ASUS ROG Ally X - (Handheld Gaming PC)
Model No: RC72LA
Serial No: SBNVKD001014459

Hi all, I've spent the past week digging through the forums and guides to try correct my foolish mistake of changing hidden settings while tinkering around, and to be honest my heads overloaded so I'm hoping you'll be able to help.

I used a tool called 'Smokeless-UMAF' to access usually hidden settings in the bios. I tweaked one or two 'safe' things but made the mistake of tweaking a setting relating to the USB ports. Since then it won't boot and sticks on the ROG logo despite...

Is there a time limit to when / how images uploaded to the internal server are governed?

My uploads from around December last year are gone? Is badcaps forum going under?

Hello
I have power adaptor(220V/input, 12V 1.2A/output) which has symptom of fluctuating output DC voltage between 11.5V-12.2V.

I measured DC voltage between negative and positive pin of the largest capacitor(400v 10uf) and it was measured contant 300V.
I also measured ESR value of all capacitors and I noticed that one of capacitor(KMG 16v 470uf), which located in the secondary side, have high ESR value(10 ohm),So I replaced it with same specification NXH capacitor....

Hey, i bought a Dell Optiplex 5000 8fc8 with chip W25Q128JVSN.
I also used the CH341A programmer but my usb cable (i didnt attach it directly into the pc, i used a cable between) was corrupted. So i made a dump. Then i removed the password but unfortunately the dump had a loose contact so it was corrupted. And i've also overwrited the chip and now i dont have any dump anymore.

Can someone help me? I am stuck since hours and i cannot find any bin file anywhere.
I tried to extract the EXE for BIOS installation from dell and also the rcv file but i didn't manage to do that....

Apologies to everyone on the forum. We had to upgrade for security reasons with the previous version of vbulletin. Unfortunately we had made so many customizations that it has been a true nightmare to get back up and running.

More updates to follow...

Good day.

I'm posting this to help other people.

If you have a Vigor AP with some kind of a software issue or just with an unknown admin password and disabled reset button, here is how you can flash a fresh firmware.

Download the firmware from the vigor's website and extract it somewhere.
Download TFTPD64 or other tftp client with file push.
Connect to the unit with an ethernet cable and set your client IP address to 192.168.1.10 (just not .1 or .2).
Start TFTPD64, go to tftp client tab. Select the server interface with the above IP and...

Hi all,

I have Hisense H55U7B TV with no picture, only big vertical stripes. I did several tests and I'm not sure, where is problem.

1. Connected tcon to 12V, white, red, green, blue, black picture visible in cycle on full LCD without error
2. Connected only left side of LCD to tcon, big stripes
3. Connected only right side of tcon, visible normal picture on the right. Working as expected.

Where could be problem?

Tcon RSAG7.820.7932/ROH
Main board RSAG7.820.8698/ROH
