So.. The other day, I was trying to install windows 10. While it was installing, the screen blacked out and it forced restarted several times. After it stopped restarting, it just cleared all of its data... Windows 10 was not installed... So it basically just factory reset itself... I don't want that happening again so I'm just going to keep Windows 8.

Now, to my problem.. The laptop can't play sounds anymore. When I hover my mouse over the speaker icon in the tool bars, it says "No audio output device is installed." I've spent so much time researching a solution but I've finally given up.

Any help is appreciated :)

I've had a look elsewhere online for solutions, none of which worked. I looked at my tablet's Device Manager, and the Bluetooth Radio Properties state "Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems (Code 43)." Nice and vague. I've updated the drivers, and uninstalled and reinstalled the device, but the same error persists.

Anyone got any more ideas?

The keyboard of the t100TA used to disconnect and connect again once a day when moved, but now it just stopped working for good. I first checked the keyboard and other t100s could recognize it fine, I updated the drivers, installed Windows again, nothing helps. I also opened the tablet to see if the keyboard connection had been disconnected, but nothing visible.

Anyone has any idea what I can do? I am not trying to find the part that should be replaced with no success so far...

Any help would be appreciated!

Found an old Asus Transformer Book T100TA laying around at home today - it belonged to my relative back in a day.

Tried to turn it on and it won't - only the amber LED next to the power button would blink.

Wen plugged into charge the device would take 1,76 A out of 2 amps that USB port could give

After a while battery gets insanely hot, so I disconnected the charger. Device still won't power on anyway.

At this point I decided to have a look inside - someone definitely been here before me - half of the screws are missing and I found that all of the caps I marked with red are all shorted to ground:

At the same time the caps I marked with blue are not shorted.

It could be a result of a liquid damage, because I found way too many traces of that on the keyboard, but could not really find anything obvious on the main board.

Just wondering what might be the cause of the short and if it's reasonable to fix the device just out of curiosity

So for the sake of convenience here are the images of the board on both sides:

And once again - I found that caps in the red area are shorted to ground and the ones in the blue are not:

----------------

And today I also found that these caps I marked with red circles are shorted (continuous with zero ohm resistance), so I believe the problem could possibly be one of them.

Wrong - after reassembly I, for one, found that whoever assembled this before forgot to connect an antenna and just hidden antenna wire under the main board, and second - those caps now do show some viable resistance, so I guess they are fine and maybe problem is with some chip.

Well after finding and reconnecting an antenna wire it all started behaving a bit differently - battery did take around 400 mAh if charge and then the tablet even worked on battery power, so battery is fine.

However both on cable and on battery power it only did blink an amber LED and did nothing else.

I kept investigating and found out that it's not the battery that gets hot - it's one of the chips on the bottom of the motherboard - the one marked with red

If we look closer - we'll see that there are two similar RAM chips and they are Hynix H9CCNNN8KTML BRNTM 338A.

Correct me if I'am wrong, but I don't think it's economically viable replacing those since I can't do that myself and will have to pay for the chips and the job to be done.

So let's just mark this as a "no fix" I guess :)

I want to try and load another OS but although I can get into the BIOS to make changes. ( Hold Power Down and Vol Up ) I can't save any changes.. Are there some secret Key presses..

I have tried to connect a USB micro keypad and large keyboard but they are not detected by the Pad if I reboot..

HELP and thanks,,
