OPEN ME UP No, thank you for this video. I got the exact same model several years ago, and I just couldnt find any useful information about this pc, other than regular manuals, which doesnt even show how to disassemble the pc. So yes, thank you.
i am not certain what the problem is. but the hard drive has not affect on the computer. therefore you can install a 4tb hard drive and it will be the same as 1tb hard drive
@@OpenMeUpTec you're correct. the camera problem is that Win10 lacks the driver for it and ASUS does not support WIN10 on this model pc. A few years ago a installed Win10, with no hardware changes, and the camera stopped working. Device manager showed it as an unknot device. ASUS said Win10 not supported on this PC.
@@jimw544 yes i have seen this but have not seen problems with the camera not working. the camera normally wokrs by default without any drives. this is an old computer therefore you will need to upgrade it soon
May I know, what problem you encountered that made you change the battery? I just replaced the battery in the motherboard, but pc cannot boot up. After push power button, it turned on though, but after showing the ASUS slogan, the monitor turned black. It supposed to POST and let you the option to access BIOS setup. But the monitor just turned black with the fans running. Unplug everything including power cord and press and hold the power button for 20 seconds to drain the residue power in the board to try reset it. Have repeated these procedures a couple of times, but still got the same result as monitor showing nothing and pc won't start up. Have any clues, anyone, can share to help?
Hello, I have an old aio computer that is still working properly. But now I want to turn it into a monitor to fit a computer case in to work like a normal PC. thanks a lot.
Thank you for this great video which helped me a lot! I am trying to duplicate my ASUS 2700I screen on another monitor via the HDMI or VGA socket but this is not possible. I can view an entry to my computer, but I cannot share my computer to another screen. Do you have a tip? Thank you !
thanks man awesome video helped me alot, just wanna know currently i have i5 cpu so can i upgrade to i7 and also graphic card currently amd 2gb can i upgrade that too
CPU can be changed, Ram can be changed to 16GB max with 8GB DDR3 in each slot and there are 2 slots, wireless can be changed, and hard drive is a 3.5" inch hard drive.
Thank you for the clip, it's indeed helpful. Before I try my hand on it, I wish to check, is there CMOS battery in there? I think it is the battery that causes my PC not loading.
Thank you for the video! I'd like to upgrade the hdd with an SSD. Can i do it just replacing the hdd with any kind of SSD or there is something i need to know?
Thanks for the video, its helpfull and very good directed by you. I have et2410, its not has tv tuner, how can i add it. I have a mini hd satellite dish receiver. Before i installing it, any advice? When i open the computer Windows caming as you know. I tried it on a Led monitör, it worked. So how can i manage to use as tv, i mean if it can damage to use hdmi hd mini tv receiver. Sorry for my English.
Thank you for all the information. You warn everybody of the DVD player's slime sata connection and its eject cable. You then quickly detach the eject cable, but how did you do that?👍
not sure what you need help with. in the video i shown how i remove it therefore is there something i can explain to help you removes yours?. please watch the video and tell me at what time you need help
@@OpenMeUpTec Thank you for responding to my question. I am thinking of fitting my ET2701 with either a SSD or a large capacity HDD for video editing. Have conflicting information on the HDD verses SSD for this use as it is the ram that does all the rendering. So is a faster SSD drive worth the extra cash? But that was not my question to you. Your video gave me the confidence (thank you again) to remove the back of my ET2701 as a reconnaissance exercise. I removed the slime sata connection to the DVD easily but the wire attached to the eject mechanism proved more difficult and since I did not have the parts (because I can't make up my mind on the SSD v HDD) I put everything back together. However, when I come to put replace the present HDD, I need to summon up enough courage to detach the eject wire. Did you just pull it, or does it have a release catch?
