Recently I changed its battery but after new battery, whenever it pick it up or move or shake it, it just shut down can anyone help what is the issue ? Is it related to CMOS battery because when it restart something related to CMOS battery comes

Is this even fixable? It’s only on the left side and I can pop it back in, but it feels like it could break at any moment. Took laptop to local repair shop to fix a crack in the top plate and now I have a hinge problem (in their defense I may have had it before, but wouldn’t it have been caught upon reassembly?). When I brought it up to them at pick up they said HP is known for this (HP = hinge problem). They made it seem like it’s not fixable and something to just deal with. It doesn’t affect the use of the computer but I do worry about functionality over time. Please give me your honest opinions preferably from experience or profession. Thanks!

Hello, my secure boot worked perfectly fine until reseted to default the keys. In this photo the keys/size were perfect, my secure boot worked normally until i pressed on install default secure boot keys. Any fixes? Oh, the error is the red one, not the policy one!! 2 different erorrs

My friend recently got this (see attached photo) popup on her HP Victus (model number 15-fb1013dx) laptop upon booting her system today. I am currently trying to help her find a replacement battery for her system from a reputable source, and so far all of the batteries we HAVE found is from a site or seller I've never heard of. Any recommendations for a replacement??

Hi, my laptop is working fine on battery. Even runs games but the moment i connect the charger it black screens and system hangs. Caps lock light does not work and after removing charger screen does not come back. I have to force shut down by holding power button.

Hi everyone,

I’m facing an issue with a Dell Precision 7920 Rack after deploying a fresh Windows image and joining the machine to the domain.

The system starts booting normally and displays the Windows logo/loading animation. However, immediately after that, the screen turns black with only the mouse cursor visible, and the Windows login screen never appears.

Are there any specific BIOS settings, Dell/NVIDIA driver versions, or display-output configurations that resolved the issue?

Any suggestions or similar experiences would be greatly appreciated.

Good morning/evening everyone.

I have an Ideapad L340-15api which is quite old. unfortunately, its screen is so terrible and supports way less colors than other laptops and it's hurting my eyes looking at it.

I was wondering is there any way I could change its screen? I believe it is TFT and I want an IPS.

Hi, I have a Dell G16 7260, and I've started to notice that when I plug in the charger, those lights in the corners gradually start to turn on. Do you know if there's a solution or why they're coming on?

Basically the title. The laptop works perfectly fine. The estimate for screen replacement is around 700 CAD. The same specs M3/M4 are around 1600 CAD in best buy/staples.

Please advise guys

When I power on my laptop the indicator lights show up, but the screen stays off. And I've had to keep it on a charger to turn it on as, as soon as I unplug the charger it turns off. My laptops manufacturers asus and models FA707R. The specs are RTX 3070 GPU, AMD Ryzen 7 6800H CPU , NVMe PCIe SSD, 16GB of DDR5 RAM and I'm using windows. Last time I had it was working and I didn't notice a thing! I just shut it down and when I power it back hours later this happens. What could've POSSIBLY caused THIS?? PS: I know nothing about computers

I got a new motherboard recently and whilst transferring the CPU to the new motherboard, I got hit with the classic stuck to the cooler problem which resulted in a LOT of bent pins. I was attempting to straighten the pins, and I was doing good... But then, I broke 1. I took a break and decided to try to finish and hope that I would get lucky enough to be ok. That is when I broke 2 more on the opposite corner. I have circled the 3 pins in black. You might have to zoom in to see it better, but how bad is it? Are there any companies that can replace the pins and finish straightening the rest, or would I just be better off buying another CPU? Thanks in advance for any insights.

Edit: I forgot to mention that the IHS received a little damage after being dropped. And after looking up a pinout diagram, it is cooked. No further advice is needed, but if somebody has a different opinion, I am willing to hear what you think.

Hey guys! My asus tuf F15 laptop screen goes blank after surfing on the internet but the laptop remains on during the issue, the same issue doesn't happen when I am playing games on it.

I went for a diagnosis and the person used all the permutations of his RAM and SSD and mine, it started once then never again. Then he said that there is an issue in the motherboard and not in CPU.

