorioassembler]

Pcbway Chinese pcb for anyone , pcbway yey!

[@mihaioleniuc1642]

Very Nice! 😎😎😎

[@SidneyCritic]

PCH is probably 1.05V like my 4th gen Intel MB from 2007 - lol -.

[@CaribbeanParadise-cn3sy]

Im still learning but my understanding is PCH is 1.05 and I cringed when he put 1.4 through..

[@CinematicTouchProductions]

What is the name of the electronic screwdriver you use that torques when you turn it name and model please?

[@PaxAlotin-j6r]

*There's a trend with manufacturers* ----- to incapacitate or make things fail ------ *if their parts or authorized repairers - aren't used* Not saying that it is the case here - but such _'closed shop behavior'_ is being seen with some manufacturers - like Apple & Microsoft

[@fabianballarin5511]

Hi Sorin, is it possible that the customer tried to install a M2 drive to substitute the SATA one, without powering off the notebook touching the track (that little flamed track), burning the first capacitor and the chip?

[@blackdotkiller1]

👍

[@lucataszarek8782]

Hello🤝lucky customer 👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏👋👋👋👋👋

[@professoringles985]

Niceeee!

[@balakishore8]

How much charge to customer.

[@rafuri_1]

[@lucianofz788]

[@hoiheyhoi5343]

[@coolirc]

[@RoadRunner-FE]

[@user-zf8ki1cx2w]

The reason why unqualified persons should never attempt upgrading a pc/laptop without a thorough understanding of electrical principles and protocols.

М да как можно чинить ноутбук с включеной АКБ ?я бы вам свою технику точно бы не доверил .и купите себе флюса.то что ноутбук включился это не надолго прогар дальше прогорит .

[@KentRoads]

[@Key-Premise]

I swear some brands have the worst designs ever. The power doesn't even know where it's going, blowing up everything in the way. - Don't even get me started on the circus act of Apple.

[@kanchour16]

I sent you 3 messages on your website to fix my laptop but no answer……..??????

[@maikelpeeters7328]

why the hell does somebody wants to swap a hdd?! in a gaming laptop?! buy a 1 or 2 tb nvme drive way faster than those old drives
