    ASROCK K7VT4A PRO repair

    Hello!

    I bought this board but isn't powering on. Seller told me it was fine and stable.
    Got it for a dime but it supports NX models.
    Ths cpu it came with works fine and the 2gb are error free (2x1gb).

    I inspected the board many times and no component gets crazy hot, not even lukewarm; no traces are cut or damaged.
    Battery is fine on its circuit.
    The ASM1117 outputs 3.5V instead of the usual 3.3x I saw in many other boards.

    Could it be the problem or is it still within specs?

    No shorts, not with gnd not between rails. ATX is all clear. Maybe I should check ohms too...

    Has a 1.8V AGP 8x only slot, maybe it died because the seller tested a 3.3V gfx in it?

    Thanks for any contribution, even just random ideas (you never know if crazy may help or not ).

    3.5V is as expected, circuit is correctly outputting V.

    It's 1.5V AGP, not 1.8. Typo

      If it isn't another problem maybe it's the SIO.

      Any ideas are welcome.
