Hi,
From two completely different customers I received two Lenovo Ideapad 3 17ADA05 laptops on the same day with the same problem:
- Screen turning black all of a sudden and not being able to get out of it without a battery reset.
- Showing artifacts.
The above happen either in Windows or in memtest86+
The RAMslot's pins have been reworked to be 100% tight to the board.
I opened one of them and disabled the on board RAM. The problem remained, so I changed the Sodimm in the RAM slot. The problem remained.
Is this a fluke or is this a known trend? If it's not the RAM, is it the lines between RAM and cpu? Is it the cpu?
I'd like to find out.
