    Alienware 15 R2 LA-C912P no CPU power

    Hi,
    Device is Alienware 15 R2
    MB: AAO21 LA-C912P Rev: 1.0(A00)

    Computer beeps 7 times, meaning "CPU failure". CPU stays cold, gets no power at all. No CPU short, resistance around 4Ohms. GPU voltage seems to be ok. Gate driver on top of coils are SIC632 but I have no experience testing them. Attached the picture with measured voltages, I appreciate any form of help.

    Thanks a lot!

    Check Ram requirements are fulfilled or not?? Consumption on dc supply 01.With RAm 02.Without Ram. I'm assuming ram is not onboard.

      Thanks, checked different modules, all should be in spec. Power consumption stays the same with or without RAM, around ~700mA. Memory voltage 1.2V is present on each module.

        Hi, what voltage do you have on both sides of PL500?

          Power consumption stays same with ram /without ram-this means system is not reading ram. So you have to check voltage on ram slot pins.

          If ram is DDR3-PC3-L
          Pin75/76//1/203/204/126/199/200/202/30

          IF DDR4
          Pin 12/33/75/258//164/254/255/253/108

              Hi,
              PL500 is before PC542, so 19.45V
