We can't fix them all :) 

Sir you make me earn a living you've actually change my standardized of living God bless You

You fixed this motherboard . 90 % of work is thinking rest is work. Good job and thank you for this movie .

Dear, Sorin. Thank you for your video. You fixed the laptop, please dont be sorry. I would like you to fix these kind of laptops, please get an io chip programmer and also make videos about it. I know that you dont have time like that kind of fixing but maybe you can find time. Also about calculating the pin of io chip you can calculate by white lines. Short ones, located by every 5 pins and long ones, located by every 10 pins. Best regards from Turkey.

Even when the board is completely dead, Sorin can still teach us a lesson 👍. Great job master lol.

Sorin Do not be disappointed, electronic work is unpredictable and sometimes irreversible. Today's industry is heading in the direction of repair rather than buying a new device. Thank you for sharing your experiences with us

sir you're the best for sure. much greetings from Tanzania

Maybe not fixed, but definitely a teaching opportunity. Thanks Sorin!

Actually, there is somewhere ic (like TPS51285A) that gives 3.3 regulated (without a coil) for the startup chip and when it boots then it will give 5V regulated and 3.3 and 5 through the mosfets and coils. That is why You can't find it at coils. In these situations better to have schematics :)

I thank you for all the time and it was great to see you find the problem. Don’t be sorry 😐 it’s a way of learning

Finally dead multi controller for change and programming.Dear Sorin, this is very important lesson. Please get or buy programming machine like SVOD 1 or other and shoot video how to programming new multi controller and also for the programming machines - which of them is better for you .This is very important for new laptops. I always looking your videos.Thank you and best wishes from Bulgaria.

Interesting way to follow the faults you are so great Sorin

Fantastic video. Very important to sit and learn. THIS VIDEO CONFIRM REPAIR ENDING

Super good video. This I'd be wanting more. Exactly show you how to detect the error. And show exactly what you measure with the multimeter. Top

Regardless of the outcome, your troubleshooting was BRILLIANT !

Hello Sorin . The bios chip is not inside in the Super I/O chip. Very few Motherboard are like that. If you look closer you can see the bios chip in the right of the second memory ram . It looks like a usual mosfet , but bigger ( Usually they are from "winbond" with a memory of 2Mb,4Mb,8Mb, 16Mb or 32Mb. In the Super I/O chip most of the time is the KBC that could also be corrupt. If the KBC is corrupt there is another way to write the KBC or Super I/O chips with o programmer which comes inside of the keyboard port, If the bios is corrupt you can erase the chip and write another bios, but must be in format ".bin or .rom " usually i get them free from @t. I bought a programmer on usb and repaired some motherboards.Most of the motherboards with the bios chip corrupt power on, but no image, or restart quickly, and some didn't power at all.

i love the way you come out with things sorin " we have no schematic..............we have no idea what is going on " that just about sums up everything ive ever tried to repair ! lol :)

I love his inflection: "let's see what this power supply are doink, Yea"?

one of the best vids you have made dont worry about results!!!

thanks boss i really learnt alot from this advance video repair

greetings from greece thanks for all the videos

Nice one boss, you've found the faulty chip...

thank's for sharing your experience with us!! nice video

With a cheap multimeter like mine there's no even point checking faults like this i got tricked before with false positive thinking everything is short, thank you for sharing

Sorin, ones again, a quick and practic troubleshooting skill demostation! Thank you, and...I think you can fix it, maybe not woth it in investing more time on it.

This is kind of videos i was needed you Sir to do..it happen today to your side coz to me i have already met with this kind of motherboards and i gave this information to my customer and we found another I/O and successfully repaired the board......Much thanx for a video ...from +255 ..Tz

Thank you , we learned so much things ...

Sir, you r just too good.

I did repair these sort of thigns between 2001 and 2006, and when the IC is not doing well, we did order a new, and depending the price of IC, the whole board is replaced. Replacement of that medium IC is a tough job, even for an experienced mechanic. The span is because I took an education that almost no longer exist.

thanks everyone is learning

You only checked one side of the motherboard and the 3.3 could be on the other side. I have seen 3.3 being shorted by bad keyboard . But the video was good and full of informations!

that's called learning from A to Z

Sir, pls make volume up for buzzer...i can't hear the beeping well...thanks you Sir....bc everyday i m learning from you, Thanks you Sir

sir, i think you have to buy a programmer like RT809f, Rt809H for bios Programming. Because now new genration mother board comeing with Same I/O mostly.. But it was great video for learning..

de cand asteptam un asemenea videoclip cu problema aceasta

Thank you Sorin. I have been wanting to find out how you deduce which pin on super IO chip is the 3.3V rail. Whether you knew from experience which pins or otherwise. Today I learned otherways and otherwise. :)

Useful video 👍

Sorin thanks for sharing your experiences. One question: how can we recognize programmed super i/o chip from other that they aren’t ? Because in other video you can replace super i/o chip from other motherboard or new one purchased. Thanks for reply.

Finally new model. I'll watch and learn it later. big like for now

Thanks for sharing. Another awesome video! Can't wait for another

Sorin, You tryed your best, it would cost too much to buy an identical pcb with a good chip. Not worth it!. The problem with the super io chips is the pins are defined by the code loaded into the chip, so only the power and switch on pins are the same on every use of the chip. Most of the pins are code function programmed :-(.

Use the RT809F device to program programmable EC's KBC like ENE KBC9012QF. The programs you might acquire it in the web. To include BIOS programs.

Ah , I hate the moments like this one , when you feel defeated by the problem, I guess now it's time to find a video with HP bios programming .

glad to be here.. thanks sorin.. 😎

Yay I learned something new. Thank you sir.

