PENTIUM 4 MOTHERBOARD REPAIR - GIGABYTE GA-8IK1100 #restoredwards
Hi everyone, hope you are doing good.
In this video we will dive into a nice repair on a nice Gigabyte motherboard that was saved from the trash.
It is in good shape in spite of bad capacitors and a noisy little fan cooler.
So join me while I recap the bad capacitors, lubricate and clean the fan and heat sink from the chip set to then install it in my big green tower case.
The only thing is that my voice sounds funny sometimes because I was ill and had to edit, it's not the best so sorry for that.
Thanks to Gery for donating this motherboard!
Hope you enjoy the video and if you want you can leave a like and subscribe.
Thanks for watching!
Cheers!

Thanks! What a pity, hope it is fixable. Does the CPU cooler turns on when you start it?
me seen you Gheto the Solder Pistol up in the ventilator, and then it vibrates and almost fall, (in my mind, no no no no no) then nothing wrong happens .

I am overwhelmed by the amount of wisdom that flows out from your videos as a continuous ongoing stream of knowledge!
Ah yes indeed! All intended for us to make the better for ourselves and everyone through the path of enlightenment in this short but chaotic life we are in everyday.
Its shame that Aiwa and so many vintage brand that were top quality in the 60,70,80s are now cheap Chinese trash
Thanks for your comment! Look at this: aiwa.co/products/bb-x50-wireless-boombox?variant=43716435017881
I broken mine pulling a power cable over the turntables and it caught the arm. pulled it all the way to the right. I think some bearing or something as it started causing skipping and didn't want to move properly. jiggling got it to work but still broken. I'm scared to pull it apart but this video gives me some insight what to look forward to and hopefully replace the part. the arms cost is the same as the whole turntable at the price I bought it decades ago LOL
This was the exact problem on this one. Pretty common it seems. The best thing would be to never pass over them. Thanks for your comment!
Pls sir if you can help,,,,I have been working on a hartke head Ha3500,,that was vandalized,,,finally mounted missing components following the schematics, preamp works fine now,,,but for the power amp section relay won't click so no sound output,,,,yet transistors are ok,,power supply looks great....what can I do?
I'm not familiar with the amp but if it was in bad shape, it's very particular for that device itself the damage, try to continue troubleshooting for problems. If there's an IC that controls the relay and protect mode, you can start from there and any shorts or small alteration on the board, traces, ground, for example, could trigger protect mode as well.
@@restoredwards Ok ,thanks
Cool video sir..gives me more confidence as an upcoming technician.
Thank you! You can learn everything and you will restore stuff. Whenever we can recover something that was trash it makes the world a better place. And electronics are out of hand so it is great having more technicians.
A neat build!👍👍
Thank you!
nice, thanks!
Cheers!
Very nicely done.
Thanks!
Those are nice PCs! The Shure case is kind of cool!! I didn't realize they made PCs! The Commodore is also nice! Thank you. The Shure PSU is loud! But look how old it is!
Hey thanks for your comment! The Shure is a ripoff from the original, if you see in detail it reads like Siure SI-URE or something. Very smart since it is very similar and they can evade any legal infringements. It's all generic CPU case with PSU.
How did you clean that grime on the blades of the GPU?
With some turpentine and water.
I am amazed by your crafty powers, as well as your hability to patiently explain all the procedures with care and passion for us to understand the knowledge required to restore all this stuff! I thank thy!!!!!
Thanks siupa cousin!
Nice video and interesting computer. That pci slot with the small extension is something I never saw. But the chipset drivers are not installed or dont work, I think. All 3 Nvidia card show Bus: PCI. If the chipset drivers were working, it should say: Bus: AGP. That is causing the crashes and the glitches. Cool machine capable of many retro games you have there.
Hey man thank you! I will check drivers for sure
Nice video. I have a Gamer Nexus - Mouse Pad as well. I have watched the Gamer Nexus channel for a very long time. :)
Thanks, the mat is very good and has saved me from shocks. If you see in detail, there's a darker spot that voltage burnt through. Never catch any fire, I realized because of the sound the current was making.
