    Faulty
    « on: June 18, 2022, 01:25:35 PM »
    A teacher asked me if I can repair her personal laptop, it's a Asus X200M Netbook. The first thing I noticed was the damaged cracked screen so I replaced it with a new one. Then, I replaced the battery because it was not charging and it was making a sqeaking noise which I thought I was the Hard Drive but it wasn't. The CPU fan wasn't spinning at all so I snipped the blue wire so now it spins (working) including changing the CR2032 battery on the motherboard. I checked the videos on Youtube for this model on why screen wasn't working and I've tried every method including HDMI cable on TV and nothing shows up on the screen.

    Would be it best to buy a motherboard? Any advice or suggestions will help. Thank you :)

      A faulty fan sensor, not charging and no video output - sounds like a faulty motherboard.