Man, Glad you've made this video, i have the same goddamm problem on a ASUS, when a start making tests, i had 3.3 on the BIOS, hopefully this one, the BIOS it's outside the ICio, but now, probably i've hit some pin that i've shouldn't and no more power on the BIOS, anyway, I'll track the 3.3v on the IC, like you've did, or maybe even replace it, and i will post back, thanks for the knowledge!

Great logical analysis along with great comment: "I'm dead!"

Great video! Thank you

Thanks sir for this nice video

Very interesting Sorin. Thank you. But, I will search eBay for this chip, maybe, already programmed? Did you?

You did all that u could .thx we learned a lot . And if u like put More video.

The main thing is you found the problem! A replacement super io chip could be found i bet, but time is money for you. We gain more knowledge which is always a benefit.

Admire ur skills in finding the shorted chip

Great video, thank you Sorin. One thing I didn't catch which I/O chips are to be programmed and which not, how to recognize those?

Good lesson thank you so much

I have a question - why do you check 3.3V on the caps, but not directly on the pins of the I/O chip?

sir you are the boos for computer , you can make your own super computer.

I have an Acer Aspire 5733-6696. I cleaned the fan, the CPU and applied fresh thermal paste. It works great. It has 4 GB of DDR3 RAM. I was wondering if adding 4 more GB RAM would help to operate programs. I see the CPU running at 100% some times RAM at 80 to 90 % it doesn't max out the RAM.

Thank you for this good lesson. I never thinking that i can remove a pin on Super I/O chip. You give me a courage and another way to play with motherboard, thanks a lot. Greеtings from Bulgaria. If you have time I have one question- Laptop HP compaq CQ71 issue - When I plug the charger the light on charger port turn on, but after few (10) seconds turn off. When I press the power button laptop do not turn on. I check motherboard - 19V and 3,3V(on bios chip, sio chip, power button) are present. Any ideas

You don't have to count the pins. Every 5 pins you have a white line mark.

Thenks for video

Actually this was really useful video. Indeed you can't fix them all... the question is..how much should cost a super IO programmer?

Great work, very good lesson. Very interesting, if you replace super I/O, do hardware reset, super I/O finds cmos memory is blank, does super I/O have a generic bios image that can load USB bios image?

Thanks for your videos. If anyone can help me with my problem I will be thankful. My laptop does not charge while I'm working on it, it actually charges for a few seconds then it is stopped charging, but if I close it it's charging.

Thank you

wow! come to Besiktas Sorin!!! You have bad superior chip face...in this video...

good video thank you

Wow! nice job!

What am i missing??? If Sorin got the 3.3 volts by breaking off acouple pins on the super I/o chip, why doesnt the computer work??? I super I/O chip shouldn't be shorted anymore after he broke off the pins right? Explain to me

Sorin, stii ce as fi incercat eu (de dragul experimentarii)?Sa reconectez toti pinii de la super IO mai putin cel in scurt si sa vedem daca porneste.Oricum FELICITARI pentru toata munca depusa!

I have done an replacement of this ic and I thought that the replacement ic is already programmed, unfortunately needs to be reprogrammed. The laptop starts but no display you can only see the fan spinning but nothing more. We will love if you can show a method to program the chip .

Plz upload desktop motherboard repair video

What if both the 19V and 3.3V Power rails are okay but still no power and the DC Port light doesn't glow, what can possibly be the problem? please help

I was wondering why don’t you pull board and check for liquid damage that faces keyboard ?

Good job! 👌

How about the replacing the whole motherboard instead of replacing only chip?

Salutari Sorin astept si eu o rezolvare cu startupcip sa stiu ce ai facut pana la urma cu placa de baza, asta e o lectie pe care eu o vad foarte folositoare pt mine, eu sincer nu ii dadeam de cap

Every day I have a problem with this type of disc damage. The customer is often dissatisfied because the equipment could not be repaired.

Thenks may frend your the best

Very nice sir Sorin Btw schematic i/o this board or hp Y23 same i/o chip

Hi All, what is the black wire connected to the ground on the mobo? Is this the negative wire from power supply? and sorin set to 3.3v? Thanks all.

Dear Sorrin, Greetings from Hellas. Is there any chance to watch you in a video repairing desktop motherboards? I think it's more difficult than laptop but that's my oppinion. Thanking in advance.

how can we make sure that the bios is inside the Super I/O chip ?

Greetings from planet Earth

Thanks u so much

Had same board with similar issue, no power from EC and no schematics are available... I couldn’t be able to fix it as well... Can’t blame Apple this time ;-)

26:47 The pins are actually marked... LOL.

May have a jtag or another way to get programmed

Sir i have a problem in my laptop.. laptop on but no display .. i have litte bit idea in electronics.. you can help me to repair my laptop... Power on .. click sound come in spekers

I have an accer laptop it get charge but nothing comes on screen and the fan is not working, what problem will it be? please let me know.

Tell the customer they need a new motherboard

What tester do you use?

True...

R. I. P

Try booting through a USB My Laptop is the same try putting a hard drive plugged into a USB socket if you have a HP lap top plugged into a Mouse dongle and an other backup drive and remove them when the laptop is turned off the next time you try to start the PC it won't power up unless the USB is plugged into it even a printer or a USB Hub can do it the drives begin to load the problem with HP laptops is not so much the hardware but the software that lets them down even at start up the signal must go through the possessors and not just directly to the power rails ??

is nice video sir

love you.

lol can hear it pop when u applied the power

can you use another motherboard use the usb set the bios and put the chip in that board
