Paschez: Hello. This issue is entirely related to the motherboard. We recorded 60%-80% success rate fixing this issue on older models. However, the game changes with newer model PCs as the electronic circuits become more and more integrated. In these cases, a change of motherboard is not to be overlooked. *Cheers* ---------+------------+------------+-----------+--------------+-------------+---------------+--------+------------+---------------+-------------+--------+--------+ Would you mind a free checkup?

Razak5:Where are you located actually and do you have the batteries.Am serious by the way. I have built and desingned circuits before extensively so am not a novice o if that's what you think. I just need the batteries and I will do the rest as long as the batteries meet the voltage requirements. |

Nuel182: Hello Nuel. I would have suggested checking the memory sticks (RAM). But since this doesn't happen when you're working on the computer then let's skip that part... Another thing I would have considered is updating the graphics driver. I would. Un-install the current driver and see how it behaves. If you've tried this and its still same, then skip this part... If this shows sometimes, you should back-up your data and re-install the operating system. You should do this ASAP- otherwise, a time is coming (not so far from now) when this will be an everyday affair and you may not be able to use your OS anymore. Also, a hard disk change my not be imminent. But it is worth considering. *cheers* |

nurez305:Before I go ahead with my suggestions, chances are 1 . You've tried the "turn on metred connection" and you probably didn't find it... No! I'm so sure you didn't find it or it didn't work. 2. You've also "disabled" auto-updates. Why is the word, disabled in quotes? Because that main download still goes on in win 10. *let's now move on... You're going to try one last thing- tweaking the registry So, here we go > Press Win key+R > in the run box (I need a better name grin), type "regedit" without the quotes. This opens the registry editor. In the registry editor, Navigate this path: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\NetworkList\DefaultMediaCost Right click "DefaultMediaCost key" > select "Permissions" > this takes you to the security tab. On the security tab, click "advanced" button. Click the "change" button next to "Trustedinstsller". In the "enter object name" box, type Administrators, click the "Check Names" button to make sure you're typing the correct object.Click OK. On the "Advanced Security Settings for DefaultMediaCost" , check the "Replace owner on subcontainers and objects"Click Apply > OK. On "Permissions for DefaultMediaCost" , select the "Administrators group" , be sure to check the "allow Full Control" box . click Apply > OK. On the DefaultMediaCost key, there are different entries, including those for 3G, 4G, Default, Ethernet, and WiFi with their default data values: 1 or 2. data value 1 means that the connection type is non-metered, data value of 2 means that the connection type is metered. Double-click the Ethernet DWORD (32-bit) Value key, and change the value to 2. *Do same for Wi-Fi. >>>restart your laptop <<< This explanation I just gave is Modified from an article on windowscentral treating the same issue. I must say it saved a lot of my Internet data. So before you contemplate a downgrade, consider this registry tweak. *Cheers* As always, if you ever find this a bit techy, too long , holla here 09082687404 ...I'm on whatsapp 1 Like |

U1: Does Razak5 or anyone else have an idea of what could be wrong here, please? |
Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by Razak5(m): 8:06pm On Feb 10, 2019 |
U1: Hello. Let me guess, thus is HP 2133...right? Ok. 1. If there's any blinking capslock key, then trying another RAM isn't a bad idea. Removing RAM and putting it back isn't enough to rule out RAM issue. You should test with another known working RAM. 2. If the above isn't the case, then there is likely an issue with the VGA. Sadly, whatever fix that will be rendered is highly temporary. The mother board goes for 15,000 to 20,000. Do remember also that 30,000 can still get you a decent mini laptop. Or, you might want to upgrade and ditch this mini talk altogether. *Cheers* Modified: Is there a blinking cursor on the screen? If no, then I'll also rule out booting process. Another thing you should do is pointing a torch to the screen, do you see anything? If yes, there's a high chance that the LEDs are gone and your screen will need changing... This is an after -thought though. But hey, they are thoughts afterall. 1 Like |

Razak5:thank you so much bro for this excellent DIY tutorial. I was able to get it all and restart my pc after i finished as you advised, but the problem still persists because I noticed that, what was been charged by chrome browser and other applications on my system does not correlate with what was consumed from my WiFi. The reason I am this worried is that, I bought the laptop as UK used late 2017 and hardly will I finished 20gig in a month after browsing with it days and nights but now it takes less than 30minutes to consume 1gig of data now which is getting me to be more worried. I have tried all I could to spot what is consuming the data I couldn't find it. All what I will be seeing is how my data is reading very fast even without using the browser or any application on my system . Just now I notice os speedy driver trying to connect to internet which I uninstalled immediately but I don't think it is the cause of data consumption. After I did what you advised me to do now , I connect it to my WiFi and the consumption is still the same. Please what else do you advise me to do or is it normal to consume data like that or should I just format it and start afresh again because I'm already tire with the rate it is consuming my data now. Please help a brother on a solution. I'm in Lagos thou Thank you boss |

nurez305: What version of win 10 are you using ? To know, simply Press Win key + R. Then type winver in the box. |
Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by udemzyudex(m): 3:17pm On Feb 11, 2019 |
U1: First of all you need to confirm if the motherboard is working fine or not. In a case like this, you have to check if fault is from LVDS section (screen) or motherboard section. To confirm you need to press the caplock, connect your external keyboard and press the caplock or numlock button, if it off and on at interval then it shows your motherboard is working fine and display is coming which means u have to focus on the LVDS section but if not you have to check your motherboard. The first thing do if you find out that it's from motherboard is to change your RAM,if you change RAM and still no display then you check if your CPU is heating up after power on, if not you change ur CPU and check (some of this mini laptop uses on board CPU) and there is nothing u can do unless u have a bga infrared rework Station. If you change CPU and RAM but still no display, then it's chip level fault. Only a chip level engineer can fix it for you. 1 Like |

acedsportsng: How many minutes does it stay before going off? Well this is something you can't fix unless u see a technician. It is definitely a motherboard issue. |
Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by udemzyudex(m): 3:27pm On Feb 11, 2019 |

Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by U1(m): 6:43pm On Feb 11, 2019 |
Razak5: Thanks, bro. The CAP key light isn't coming on - even an external keyboard won't. Does it mean the system is fried? I have not tried another RAM yet because I don't want to buy another. What becomes of that if the laptop is now completely useless? That's why I'm reluctant about this. There's no blinking cursor on the screen and a torch didn't reveal anything. What actually happened before this issue came up was that the Window logo remained on the screen, which looked rather gibberish, on startup. I decided to restart the notebook and that's it. udemzyudex: Thanks for the response. The CAP LOCK key light didn't come on at all. The other steps sound more technical for me. Man, does it mean the mini has given up on me just like that? It's likely I'll have to cannibalise it if it's going to cost more than 5k to fix. |
