It's stuff like this that sets you apart from the others Sorin. I know how it is; for most of my life I lived in a place where we had to improvise and adapt for many repairs because that was in most cases the only option. This is as REAL as it gets.

Its a +0.75VALW power supply. IC chip is SY8386RHC. If anyone wants to verify, motherboard model: LA-J481P

I'm from country that can't use ebay, in order to get IC i have to order from china and it take 2month at fast to get, this kind of way to fix thing are very inspiring for me, thank you Sorin.

Sorin, you never cease to amaze me with how your mind works. You get stuff working that most people would give up on.

absolutely unique repair . everyone else would say cant be repaired . Sorin setting new standards of excellence and achievement today.

These videos are teaching the way things work. Only through repairs like this one will you understand exactly what is happening and why. Love it!!

This is one of my new favorite of your videos Sorin. You solved a problem. Restored operation when 99 out of 100 Technicians wouldn't even consider doing what you did here. Masterful. This is proof that when you say unrepairable, it's really really bad LOL. You are the first person I want around if we ever get stranded on a deserted island! Well done. Very well done. 73, de NZ5i

Sorin simply flexing how he truly understand each component and how it works, and using it to make device comes back to life again. In a perspective of a beginner, it's brilliant and amazing.

Thoroughly enjoyed this video Sorin. Not dodgy, innovative. Thinking outside of the box. Good work! Thank you.

hello. ive been a computer tech/programmer for over 28 years. and i love the way this man does and explains things. your amazing.

I knew what you were looking in the drawer before you took it out😀😀, Sorin is not dodgy is resourceful. Great job.

the problem is the space where you put the module is for the only ssd nvme available, thank you mr sorin for sharing

Dodgy Sorin, that's the content the community expects! Excellent service!!!!

This folks, is a master at work. Brilliant workaround! 😉

Well done Sorin! You are a good spiritual friend!

Fantastic repair!

This is beautiful, thanks Sorin, great job!

Bravo Sorin, another practical and entertaining Fix/Video

Sorin, I like your "Dodgy" repaire, becouse it is genius! You are greate! Consistens and professional and never, never , never borring

for so long ive watch sorin tutorials and vids now i mimick him the intro when repairing laptops in my own hehe

The circuit is SY8386RHC from Silergy

Great fix Sorin, theres nothing dodgy about getting something working with an alternative circuit, especially when the component is unknown or unavailable, i love your work man ✌👍

Thank you sorin this video is so tricky, may God bless you

FANTASTIC!!! I would happily use that laptop with my only meager suggestion being to add a little hotsnot to the new power supply and the wiring to keep it in place 🙂

Salut Sorin, te urmaresc de ceva vreme si chiar mi-am pus intrebarea daca esti roman, ma bucur acum ca am aflat, spor la treaba in continuare!

Genius . Come the apocalypse Sorin will be the only one fixing stuff.

Sorin, you are amazing, you surprise me every time, the Romanians try to fix everything because those like us learned that way, let's make it work

Sorin you amaze everybody, we enjoy all of your videos 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Necessity remains the Mother of Invention. Now and always. We wouldn't be here without it. 👍🏻🖖🏻

Sorin, that's impressive! Thank you for your work :)

Hi, I say it is a good repair, just adding a different DC to DC converter (power supply) as a source for the 1V. One point though. The free space you used to place the PC board looks like the place for the M.2 NVME hard drive. You need to keep this free for the hard drive, you just have to find another place where the PC board would fit.

W O W ! this one is an incredible cracking hardware system sir ! im Amazed totally 😮

Nice bodge sorin. Kept another laptop out of the landfill 👍

a good way to demo the properties of the workings of what you are working on

You are genius Sorin

Love the frankenSorinstein repair. It's great to think outside of the box and if we're ever in an apocalyptic scenario I can see Sorin like that go to DIY repair guy in a community repairing anything and everything with whatever he has laying around to just get the job done. Again, love the FrankenSorinstein repair and the critical thinking outside the box. 👍

Sorin the surgeon...love it..Dr S !!

Much love Sorin. From Nigeria 🥂🙏

Great Job Sorin, better like only change the chip. Many Thanks

That was brilliant even though it is still so hard to me to innovate like solutions. Hopefully, in some day I will be capable of executing such solutions.👌👌

A very good repair there. Thank you.

It was actually really good repair. That's reverse engineering at its best. Well done Sorin i would probably do the same if i couldn't find the chip to buy or i had to repair it fast.

