How To Know If Your Motherboard Needs To Be Replaced.

Our motherboard is the main part of our computer. All parts are connected on this unit like the Video card, Mouse, Keyboard, Harddisk, Memory, Power supply, DVD-ROM, etc. There are problems that we might encountered if we have a defective motherboard like blackout, date rollback to manufactured date during start-up and computer sometimes won't start. Blackout trouble is the most easiest to detect. Roll back date can be fix easily by replacing only the cmos battery. The intermittent problem like computer won't start this error occasionally misinterpreted as defective memory. 

Other tech usually remove the memory and clean it with eraser then install it back. This power-up problem will be solve this time, but sooner this error will reoccur again. If this things happened many times, motherboard won't start I think this is the time when you are going to replace your motherboard but make it sure that you test the board with good memory before you  act on changing it. If you are working as a technician, you can change the memory but if you are not sure that changing the memory will work you might be criticize of your action. Much better if you recommend changing the motherboard if the problem always reoccur.

Most Common Problems on Automatic Voltage Regulator

Hi there, today my post is about automatic voltage regulator. What goes into your mind when you hear the term automatic voltage regulator? Yes, its automatically regulate voltage, right? So how this automatic voltage regulator affects our computer? Actually this device does not affect computers directly. This device does not speed up our computer but it protects our computer parts from easily burned during voltage fluctuation. Also it provides step down power for devices from Japan or the US. If we live in Asia and plug this devices, this action could be a disaster to this devices. In Japan and US voltages are in 110volts to 120volts only while in Asia most devices runs in 220volts. So, this AVR is not only for voltage fluctuation but also as step down power. So, what are the most common problems of automatic voltage regulator? I have here the list of problems that we might encounter if we have a defective automatic voltage regulator. 1. Defective Plug Defective plu

Typical Computer Headset Wiring Diagram - Barkingmode.

Image
Hello guys, I have today a wiring diagram which I traced the wiring from a cheap headset. Drawn and transferred to a computer to create a .jpeg file. I also, color it so that it will be easier for everyone to analyse the connection. This will help us remember the connection easily if we break the wire unintentionally. Having a wiring diagram connection of plug and wiring will be easier for us. See the headset wiring diagram below. The speakers on the drawing is a symbol and not the real thing as a drawing. Volume and microphone is a real image as a drawing. Only the Left and Right speakers are the symbol on this wiring diagram. You can also identify the location of the left and right speakers in the speaker plug. The mic input in the plug also shows its pin configuration and wiring of the microphone. This will help us locate easily the pin of the speaker in the plug or the mic-in in the mic plug. Last modified: Aug. 31, 2019.