@@UsefulWisdom i believe you can just pull it. i dont remember as it has been sometime now. having a SSD is just makes you life better, but if you asking about video editing only then it does make a difference but not something extremely big. ssd will make your system more responsive and improve your computer experience. i cant tell you the how much better it is but you will notice the difference instantly if you use an SSD
@@OpenMeUpTec Thank you for your reply. I have swapped a HDD for a SSD in an Asus laptop and it improved it, start times and the trackpad is noticeably better. I have watched your video hundreds of times, stopping it and trying to calculate the space inside the PC. There is enough space in the PC to fit an SSD without removing the HDD. I had the idea of swapping the sata 111 connected to the HDD to an new SSD. Then connecting the present HDD to the DVDs sata cable. Its speed is only sata 1 but that is fast enough for the present HDD to work. I could then used a usb cable to connect the DVD player. The usb cable will fits through a gap where the PCs stand connects without the need to drill a hole . I would have used a usb to slime sata cable to connect it. The DVD only requires 5 volts and the usb supplies 5 volts. Then I realized, slime sata. only has 5 volts power and the present HDD needs 12 volts. I know the easy solution is to put a SSD in the PC. Then the old HDD in an enclosure (with 12 volts supped to it from a power brick) and run it from a usb. But there is no challenge in doing that and it will clutter up my desk.
@@UsefulWisdom there lots of room inside. you can buy a dvd drive to 2.5 hard drive adaptor so you can use a ssd and a normal hard drive. you can get them off ebay for around $10AUD
Hey there, great video. I gave it a thubs up. Quick question. I have a ET2701I and research shows max ram is 8GB but you say 16GB. Just want to make sure before I buy. Thanks
CPU can be changed, Ram can be changed to 16GB max with 8GB DDR3 in each slot and there are 2 slots, wireless can be changed, and hard drive is a 3.5" inch hard drive.
OPEN ME UP thanks a lot. Just wanted to be sure. Windows 10 seems a little laggy. I think I’m going to try that mini ssd trick as well by inserting in the tuner slot and make that my boot drive. Thanks, really appreciate the reply!
@@rickbowman9309 no thats not possible. as i had this computer with 16GB and they were selling this with 16GB at some stage. can you confirm your ram are both working
@@OpenMeUpTec I have just received an email from Asus support to say the maximum ram the ET2701I takes is just 2x4GB. However my opinion of Asus support is not that high so I plan to test it myself when I can get a stick of 8GB DDR3.
Hi, the motherboard have 4 ram slot so i have added other 2x8GB (24 gb total) and on into the cdrom bay i add 980 crucial ssd. Now it is another pc very very fast. I have purchased 128gb m2 sata and i try to install it on the back of the motherboard where seams to be a m2 slot.
Not sure if you are still responding to questions. I recently had to change out a broken DVD player from this exact same AIO. The new dvd player works fine, but the eject button still doesn't work. It stopped working around the same time old dvd player stopped working. One of the screw holding circuit board for the eject button to the cover was loose, so I thought the button wasn't making proper contact, but tightening it didn't seem to help. Do you have any advice on what else I can try. I can still manually eject using the pin hole or using right click and selecting Eject from Windows.
Are there any significant changes to the ET2702 from the ET2700? I'm considering getting one of these and want to change the RAM out for 32gb instead of the 8 it comes with. Also, does the AIO PC come with a warranty? If so I'm assuming opening it up voids said warranty. Thanks in advance!
+Zelliaind Raul it is the same casing but newer stuff inside but it is basically the same performance. you only can put 16gb in it as there are only 2 slots. opening it up should not void warranty
Hi! The screen of my AIO is dead. Looked around and the consensus is that it cannot be repaired or replaced. So, I am using an external monitor for the time being. But, it looks horrible. The PC is fine. Good even. It all, just, looks awkward, with a big empty screen and an external monitor on the side. My question is, is it possible to just remove the motherboard and transfer it to a custom designed casing and use it as a desktop computer? Like a DIY job? As I am still using my AIO, and so, I don't want to start unless I know it is possible. Thank for the feedback.

@@OpenMeUpTec because if I remove the electrical power when I put it again I go directly to the BIOS/UEFI screen and save it again to restart the computer (ET2702). Are you sure that is soldered?
@@alfonsoportals7568 try looking for the user manual it will tell you where it is. i remember it is soldered on. it has been years since i made this video
@@OpenMeUpTec thank you for your answer. There is nothing in the user manual.

Hi, I opened up my 2410 today to do a dust extraction (overheating issues), and upgrade some RAM. Put it all back together and now my speakers don't work. Headphone jack is ok. Opened it up again, no obvious issues or damage to speaker cables. Any ideas?
