<title><![CDATA[Dell Inspiron M5010: My dell is having big problems!]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>My laptops motherboard (CN-0HNR2M) is having problems.</p>

<p>When I push the switch button, it starts working, but after 30 seconds it shuts down automatically.</p>

<p>I then dissembled my system and applied new thermo paste on CPU, as well as new thermo pads on GPU, North and South bridge chipset. but nothing has changed!!</p>

<p>I disconnected the yellow cable of CPU fan so it works at the highest speed, but GPU is still HOT, and the laptop shuts down like emergency. I think there is some kind of problem of any little resistor, or capacitor as the GPU appears to be getting to high a voltage and that's why it gets HOT (between 70-85 celsius )</p>

<p>So what can i to do ?</p>

<p>thanks a lot</p>

<title><![CDATA[Dell Inspiron M5010: Dell laptop backlight only works when I press/bend on motherboard]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>So I've finally isolated my problem with my Dell inspiron laptop. The laptop itself is about 7 years old and pretty well taken care of. About 2 years ago it started having the issue of the backlight dying out, getting progressively worse over time. I eventually stopped using since I graduated.</p>

<p>I thought the screen was the cause but it seems to be a motherboard issue. I first discovered that if I bent the board (lightly) in the corner where the screen cable connects to the motherboard, the screen would illuminate.  I thought it might just be a short or something. Then I checked if pressure cause somewhere else in the board was the fix and this seems to be the answer. My guess is a capacitor or something but I'm hoping someone with some more experience can provide a more concrete solution.</p>

<p>Some videos to show my findings</p>
