    5:12 warning for others: please do not inject 19v on the main power rail for fun, when normally that voltage is missing. You can be lucky, or you can inject 19V straight to cpu/gpu/chipset IF any of the mosfets or PWM controllers are partial damaged or not working properly. Always there is a reason when the motherboard cut down the main high voltage.
    Sorin started...
    with correct voltage - he injected 0.9V on the beginning to the main rail, and he discovered that there is no short, so he assumed that it is safe now to inject 19V. I agree with him, but he didn't told you about the warning, that if you want to inject 19V, you have to start from 0.9 in the first place, which is typical cpu/gpu voltage.

      That is very common on every single tutorial on RUclips that is not everyone is an expert, but the author often missed to just warning for newcomers.

    I work in IT but I'm a total noob in electronics. I just like watching your repairs cause it feels like magic to me. Also, you have a very enjoyable personality and explain what you do well.
    I think in this day and time, you're doing god's work by not only repairing stuff, but also showing everyone how to do the same.
    Kudos and much respect to you sir.

    Amazing! If he hadn't taken time to explain, it'd take him 2 minutes start to finish. Have to say, Sorin you have a gift: Teaching difficult to grasp topics in a manner others can fully comprehend. Very few and also the very best university professors share this quality. (Most practice linguistic ambiguity. ) College kids: Sorin is an excellent standard to hold professors to. Before "add/drop week," professors who haven't made you understand concepts well the first week, a) can't & b) don't improve and c) waste your semester.) I feel blessed to be able to learn from you Sorin.

    Hello Sorin! I subscribed to your channel and I love every video you produce.
    All I wanted to say in this message is that I respect your work, humor and ingenious solutions for customers with "dead" laptops.
    I just wanted to say hello and thank you for the great videos!
    I really like each one! I'm a retired IBM technician at the former IBM Endicott facility, New York, USA (1974-2002) I'm almost 75 years old, and I don't repair hardware or software repairs any longer. Thank you very much! 😊

    Halo Mr Sorin. A very warm thank you from South Africa. I just fixe a Toshiba Satellite c850 with you help. Its probably same model laptop as this video of yours. And the same solution too. Thank you sir for giving me courage. I will post my successful repair on RUclips very soon. One more time Sorin thank you very much to share your knowledge to us.

    Nice. Along with other diagnosis and repair videos it shows how nice and simple things can be. I just need 1) the tools to deal with SMDs, 2) the eyesight to see that small properly, 3) the time to devote to dismantling, fixing and rebuilding, 4) the space to store all the tiny screws so that I can find them again when I can't meet the criteria for point 3), and 5) the courage to do it.

    I buddy that runs a computer repair shop had a bunch of laptops (40 plus) ranging from windows xp to10 that he just had sitting around because the recycling place he used to take them to shut down and he can't legally just dump them so he offered them to me since I like tinkering. I've never done motherboard repair so this going to be a fun skill to learn. First time seeing this channel and just subcribed.

    He lastly told the reason and true story. Good, many people wouldn't tell this. I am totally not a computer repairing guy, just an electronic engineer. Lately, l need to repair my failed old laptops. Luckily, l can find those motherboard schematics on the web. By tracing the problem, a failed mosfet on power rail area found, it was caused by a failed capacitor that shorting power rail to ground. Today, I see this video

    your expertise in computer repair is clear and sound. how would you feel about something new? like assisting me repairing my almost new thinkpad w540 that doesn't want to turn on and doesn't show any signs of life. we can do it via youtube so all you subscribers and newcomers would see new channel format :)
    the only reason for that to me is that there are no computer repair shops on small island where i live. i'm based in small caribbean island.

    Spring, do you actually teach people this from scratch? Often there is too much background info on how these things work, some people only want to know a path to walk from power going in at each point so that they can actually see no power at certain points.
    There are too many people that go through the science, ohms law, calculations etc and some people can’t take it in that way. The easiest way is to see a simple on off type of explanation to a circuit. That’s what you done in this video and I really enjoyed it. Simplified and no long winded explanation. Keep them coming!

    Oké, i sometimes watch these vids , not for a while though, but now this one was in my recommendations, and just bought a second hand laptop to try and fix up. Guess which laptop. indeed an i3 toshiba satelite from 2012, specs not sure, but looks exactly like this one. What to make of that, the coincidence (if it is just that !?) i mean.
    PS It was i think the only one of this channel on there, certainly the first one.

    I owned a computer repair shop for 15 years. I’d say 50 percent of laptop repairs were bad batteries and overheating. Then it would be drives, screens and floppies in that order. We tended to stay away from main board replacements. Most laptops are too cheap to warrant the cost.

    I own an HP9840WS this was the old Compaq with the same number, just before HP bought Compaq. At the time it was the flagship of Compaq. The problem history of this laptop is intersting. I noticed it got very hot (above 100C on the cpu area) and then it dit shutdown by itself. This happened about 10 seconds after the laptop was started. So i replaced the fan and pipe vents. Nothing changed. I replaced battery, same result. And finally i replaced the whole motherboard, and gues what? The problem is still there! I can figure out the second mother board i bought was very likely suffering the same problem. In one case like this , what part of the laptop you would start to look at?