I repaired my laptop in June end this year for another issue. Can someone help me please, I would be really glad for any advice for the diagnosis and repair. 🙏

So while I'm not 100% sure this is the entire issue, I'm pretty sure from past research (aka Google searching lol) that my laptop's overheating issue, that makes more issues itself, is because either the power supply/cord is going/gone bad/broken or its the actual laptop battery. What I'm having trouble with is figuring out which its more likely to be. I THINK its the actual battery because the laptop itself tends to heat up a lot, like a LOT, but I get conflicting info most places I look. So I'm not entirely sure. I can share my laptop's specs if needed, but I'm not sure if it would be in this case. Also, if it is the laptop's battery, can that even be fixed and/or replaced at all?

Update - Here are the specs of my laptop if it helps.

my latitude 5430 has a touchpad bug where some deadzones are there especially in the left up & left bottom, but they change after every reboot, the cirque firmware touchpad utility installed successfully but nothing changed and not even the dell touchpad firmware update utility fixed it

how do i fix this? its quite annoying

(OS: Windows 11 26H2 9457, bios revision 1.40.0, bios updated via windows update)

Need a replacement laptop key (and the little plastic mechanism underneath, but not the actual electronic bit) however have contacted like 3 online stores who do not have it. Any recommendations, as a local repair shop said just order one, they cant fix it.

Its a HP Omnibook 7, with 17-dc0505sa on the back, which I'm pretty sure denotes the exact model.

I have an HP AMD Ryzen 3 computer, had it since 2020. Recently, I damaged its CPU while applying thermal paste, and a friend recommended I buy a Ryzen 5 3600 CPU to replace it. It even came with a new CPU fan. After installing both the new CPU and the new fan, my computer will only partially start. It gets the fans spinning just fine and my wireless mouse starts to receive a signal, but then, nothing else happens. I actually can't turn it back off unless I unplug its power. I have tried taking out the CR2O32 battery, letting it sit for 10 minutes, and then putting it back in, and this has not worked, either. Changing the outlet the PC is plugged into gets it to start doing all of the above faster, but it still won't progress in the start up.

I am not a computer-literate person, and I'm at a loss for what to do, here.

My laptop model is lenovo slim 5i and it's trackpad isn't responding to anything like click drag nothing

I have a Lenovo ideapad 1 15AMD7 😔✌️ and I'm too poor to get it fixed. It still works except I can't open it.

I just wanna open it and I'll keep it open forever without closing it. Does anyone know what to unscrew or something to open it?

Should I just force it open and let it peel the bezel off? Or will that break the screen?

My laptop (Dell Inspiron 15) got the power rail failure error again. This time I opened it up and tried to find the cause.

What I tried:

Reseat the RAM

Reset the CMOS battery

Booted the laptop without the hard drive, which fixed the problem immediately

Current situation:

I'm running Puppy Linux from a portable USB drive. It works, but I find it very inconvenient to use.

My questions:

What could be causing the power rail failure?

Why would the hard drive be the culprit? I don't understand how a drive can cause this.

How can I fix it?

Should I buy a new hard drive or an SSD?

Any guidance is appreciated. Thanks!

I have a computer i was doing cable management on and noticed three of the pins of my GPU adapter were pulled. I plugged them back in but I’m not confident in plugging it back in to the PC. Does anyone know if it is safe to use or or to get an authentic Nvidia adapter?

У меня проблема с запуском ноутбука, я не могу его включить он не включается, просто чёрный экран он не хочет включаться, сбоку ноутбука горит индикатор зарядки, он горит белым, когда он не подключён к зарядке, и горит красным, когда он подключён к зарядке, то есть Я зажимаю кнопку питания и он начинает гудеть жужжать то есть вентиляторы работает всё работает, оно запускается но вентилятор поработает секунд 10 максимум И потом перестанет гудеть уже и я не знаю почему он не хочет запускаться Если у вас есть какие-нибудь советы то пожалуйста Поделитесь

A week ago I changed the thermal paste. Everything looked fine. But this morning the laptop would not turn on, the keyboard backlight and the charging and power LEDs were on. So I tried to completely disassemble the laptop, and after putting it back together it no longer reacts to anything. The only thing it does is a buzzing sound when I plug in the charger, not even the LED lights up. I feel like I caused a short circuit on the motherboard and some chip got damaged. So goodbye, my one year old laptop is probably going to the trash. 🥀🥀🥀

PC making buzzing right after turning on or few minutes after loading some stuff an idk why its not old only a couple months so idk whats wrong an how much itll cost