Great video and great work!!! I'd love to see more like this :) Thanks

master sorin you’re a genuis!👏

Sorin that is a master class and I am more than impressed. Spot on about poor countries and short of money. Here in the West we need to pause think out of the box with pros and cons before reaching the critical stage out of habit.

brilliant for me. you can see the experience and knowledge.. 🖖

Awesome job Sorin ;)

Toujours au TOP M Sorin!!!!!🤣🤣🤣

sorin these are real fix i love to bypass and jerry rig everything

The legend is working

Brilliant work-around for missing 1v supply. Especially the enable voltage from the BIOS. Not a bodge, re-engineered, beating the manufacturer at their own game. Who cares what that 1v supply chip was? 😀❤

great repair, the issue is with manufacturers eliminating and basically not caring about protection circuits on the main power rails and mosfets to save $$$ and MAKE more money selling you a new laptop. Your repair saved the laptop from going to the landfill and becoming e-waste, something these big corpos claim they care about, but you are the REAL environmentalist!

One word: Genius !

thanks Sorin!!!

Manufactures made our life harder ❤

Excellent job done❤❤❤❤❤

Great job but the customer will be surprised when he realizes that there is no place to put the M.2 ssd because Sorin "found" lot of space for his power suply :).

Hello🤝I'm glade to see you again🤗great modifications👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👋👋👋 P.S What happens with coffee time?

Sorin , nice fix,

Good job ur an amazing genius thanks for video u make my day

Champion. I love this..

Nice job as always but where are you going to put the ssd when you have the psb on its location?

Nice one! One problem solved. Now you have to solve the storage problem, seeing that the laptop has only one m.2 slot.....🤔

aaaaah ooh I do Salute you Sorin

Pure thinking outside the box 😂, the only problem is the ssd space, sorin you need to get smaler buck converter boards 😅 Love your videos, greetings from Portugal 🇵🇹

boot device not found because no ssd has been installed. you placed the circuit in the ssd slot space :p .... maybe you need to re-placed this circuit to other place or use mini size ssd . but grate job sir. love you from Bangladesh.

respect man and i have ask can i replace ic charger chip on acer nitro is the same blowup and replace like this ?

Haha I have done things like that before with my friends laptop, the 5v is missing and i do the trick with that step down module, the exactly the same module, and the laptop still work until now

This types of ic are from Silergy-Corp. I think that this is a SY8386RHC

Sorin strikes again !, I can imagine the head of a guy in another repair shop opening this laptop .. after a time.

Nice work around! But how about when it is working on battery ? Is the 1v kept stable ?

You're a genius, HP are muppets. Great job Sorin.

Nice one 🎉

they made that patent for usb to prevent all kind of dust etc filling usb ports. smart idea.

Awesome!

Ummm... you covered up the slot where the ssd woould go, with the adjustable psu?

Hi Sorin, how are u today. 12:07 it’s common when we have a little component and it doesn’t have enough space to write the real name of product so ,alternatively, they use some codes

How has nobody commented that the power supply is put in the m.2 hard drive slot? The laptop is fixed, but where will he put the hard drive? Maybe he can get a mini m.2 and glue it to the board. LOL love the fix nonetheless and watch all your videos Sorin.

Hello Mr Sorin. Can you tell me which reference and where you purchased the universal plugs including cord for connecting the different brands of laptops to their power input port. I see that you have a special plug for DELL, HP, ACER, etc. Please return your answer. Best regards and thans in advance. Andy.

I admire to you sir..

sorin, just a question, where did you exactly injected the 1volt? in the coil?

Hello sorrin. Where did you solder the enable wire for the after market power supply. Was it on the enable leg for the EPROM and the other end of the same wire, was it solder on the vcc of the bios

Hi it is 0.75VALW and the chip is SY8386RHC

Once is a 1v power supply, could you get it from an existing power supply of the needed output, like for instance ram, or even pcu power supply?

i love dogy.amazing video.

Very clever

Hi sorin, if it is possible in your next video kindly explain how did you modify your charger and connected it to your Dc Power Supply ? thnx

this kind of knowledge is very important and valuable to us,cause I am from third world country

hi sorin you have place that additional power supply to nvme slots then how if customer need to install nvme now ?

very nice

Lol crazy repair 😂😂😂 brilliant thumbs up 👍👍👍👍

Hi! Can I ask what size copper wire you are using as I have some but its diameter is 0.1 which is too thin?

My question is how do you put the hard drive back in with the power unit in the slot?

So what happened with the first laptop in this video? Mine has the same problem as that one so I need to see the fix 👍

well done sir,but where is ssd m.2 drive you put the power supply from the m2 drive area?

You used pin 8 of the eeprom??

Obrigado!

Please make a video about the first laptop with a bios problem as well, it should be very interested to me at least Sorin, one more question. Can I just remove the coil ?

Great repair,you should be made a genuis🎉🎉🎉🎉

Oh, the slot for the ssd was used for the adj power supply, will the nvme ssd will fit again?
