Then custommers first have to bring him bad mobos

[@MindYourBusiness1970]

Desktop mobos and laptop mobos are the same , the only difference is that desktop are bigger (easier)

[@Grinder-one]

@@MindYourBusiness1970 Actually they're nothing like each other. Majority of laptop problems are charger related, hinge related or liquid damage. Majority of desktop problems are Vcore related, bios related or socket damage. When do you ever see socket repair on a laptop....never because they don't have them. So many faults on laptops are along the 20v rail, but so many on pc's are less than 1.5, again, vcore. So many faults on a laptop can be corrected just by unplugging the battery, when do you see that on a desktop ? My current desktop mobo is one that came to me broken....all that was wrong was that the bios jumper was on backwards...when do you ever see that on a laptop ?

[@6siqueira]

Amazing how you was so certain about what to check and you got everything right, the way you are so assertive sometimes impresses me

[@johanbooysen3508]

Hi Sorin, you are the only one who can explain practical repair electronics and explain why and what electronic components do in a circuit and why they are in a specific place. The way you explain it is amazing! Must thank you for that! ThankYou !

[@Radek__]

tips for others about pc motherboards: -after you fix bend pins, you should test each ram slot if is working fine. (very ofter fixed pins are not perfect and then some of the slots are not working) -when you see thermal paste under processor, then you have to clean the pins in the socket as well by using soft bursh and alcohol. Look what Sorin left at 25:39 left bottom corner)

[@steinbauge4591]

Maybe he can't start fixing everything on a pc like this? Btw this was impossible to miss, maybe he fixed it before returning it.

[@Radek__]

@@steinbauge4591 yeah, I can't get it - why he missed that dirty spot on the pins. Maybe he is affraid to touch pins with brush. But if you spray those pins with alcohol and use soft brush (paintbrush) with gently moves - it will impossible to bent them.

[@francescogreco669]

you forgot another very important thing, don't place the motherboard in the case without the spacers underside

[@steinbauge4591]

@@francescogreco669 Come on, he does not finish reassembling in the video. The PC was shoddily put together, MB poorly secured, Sorin may have added some screws etc. He would not short circuit an MB on video.. Why would he remove spacers?

[@Radek__]

@@francescogreco669 yeah. Sorin is the master in this. He always don't care about metal tape inside the laptop case which is conducive. he always put working motherboard on this. last time I found laptop which has painted plastic case inside laptop on the little silver color. It looks like silver plastic but it is conducive. multimetr is beeping on diode test.

[@Grinder-one]

I had this exact same board which I bought £10 from ebay to see if I could fix it. I can't remember exactly now but it had a short to ground I think on the 3.3. At first I thought it was a mosfet because it was getting red hot but after I removed it, the board was still dead short. I injected 3.3 directly into the board and the chipset got red hot....therefore I concluded the chipset was shorted and I gave up. More desktop motherboard repairs please Sorin :)

[@spiritseer001]

I'm from the Philippines. I will open my own repair shop soon because of Sorin! Wish me luck.

[@MagicMan123ification]

when he said the processor is warm I got so happy you can't believe!

[@DGDan316]

Well done Sorin, customer was very lucky

[@DennisCrouse]

I've watched a few amateurs' build their first PC, and they seem to almost always drop the CPU on the socket when trying to install it. They think it's fine, because at first glance things look ok, but this is how the pins bend. Of course they only bend a tiny bit by that drop, but after the force of the socket clamp-down they fold under like that.

[@christechtime4297]

I have built a lot of computers and only switched to intel recently and I have been dealing with bent pins. There is only one way it can go in and I didn't drop the processor and still somehow I deal with bent pins. I wonder if they stick to bottom of chip. It has been tragic, dealing with no post condition. After cmos reset and reseating e errthing there is generally no clues other than dead mobo. But you should be able to get bios, or so they say, and this is what happened here. Generally you cam rma the board and they will refuse free swap, so you go off of what people tell you and this is what happens. Great video thanks

Ah, a little DIY (damage it yourself) xD

[@DevilbyMoonlight]

i had to repair a bit of a white elephant dvd -ram (not dvd-rom) drive quite a few years ago that had a few missing pads - as it was a sort of fix now as its urgent and worry about it later I replaced the pads successfully with carefully cut pieces of copper tape the type gardeners use to deter slugs - it took the solder well and was able to easily connect the traces to them the drive ran until dvd-ram disks were no longer easily available

[@gabrielm4850]

Well done Sorin I think the customer flash-it and it went wrong. Then he played with the processor, smeared it with thermal compound and tried to clean the pins.

[@abdallahelectronic19]

thank you ,i have a problem with this ic tea 1716 in led tv power supply NO POWER, her problem is that it was exposed to high voltage, and I found the main capacitors swollen, I replaced them, but the IC heats up greatly, but it is fine because I removed it and tried it in another card and it worked fine. Where is the problem? Is it in the components surrounding the ic tea 1716? but which pins of ic responsable for overvoltge or which components must be change smd capacitors and resestors or all them.

Lucky you rescued their carelessness! I’ve dropped a cpu into the pins before it happens, but you don’t just fit the cpu and expect it still to work after!

[@crazecol]

I used to get a credit card carefully run on down the proccer if the pins were bent but that was a long time ago. nowadays the pins are on the motherboard aren't they wonder if that's why they manafactur that way cheaper to replace the board than the chip??

[@glantor]

I had a problem today. I got a Laptop for fixing, no charging, no power, nothing. 19v and 3.3 is present. when i press the power button, 3.3v lon the charger goes to 0 and back to 3.3 as its supposed to be, but nothing happens, no light, no fan spin, nothing. then i checked the super I/0, there was 3.3v in the capacitors around it but i couldn''t find a scematic. still, because the power button works but nothing happens, should i replace the Super I/O? i love your videos, they have taught me a lot

[@Oak690]

Sorin thank you for the great video! Dental pick works well for straightening pins like that. You did awesome fixing them with tweezers! I probably would have bent pins adjacent to the ones I was trying to straighten using those. I bet you are right about the customer - thought bios was corrupt but they bent pins somehow. Wonder what they did to bend the socket pins...

When someone brings you a basket case that they've tried to repair themselves, there is NEVER just one thing wrong with it whether it's a car or a computer.