Wonder if has the GN coffee mug! ☕
I think we had a 386 in the early 90s with a DTK badge on the case, purchased from a budget reseller in metro Melbourne, Australia.
That's nice, they were all over the world.
I guess I also subbed then :)
Thanks!
Very interesting systems. Never seen a socket 7 system with onboard video and audio on a riser card. But that 48 score in 3dbench is very low for a Pentium 120. I have a DTK computer covered on my channel too. But mine is a midtower socket 370 Celeron Mendocino 533mhz with AGP slot. Very strange that it has the DIN keyboard and AT power supply too. I like these cases with the 3 stripes in the front.
Thanks for your comment. I think something is not good with the BIOS configuration or the partition with DOS in the hard drive respecting the benchmark. Would be nice to make a second part video. I will check your channel as well, cheers!
I wonder i they repurposed the com😊uters as thin clients? My Grandma used in the 2000s, it was a P3 and a big keyboard connector (I now know it AT DIN) and you needed an adaptor. It also had a CD drive added and I remember playing games on it but the graphic card was extra bad!
The surely repurposed AT cases and PSUs. And yes, having good graphics in the past was a struggle for most of us!
@@restoredwards I think so. I think I remember my Junior school had lots of beige box computers but they were P4
@@Qwertypigeon853 The cases started to be relevant after 2000 mor or less, but I can't remember to see cases on sale as they are now.
Pentium 2 era and DIN keyboard connector? what they thinking? :)
That's right! You had to get your PS2 connector mounted. I think they intended this so you don´t have to upgrade the case. It's like a mid period motherboard insisting on AT cases.
This brand have done odd things in that era, there was also a similar model with two sockets, one for the cartidge type cpu's and one PGA370 (une usable depending on CPU)... Can't rememder the model right now, and BTW, those algo had a big DIN5 connector... hahaha
Oh boy! Those PC-Chips brand motherboards for P II, haven't seen those for a while, good memories come back, I've used to repair those things in the early 2000's. I' also keept a bunch of the original driver CD's that where shipped in the motherboard's bundle for OEM retailers.
I used to have those CDs as well, I remember they were everywhere when this brand was going on like AOL ones haha.

Did you think about retro bright for the plastics to bring it back to near new look removes the stains and plastic cement putty to fill the holes where its broken ?
Yes of course! I will revive that front and case where it's bent and that. Also some epoxy surely and try to match the colour where it's broken but yes, definitely going to revive it. Thanks for your comment!
we have the same mobo, mine stuck at 6:30 then reboot again, even with no gpu, cant enter bios
That's a pity! You can try swapping the memory modules and processor as well. If it works without them your problems may be a faulty memory or processor. All this with the least peripherals connected, only keyboard and monitor known to be working. If the CPU and memory were changed or you know that the ones used are flawless, it could be a failing motherboard, BIOS conflict of some sort or bad component. I suppose you cleared CMOS to BIOS defaults?
@@restoredwards I will try to change the mobo, it's only a week using this 2nd hand mobo at first it was working fine, after a day not using it, it turns unresponsive

for a sec there i thought the agp port was broke till the Vanta card played the 3dmarkk 99 without artifacting, sorry dude but you must have a lot of faulty agp cards laying around.
I don't think so. The artefacts are because of compatibility or drivers or other reason but if you see in my other video in the other PC they are working fine: ruclips.net/video/Dtw5xzl_X2Q/видео.htmlsi=VsA-RGWmN1WGyo5P&t=907 Also, no artefacts in windows games like Half Life or Quake. This AGP cards are not very good whatsoever, if I would build a system I would go for something else.
@restoredwards I did have a cross over board which I recently sold that was pentium 4 that had both agp and pci-e on it I got £46 for it which I feel is a good price obviously Americans would disagree and wait for a billion years to sell it for like £120-£250, I'm shocked and appalled at the prices Americans ask for Retro motherboards.
@@danthompsett2894 Sure, in each country handle different economies and if the retro community is big the cash flow will be bigger I suppose.
