<title><![CDATA[Other PC Laptops: Why does my laptop abruptly shutdown?]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>I have post this in other forum such as TH and LTT. I have not yet found an answer.</p>

<p>I have an Avita Liber V Ryzen 7 AMD NS14A8 . This is an off brand from Hong Kong, i think?</p>

<p>Why does my laptop abruptly shutdown, black screen but the power is running and fan is spinning.</p>

<p>Action taken so far</p>

<ol><li>Soft format (Keep Personal File from Recovery Option in Setting)</li><li>Hard format from BIOS screen. Remove everything</li><li>Disabled Fast Startup</li><li>Edit Power Setting From 100% to 90% at Processor Power Management</li><li>Replace Thermal Paste</li><li>Reseat the Display Connector Ribbon</li><li>Unable to reseat RAM because its integrated to the motherboard</li><li>Unable to reseat the GPU because its integrated to the motherboard</li><li>Used external display. connect it to the HDMI (No Signal Detected)</li><li>Disconnected power from the battery because its integrated as well. So i am on AC all the time</li><li>I did the remove batter and hold power for 30 second</li></ol>

<p>Funny observation</p>

<p>When i am on full screen on Warthunder, laptop dont power off. I can play for hours.</p>

<p>But the moment i am trying to watch Youtube or do some work on Microsoft Office, suddenly black screen. The power led is on. Fan is spinning to discharge heat.</p>

<p>HW Monitor records normal temperature range 50c~80c~</p>

<p>The only reason i chose this brand because its offering Ryzen 7 at such a price of MYR2400.</p>

<p>Any advice is highly appreciated.</p>

<title><![CDATA[eMachines em350: Won't turn on unless plugged in]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>New battery installed, but won't turn on unless plugged in. The battery indicator is on when i plugged it in and is in 100 percent. I also ran a battery report and it seems to be good as it did detect it. Now the weird part is when i discharged this laptop a week a ago by removing the battery and holding the power button a couple of times, i left it in for a couple of days and when i boot it up unplugged it worked just fine, but when i plugged it again to charge the battery, it goes back to not booting up unless i plugged it in. If i unplugged it the laptop dies instantly.</p>

<title><![CDATA[AST Ascentia 520i: How to replace the keyboard]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>Now I will show you how to replace the keyboard of a Dell Inspiron laptop.</p>

<p>You have to prepare some equipment including a flathead screwdriver and a new keyboard.</p>

<p>Remember to remove all the peripherals like the AC adapter and battery from the laptop. Don't use a razor blade because it might leave some scratches on your laptop.</p>

<p>There are 8 steps in total:</p>

<ul><li>﻿﻿First, slide two battery-release latches into the unlocked position.</li><li>﻿﻿Next, remove the battery from the battery base.</li><li>﻿﻿Then, turn over the laptop and open it.</li><li>﻿﻿After that, use a small flathead screwdriver to pry away 5 keyboard latches.</li><li>﻿﻿Next, you should carefully lift the keyboard.</li><li>﻿﻿Then, disconnect the keyboard cable.</li><li>﻿﻿After that, remove the old keyboard.</li><li>﻿﻿Finally, reverse the above steps to install the new keyboard.</li></ul>

<p>I have just told you the steps to change the keyboard. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to contact us.</p>
