I did a thermal cleaning and reapplied thermal paste for a HP ProBook 455R G6 laptop. The heat is designed well and can be taken off with just four screws. It is also separate from the fan, which makes it easier to take off. Reapplying thermal paste was easy and made a big difference. Fan was running all the time before and now hardly at all after the paste was replaced. #repair #service #laptops

I have a number of customers, usually with gaming laptops, that have had motherboard failures. I'm thinking that circuit level repair could potential fix some of these. I do some soldering, but this kind of work is outside of what I currently do (not opposed to learning new things). Do you know anyone who does board level circuit repair on motherboards? Have any recommendations? #repair #tech

I enjoyed reading this blog post about Void Linux. I learned quite a few things that I didn't know before, including that Void has a way to install .deb packages from Debian (and derivatives).

On a Lenovo IdeaPad 3 laptop, I had to disable VMD in the BIOS in order for the m.2 nvme SSD to be visible to Windows. Odd. I wonder how it got changed. Or perhaps the previous Windows installation had set up RAID and it needed VMD enabled. Not sure. #Lenovo #Windows

This repair was a success. I followed up with the customer a while afterwards and she was very happy with how it turned out. #repair #jbweld View quoted note →