Hello! I'm looking at 0:30 for where the battery is but I don't see it; where is the battery on the motherboard? I replaced the CPU but now have a blank/black screen - it doesn't go to POST. Returning the old CPU, I still have the black screen (both chips are H61 chips with 65W) and no beep for incorrect RAM, which makes me suspect either something really bad happened with the CPU socket or the batter on the motherboard is dead. Help please!
Battery is a mistake thanks for telling me I removed it. What you need to test is remove the ram and place the CPU in and the computer will beep twice which means no ram if not then something wrong with the CPU or motherboard try that first and tell me what happen I will help you from there
OPEN ME UP Thanks! Nope, no beeps. It's not even making it to POST. The initial splash screen for the monitor shows but then the whole screen goes blank. I've removed the battery and re-inserted, as well as reinput both a new i7-3770s and old i7-2600s with no change.
there is a few questions after you answer get back to me with the answer 1. does the fan spin when you turn on the power with and with out the CPU. 2. the CPU socket is there bent pins as this is important there are none if you happen to bin the pins it can cause a big issue as the computer requires the pins to touch the bottom of the CPU. some pin when bent will render then computer unless like not turning on when other might cause issue like the computer not been able to detect ram or can only detect some ram. 3. turn on the computer without ram and CPU and see if it makes any beeps
OPEN ME UP 1. Yes. 2. No, none that I can see. I looked with a magnifying glass. 3. Just tried it; no beep. No sound at all after the initial splash screen.
hi i have a similar model number and continuously get "no signal" message. Monitor goes blank and comes back on in a few seconds. happens repeatedly. any ideas?
There's a very simple solution to this. Switch off your main power (on your wall socket). Turn it back on and hold the power button on your screen along with the rubber button behind it. You'll have to hold these two for a few seconds (count till 10 or so)... then leave it. It will start your system with the BIOS screen on. Just save and exit.
CPU can be changed, Ram can be changed to 16GB max with 8GB DDR3 in each slot and there are 2 slots, wireless can be changed, and hard drive is a 3.5" inch hard drive.
No with most AIO you can not change it. so what it comes with is what you have to keep. the only one that comes with a removable graphic card is HP. but then even with the HP the graphic card that comes with it is normal the best one you can get with it so there is no point of changing it.
3 as 2 is quite old and they basically don't make it anymore. It doesn't really matter as there is no difference between the two for a everyday basic user
I did exactly what you did then put it back together the same way as I took it apart and it's not turning on...and I went back and double checked everything is how it was...wtf
if there is smoke something must have went wrong. also because there is smoke i doubt your computer will work anymore. seems like the motherboard just died
For any PC with a dvd drive you can take it out and put a hard drive in it. You will need the DVD drive to hard drive adapter which you can find on ebay and the hard drive must be a 2.5 inch hard drive. It cost 8 AUD for one pretty cheap there is a link to ebay below. www.ebay.com.au/itm/Universal-12-7mm-Aluminum-SATA-to-SATA-2nd-HDD-Caddy-For-CD-DVD-ROM-New-Sale-/171095689109?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_15&hash=item27d6190795
+OPEN ME UP Thank you very much for reply. But it's not a good news for me, because I wanna keep my TV tuner card. So, here is the fact : Someone want sell me this Asus for 800€, but I think a SSD will be a very good thing. So, I would like to know if there is a solution (maybe with some tape ? Or with a SSHD ?) or if it will be better to buy another one, but seems difficult at this price, no ? Thanks for your advice
@@OpenMeUpTec thanks for responding. I put it in and went to disc management, found nothing. Went to device manager no unknown sources or new devices. I did go into the bios and turned on a setting that enables extra hardware then I saw an unknown device pop up. Tried putting a storage controller to it and never saw it again.

ET2702IGTH is it still possible to replace/upgrade this motherboard. Have you created a video showing the details on this task?
there is no point replacing the motherboard unless it is faulty. if you want to upgrade it dont bother, go buy a desktop
My motherboard has been determined DEAD and needs replacement. I need the all in one not a desk top.
you will find the motherboard costing quite a bit. you can get yourself a new AIO
I have a No signal when I plug it in then I get black screen any idea how to fix
you need to open it up and remove the ram and then tell me if it beeps or not
Hello, was wondering if this will still work as a monitor if I harvest the CPU from it.
