Hello,
I am a simple guy, with a simple life. Nothing much to say for now.
I was searching for information on bios password removal and found this forum that seems to be a great place to learn things.
Thanks for your expertise!

Hi everyone.

I’ve used the knowledge from this forum to save a few TVs already, though have finally run into one that requires electronics knowledge I do not possess, so here I am!

Hello everyone,

My name is Robert, I have been doing IT work for over 12 years. I have been getting more interested in doing more hardware level repair of broken electronics, fixed my own 4k TV a few years ago when the screen started blanking out more and more often and in that case I had not known about this forum and worked on it just using what looked to be bad which turned out to be a handful of electrolytic capacitors. Since doing that I have been trying to do more of these repairs and am looking to start looking for more faulty items to fix and may start selling the repaired items. Once I get more confident in my ability to troubleshoot the hardware and repair the items and get parts I want to start doing it as a business to prolong the usability of devices.

Cześć

Z zawodu, jestem mechanikiem samochodowym. Kłopoty ze zdrowiem, nie pozwalają mi już pracować w tym zawodzie. Chcę nauczyć się czegoś nowego. Bardzo podoba mi się elektronika, jako mechanik miałem z nią już styczność. Może wiedza jaką posiadacie, pomoże mi w osiągnięciu tego celu.

Re: New Members - please post your introductions here

As this is a brand new forum, I thought I'd open up a thread to encourage new members to introduce themselves a bit.. now hey.. let's not get too personal.. ok ?

And if you wouldn't mind to keep this thread "clean" let's try to keep the the chitchat (i.e. even the welcome to the board replies) to a minimum or this thread may get to 100 pages fast

So I'll start things off :hello to myself my name is John.


My name is petabyte and I'm a forum junkie. :oops: I've been off the wagon for a number of years and countless times I've tried to stop but it's useless.. I need to feed my learning addiction.. :!:

Now just a bit about me.. I'm a fairly secretive guy in terms of privacy on the net.. especially when the things you write are visable to anyone with a net connection. But I love to share the info and knowledge I have, so that's why I'm here, to share and learn.

my formal education is that of an electronic engineer and I held a field service position with a firm for over 20 years.. that job is gone now along with company car and laptop <cry> oh well..
So needless to say (but i will) I've always tinkered with things.. yes, a hacker.. (too bad that term lost it's orignal meaning) a hardware hacker mostly.. hacking fixes in whatever I find that breaks.. (except for cars, I have friends for that) I got started a little late into the computers, my first box was an ibm pc-xt with a whopping 10meg HD,blazing fast 4.66mhz 8086 processor, 640k mem running dos 3.3.. man was I cool back then.. :roll: nevermind..

so these days, I'm forced to be a software guy as well.. as I fix pc's for friends and that usually means cleaning virus/trojan/adware and reinstalling OS's.. yeah hardware breaks but not that often :cry: so as a result, I keep up on my software knowledge by visting a few security forums.. and trolling around a few hardware forums as well.

now I found this place from a thread at motherboards.org/forums
where I've been hanging out lately.. it's a nice friendly place with some pretty smart people.. mostly, of course, it's about mobo's.. So this person mentioned badcaps.net and I recalled reading articles a year or so ago about the faulty caps and was curious as to what you guys were up to.. and I said "w00t.. they have a forum"..

and so now.. you're stuck with me :John

so what's your story ? come on.. give it up..

hello
