Asus Vivobook s14 - Repair attempt - Never seen in a laptop 3 shorted power rails :D 

Actually it doesnt matter weither it's a fail or success, what matters most is the way to approach and diagnose a board which personally I'm rreally grateful to you for showing us the proper way. Thank u Sir, it's always a pleasure watching ur videos.

Now I don't feel so bad anymore. My failed attempts is also more than the success attempts. But I love your videos and learn alot from them. Keep up the good work

For me these fails are no problem, i will sell a new laptop or a new board for the customer.. But a proper diagnose is key.. thanks to sorin.

Yeessss 4K video. Thx Sorin.

That's Simply fair play and honesty.. Thanks Sorin.

What a doctor.

i love your fails, it helps me to let go in to repair all of them , 'you can't fix them all' , ty Sorin

Nu toate luptele pot fi câștigate... Pierzi, câștigi... Negustor te numești ❤

i inspired by your work mate!

Thanks!

Nice video but where did the 1,5 hour long, interesting fault finding videos go? I miss them so much.

very good job

A few failed repairs make all the other successful repairs even better. 😀👍

Hi Sorin , like the process ,very clear on diagnosing the fault. As I have said before the EUROPEAN union should insist that all laptops are fitted with sockets for processor and graphics, but thanks for the Video regards Jim

I think a fail is when you break it more than it was broken. Fixing stuff is like a drug, when I fail to fix it it depresses me.

Sometimes you learn more when you fail, thank you

Imagine if the CPU was socketable and easily replaceable 🤯 Imagine if the southbridge wasn't built into the CPU silicon 🤯 Imagine if this entire overpriced laptop/motherboard didn't have to be replaced because a single component failed 🤯 🤯

Latest videos always starts .... "We have a niiiceee laptop" 😂

very good

Hello so we are back! and this time we have a nice laptop 😄

thanks for your videos. I think there is a reason why they used to separate cpu and chipset.

i like You so much! supersymphatic!

I would recommend using the thermal camera to tell if the components are get to hot to fast from voltage injection. I’m noob but seems smarter. The components look like they get hot really fast when you look at it that’s too aggressive to me when you can lower voltage and wait 10 secs more.

Its not a fail for me you already know what is the problem the CPU is dead you just need to have BGA machine that we have here in PH. You can actually reball the CPU and resolve the issue. If the reball process will not resolve you need to replace the CPU with newer one with BGA machine. If you have the machine tool and other equipment any laptop you can repair. by the way good job. Thanks for the video.

Commander plz start sharing laptops schematics how to follow them from A to Z plz

Your failure list will be higher, computers coming to you usually come after someone has tried the easy fix!

I say that statistic (failed collection) says much about the quality of these products nowadays

Мне нравится выражение: когда dead- значит можно починить, а когда dead dead, значит точно сдох))

Sorin , what is the root cause of PCH dead? Generally it was due to shorted mosfet etc.. How is that?

Not the CPU that is defect but THE CHIPSET.

You could replace cpu from donor board

Thanks for the video, I see a mistake, we should not put the thermal paste on the PCH, cause the CPU will transmit heat to the PCH.

Hi Sorin, I had a question who do you display your power supply and Multi-meter on the the computer screen can you make a video about it. I'm also buying you coffee for making so many helpful videos.

Come to Beşiktaş...Sorin...

where have all the laptop screws gone

The motherboard companies now make mostly if not all embedded cpu where they use to be the sockets and change the CPU out for another CPU - not anymore

You didn't fail its the cpu who fail 😄

👍👍👌👌

Sorin: Never seen in a laptop 3 shorted power rails... Asus: :D

Why everytime when cpu goes bad or chipset is done? You cannot just switch the cpu from the spare board?

Sorin which xintai camera is better HTI-301 like gun or HTI-301 for mobile phone on USB-C? Why you now using this like gun?

Go and change the cpu :) I found some good seller of used cpu in china and like that I can save more laptop :) and you can save more too if the customer pay ;)

is that intel 11th gen? what is causing PCH dead? thank you master

Why this happen?

Why not removable processor

It’s is time to short something and make it work😂

Noice

CPU Reball ???

can someone kindly make me have a visual diffrence between the cpu,gpu and the pch,,,,honestly i always guess which makes my work more hard,,,thanks for the video

At least you work fast. I've watched vids over 1hr with the guy faffing about, only to see a fail - ouch -, ie, if it's a fail, edit the vid to the main points.

this is the third time i see a burned chipset integrated with cpu. something wrong in this technology

Dear Sorin, I'm a bit disappointed. This time while i was watching and learning, also putting my daughter to sleep, she did not went to sleep...she was like "what? No fix? What?". We are together very sad about this with you. Together we suggest to buy chips from china 😂😂😂

Can't it be fixed by swapping components from the same donor motherboard? Asus must have had many laying around in their e trash can. :)

dead is good, dead dead is bad

Hello🤝👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏👋👋👋👋👋

Some hot glue will fix is all 😄