Thank you
yes and no. as long as you can turn it on it should work. normally the computer needs to start for you to use it as a monitor
Hello! I'm looking at 0:30 for where the battery is but I don't see it; where is the battery on the motherboard? I replaced the CPU but now have a blank/black screen - it doesn't go to POST. Returning the old CPU, I still have the black screen (both chips are H61 chips with 65W) and no beep for incorrect RAM, which makes me suspect either something really bad happened with the CPU socket or the batter on the motherboard is dead. Help please!
Battery is a mistake thanks for telling me I removed it. What you need to test is remove the ram and place the CPU in and the computer will beep twice which means no ram if not then something wrong with the CPU or motherboard try that first and tell me what happen I will help you from there
OPEN ME UP Thanks! Nope, no beeps. It's not even making it to POST. The initial splash screen for the monitor shows but then the whole screen goes blank. I've removed the battery and re-inserted, as well as reinput both a new i7-3770s and old i7-2600s with no change.
there is a few questions after you answer get back to me with the answer
1. does the fan spin when you turn on the power with and with out the CPU.
2. the CPU socket is there bent pins as this is important there are none if you happen to bin the pins it can cause a big issue as the computer requires the pins to touch the bottom of the CPU. some pin when bent will render then computer unless like not turning on when other might cause issue like the computer not been able to detect ram or can only detect some ram.
3. turn on the computer without ram and CPU and see if it makes any beeps
OPEN ME UP
1. Yes.
2. No, none that I can see. I looked with a magnifying glass.
3. Just tried it; no beep. No sound at all after the initial splash screen.
Logan Lo I assume it was working before you tried to change the CPU ?
hi i have a similar model number and continuously get "no signal" message. Monitor goes blank and comes back on in a few seconds. happens repeatedly. any ideas?
this is happening to me also.... I wonder how to repair this issue...
Hi there did you solved the problem?
hey! my screen just up and died too. using an external monitor now. as solution on to how to repair the screen?
replace battery under the motherboard
There's a very simple solution to this. Switch off your main power (on your wall socket). Turn it back on and hold the power button on your screen along with the rubber button behind it. You'll have to hold these two for a few seconds (count till 10 or so)... then leave it. It will start your system with the BIOS screen on. Just save and exit.
Mine has an Intel Core i3. I know you can change the CPU, but is it possible for me to switch it out for an Intel Core i5 or i7?
CPU can be changed, Ram can be changed to 16GB max with 8GB DDR3 in each slot and there are 2 slots, wireless can be changed, and hard drive is a 3.5" inch hard drive.
@@OpenMeUpTec Is it msata slot over there near wifi module?
@@MarshallJukov yes and no. that slots is used for a TV tuner card but you can use it for msata SSD if you need to
Can you do one for the MSI All in One PC AE2220?
Sorry, all the video I create are of item I actually own and will most likely never have any MSI AIO.
OPEN ME UP The other AIO, do you know if a geforce video card can be added or replace the old one?
No with most AIO you can not change it. so what it comes with is what you have to keep. the only one that comes with a removable graphic card is HP. but then even with the HP the graphic card that comes with it is normal the best one you can get with it so there is no point of changing it.
OPEN ME UP If I change the memory RAM and CPU do I have to worry about lost data from my computer?
Nope. You just turn it back and everything is done as data is store in your hard drive and has nothing to do with the other
Btw, where is the PSU located?
it is external. you have a power brick with this
Do you know how to switch the input to HDMI? I can't find a video how to do it anywhere.
there is an input switch button on the front. also you computer must be on for you to switch it. Basically you need to load into the desktop to do it
what screw driver did you use to remove the motherboard cover
normal screw driver
Do you know what SATA version is the Hard Drive using ?
3 as 2 is quite old and they basically don't make it anymore. It doesn't really matter as there is no difference between the two for a everyday basic user
may be somebody know how to change a matrix here?
Hey, where i can change the SSD? I mean the 100 GB of included SSD?
yes you can
Will it take/work with ivy bridge cpu
these came with 4gen intel cpu's therefore anything 4th gen will work
Have asus ET 2230 mother board has gone,but I can't get back open HELP
i am confused what your issue is. watch the video and tell me at what time this thing shows up
Is the graphics card integrated into the mother board or can it be changed?
