hi,

 

im a tecky apprentice at a secondary school (2nd year so i know my way around a system lol )

 

i replaced the charging "port" on my dads laptop two weeks ago and since he has been complaining of it turning itself off. i looked at it this morning and it looked to me, at first, a static on the board problem like some our acer's here and so i set about trying to destafiy the board and no luck.

 

Any ideas? or could it be damage done by myself when when changing the charge terminal? it was a like for like replacement, not a bodge jog haha

 

Thanks guys
