What is a motherboard

A DEAD DEVICE IS NOT E-WASTE YET

A motherboard is present in every powered by electricity device. So technically every device can be fixed.

If your laptop will not turn on at all, or you smell something burned or melted, it could be because of a faulty motherboard. Many device owners assume they need to buy a new laptop when this happens.

But in most of the circumstances a motherboard can simply be repaired by removing the broken component.

Your MacBook motherboard for example is a complicated piece of circuitry which forms the main hub of your computer. Everything your computer has is connected to the motherboard. In order to work normally the motherboard communicates with peripherals to using memory, to sending data to your screen, to charge your device, to press the power button for switching it on.

Motherboards repair to be successfully need 2 good
steps in advance. Troubleshoot of the device and a good hand in micro-soldering related with the best equipment.

1. Motherboard problems are tricky to diagnose and fix

The difficulty aspect of a motherboard problem is that when something is wrong with it, that problem can then trickle down to many parts of your device in unusual ways.
The only way to reliably isolate the problem is through a careful process of elimination which takes time and know-how. Fixing a motherboard is also quite time-consuming because everything in your computer needs to be stripped out before the motherboard can come out. A highly
knowledgeable nerd (like us!) is typically your best bet for accurately
diagnosing and fixing a motherboard issue.

2. They’re surprisingly fragile

Because they’re such a complicated piece of electronics, many different
variables can put a motherboard out of action. Electrical spikes and surges are like motherboard kryptonite. Pet hair, dust, and other foreign objects sucked into your computer by your fan can also do all kinds of damage to your computer’s motherboard.

3. Hardware chip replacement process

Motherboard are made at high temperatures (390 degrees) so ones identified the faulty component after the troubleshooting process, needs to be de-soldered and replaced with exactly the same component. Leave this process to experts 🙂

This is why if your computer does have motherboard problems, it’s really
important to go with a nerd you can trust. If you are experiencing all kinds of weird device failures we recommend you talk to us.