+Rachel Rifenberg graphic card is soldered on
I did exactly what you did then put it back together the same way as I took it apart and it's not turning on...and I went back and double checked everything is how it was...wtf
what is the issue
When I click the power button nothing is happening
Nothing seems to be broken or anything it's just not turning on, and a little bit of smoke had come from the motherboard
Do you have kik? If u do kik SwifterModz
if there is smoke something must have went wrong. also because there is smoke i doubt your computer will work anymore. seems like the motherboard just died
Do you know if you can take out the DVD and put in a hardrive instead?
For any PC with a dvd drive you can take it out and put a hard drive in it. You will need the DVD drive to hard drive adapter which you can find on ebay and the hard drive must be a 2.5 inch hard drive. It cost 8 AUD for one pretty cheap there is a link to ebay below. www.ebay.com.au/itm/Universal-12-7mm-Aluminum-SATA-to-SATA-2nd-HDD-Caddy-For-CD-DVD-ROM-New-Sale-/171095689109?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_15&hash=item27d6190795
Hello, Is it possible to add a SSD hard drive ? To have 1 SSD, 1 HHD, and 1 DVD Drive ? Thanks !
+Deleepify nope not really but you can use a msata SDD hard drive by removing your TV tuner card
+OPEN ME UP Thank you very much for reply. But it's not a good news for me, because I wanna keep my TV tuner card.
So, here is the fact : Someone want sell me this Asus for 800€, but I think a SSD will be a very good thing. So, I would like to know if there is a solution (maybe with some tape ? Or with a SSHD ?) or if it will be better to buy another one, but seems difficult at this price, no ? Thanks for your advice
Use a USB TV tuner
hi @openmeup i just bought a 120GB msata and install it. i dont see it being recognized by the pc. what shold be my first step ??
yes you need to remove the TV tuner card to use it
@@OpenMeUpTec my model didn't come with a TV turner. Just the network card.
@@hscott4190 if you put the msata in the TV slot it should work normally
@@OpenMeUpTec thanks for responding. I put it in and went to disc management, found nothing. Went to device manager no unknown sources or new devices. I did go into the bios and turned on a setting that enables extra hardware then I saw an unknown device pop up. Tried putting a storage controller to it and never saw it again.
@@hscott4190 if that the case take out your wifi card and test the msata in that. if it doesnt work in that as well there is something wrong with the msata
hi
my pc doesnt start up anymore
tried installing new system and it orked for awhile then same issue
any ideas
many thanks
if you can install a new system and it works most likely you have software issues not hardware issue likes virus and stuff
can you change the CPU on a ET2410IUTS?
yes it is a desktop CPU
Everything I see online says the et2701 can only take 8gb ram total 2x4gb. Crucial website shows et2702 can take 16gb ram 2x8gb and also shows being able to buy a SSD for it...
I am confused as I have a et2701i and I would really like to increase the ram and replace the HDD with a SSD to speed things up. Idk where to go to get helpp?!
when the spec sheet came out 8gb sticks weren't available. thatch why. it takes 2x 8gb sticks and you can use a SSD. i have done it with the computer in the video and confirm it works
@@OpenMeUpTec(Only 2702i) Hi, the motherboard have 4 ram slot so i have added other 2x8GB (24GB Total)and on into the cdrom bay i add 980 crucial ssd. Now it is another pc very very fast. I have purchased 128gb m2 sata and i try to install it on the back of the motherboard where seams to be a m2 slot.

Is it possible to replace the gt 640m Graphicscard with a gtx 980m?
Nope unless you know how to solder and extremely good at it
Wait sorry for late response to your answer but can i break the pc if i remove it wrong?
ALSO IS IT LAPTOP OR DESKTOP RAM ????
laptop ram. no nothing should be able to go wrong as things only go in one way and fit one way
I need to see why my computer thinks it has no webcam
Probably something wrong with the cable. I have seen it many times. It can be the webcam is faulty but unlikely. If you microphone works then the webcam is faulty since they use the same cable

lolLeo 1 From what I know and with mine, there is no graphics card. You can change the CPU though, along with the ram and SSD.
Does anyone know how I can get part number for the hard drive caddy. I having the hardest time and not even ASUS is helpful. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
***** just use sticky tape and hold it down you don't need the hard drive caddy
Thanks for the info. No disrepsect but the lift in tone at the end of every sentence kinda put me off the video. But every dialect has it's kinks I suppose.