@@danthompsett2894 Niche motherboar that one, never saw AGP PCIE in same motherboard.
@@restoredwards unfortunately they all come from the USA least on Ebay.
I used to work at a credit union and we had some of these. 1ghz. We had some newer dells with 2.4 P4's, they were faster, BARELY. I miss the Vectra's. After HP bought compaq, they took those on as their business computer, and those to this day derive from the compaq design not the HP designs! I remember the HP/Compaq 6300's..then it was all HP ProDesk/EliteDesk, those derive from compaq design. It was a funny few years to say you had an HP Compaq
Indeed! Those were the days, thanks for your comment!
Pity it's a micro ATX motherboard not a full ATX.
Yes, I like it it's a good one. Maybe I can find the expansion board for the ISA slots, I saw in other videos in some models of Vectra it was included.
I realy need to get my hands on a PSU tester.
it's really usefull to have it at hand
Don’t know much about electronics but I’ve heard the word alignment when it comes to heads. Are there any pots that can be adjusted ?
Hey man thanks! It should have some calibration as you say, I will not give up and in the next video we might have some luck. Cheers!
if that old drive is still working i would advise you to clone it since it's the factory operating system.
i have an xfx version of it.
fx5200 is the worst geforce card ever made.
For this system it fits quite nice, what other AGP card would you recommend?
@@restoredwards i would say ati 9550 which has 256mb of vram.
or go with an oldie but a goodie which is the original radeon the 7000 series....mine has 64mb vram and is agp.
@@michaelwood9866 That's sounds good! What about a GeForce 6200 with 256?
@@restoredwards that's also a good one just steer clear of the fx series
Thanks! gran trabajo, gracias por el vídeo ;)
Gracias por la buena onda Dani! Saludos
Great, thank you.
Gracias! Saludos
I love the sound of old mechanical hard drive spinning up ;-)
Yes, it brings up the nostalgia every time
Nice machine! I think Windows 95 would run a lot better on it though, and be more compatible for games. If you wanted the dual CPUs then NT4 is better. Perhaps a dual boot. Thanks for the video!
Totally agree! I am just eager for the two processors working. It's a pity there are few options for that, only NT and 2000 but yea I would make a dual boot or 2 different drives one with Windows 95. Cheers!
That Commodore Branded system is an Interesting find. That was made by a company called "Commodore USA" I believe.
It has to be, there was a period of time they were going around.
If I remember correctly that was the Commodore that eventually brought out the Commodore 64 / 128 and then the Amiga series of computers.
@@johnpaulbacon8320 They went defunct in 1994, and while Commodore did make IBM-PC Compatibles, They were all beige. That one appears to be from 2008 due to the Vista COA and Phenom X3
scrapyard wars is back!
They are always there! one of them was lying around here for a couple of years but on the streets, on someones basement and more, you never know what could appear.
That Phenom can be unlocked to a quadcore with a motherboard supporting that feature.
That's interesting, I'll be looking for a MB for it. Great, thanks!
good video and we got to see it go
I have a possible buyer, he wants a working machine, hopefully this week, thanks!
@restoredwards I sold my old q6600 pc this week they only need a basic pc it had ssd so was not to slow.
@@EastAngliaUK Yes, depending the needs there are still systems that cover them. Also, if they can manage some Linux OS, they are good to go.
8:30 I will never disparage my own cable management ever again. Holy hell what is that monstrosity?! 😅😂😂
Things you would find at the barber shop! 🤣
Free is a good price!👍👍
Sure it is!
Second one may also be limited by the 32 bit OS, as well as the chunk taken for graphics
Yes, the OS installed was 32 bit. With external video and other OS hopefully changes for better.
Shure is better known for microphones and record pickup cartridges.
Sure it is! The resemblance is there but this case has nothing to do with it.
Did you really monitoring that temperature of that hard drive? I have a 10K drive thats already getting burning hot. Should really active cool that HDD. Otherwise drive is death in a couple of months. Cant image that your drive is running cooler..
