@hrtlsmoe 3 года назад

@@stickboy8219 cuz the battery still have a charge, that literally like it's still plugged in the wall outlet and the mobo has power, it's not smart to mess with the board if the battery has a charge which would cause electric shock or worse just short the mobo, what I have learned is disconnect the battery from the board, and power on the laptop so it can release stored electiricity from the board.

Hey there first of, thanks for the informative video as I have a similar laptop but with a bigger screen (FX705DT), I just want to ask what size of Philips head screw did you use to remove the screws on the back of the laptop, and did you use the same Philips head screw for the removal of screws from the copper cooling thing?

@rickstechrepairs 3 года назад

I'm pretty sure if you use a small to medium screw driver, to remove the screws That should also be ok for the copper cooler

Hi, I am gonna attempt to do this after 2 years of total negligence... but i have 2 left hands and no idea what i am doing. so thank you so much for the walk through first of all. i have a question, you mentioned that there is thermal paste, and thermal...pads? would it be okay to replace those pads with a drop of thermal paste ? Also... my right fan (under the cooling rips) is making dying noises,... if i have to open the fan up to clean it, you have any suggestions that might help ? it sounds like an imbalance or deformed fin, rather than dust. thanks for any help!

@rickstechrepairs 3 года назад

Hi, i would usually suggest to replace pads with pads, as there isn't normally a dead smooth contact, thus to fill the gap you use a pad. If the fan is making noise most of the time its a dying fan(bearings failing)

Thanks for your thorough disassembly video, especially to the location of the wifi card and the repasting you've done. A question regarding the wifi card and antenna because we almost have the same model (FX505DT for me), does the cable for antenna easy to remove from the card ?

@rickstechrepairs 3 года назад

Cheers The Antenna cables are the same connections as all other laptops, they are a little tricky at first but after doing it a couple of times, it will be straight forward for you to disconnect and reconnect

Hey great video tutorial, I have the same laptop and I noticed in the video there's a plastic cover surrounding the cpu at 20:14, did removing the plastic made any difference to the cpu temperature and is it safe? also the heatpipe seems to cover the cpu including the plastic, but does having the plastic against the heatpipe make things go worse?

Hello. I have an asus tuf gaming. With an intel graphics card and a rtx 2060. It is a gaming laptop pc. I was playing one day and had a kind of glitch on the screen. I forced the pc to stop. And by turning it back on, everything worked except the screen which remained completely black. The fans are running. But the keyboard shows a red light. I have tried all the methods of removing the ram sticks, press the ignition button after disconnecting the battery. Nothing works. I know that with an external keyboard and perhaps specified manipulations, one can find a solution. Help me please.
