Re: New Members - please post your introductions here

Hello. o/

I am new to forums in general except for reddit.
I don't really know how they work or proper educate.
I am a small type technician that has recently starting fixing mortherboards.
I have soldered in the past with HDMI ports on game consoles, charging ports on iPads and DC jacks on laptops.
I just recently discovered my first real repair on a MSI gaming laptop, identified a shorted mosfet and I'm trying to expand.
I don't know how to create a post and I am looking for someone who can help me with my newest problem. I have a motherboard I would like to request some help on. How do I format the request properly?

Any and all help is much appreciated!

Hi guys, just joined your lovely community. I found this place when I was searching for board drawings for laptops.

Hope to have some fun here as well as learn more about computer electronics and sharpen my electronics skills.

Hello,

I'm a professional electronics repair tech that focuses on pro audio gear in my "free" time and industrial building automation systems for my day job.

I'm in Louisville, Kentucky.

I've joined a few forums over the years, but I've yet to find one that was truly great. I came across a thread on this site that blew me away with how knowledgable everyone - including the OP - was. I'm looking forward to being involved.

Howdy,

As the handle indicates, I've been at this game a while. As in my first project's breadboard used real wood, screws, and Fahnestock clips. Back in the day when debugging a circuit meant poking your galena crystal in a different spot. Vacuum tubes? What, were you born with a rich daddy?

My first computer was built by wire-wrapping the RCA 1802 CPU to a few other ICs. I programmed it in machine code with toggle switches. Back then it was understood that "core memory" was a reference to a maze of wires and tiny ferrite rings acting like transformer cores. I couldn't afford a surplus minicomputer memory board however so I had to make do with one of those newfangled CMOS memory chips and a battery. As my hands kept cramping up I developed my first real program for the 1802: a custom monitor (the ancient ancestor of today's BIOS programs). Getting a hand-wired circuit to accept hexpad input and drive a surplus calculator LED display, now that was programming! Putting my code into a 1702 EEPROM made me feel like I was ready for a job at RCA.

So yeah, pretty old.

My computer expertise has (somewhat) progressed with the times, but I haven't worked professionally in electronics since the 80s so there may be gaps in my knowledge. Hopefully this forum will teach me a few things. I've noticed over the years that diagnosing a problem is harder when you can't count on flames and smoke to provide a clue.
