Got another job order from a seaman yesterday. He wanted me to check on his laptop with the ff. specification:
- Fujitsu-Seimens Laptop
- AMD Sempron
- 1 GB DDR2 (2 x 512MB)
- 80 GB HDD
My diagnostic on the PC was its motherboard got a problem. The PCs condition when I first turn it on were:
- Power LED turn on
- HDD LED turn on for ahwile then got no response
- No POST Beeps
- No Display on the LCD screen
So, I suggest to the client that I will just bring the unit so that I can open it and visually inspect the components inside.
At home, I open the back cover and I was able to access the areas on the memory card, wireless adapter and the CPU. The first conponent I tried to check was the memory card. I removed the 2 cards then turn-on the PC and I still cant hear any beep codes. I tried to insert another card and nothing happens. When I tried to swap the two cards, I got a positive results. The PC turned on and enter its Windows XP operating system. I had just confirmed the defective memory card so I replaced it with another 512MB to have a better performance.
