This probably wasn't smart. #minipc #pcrepair #techrepair I FORGOT TO MENTION that the ch341a programmer I used has a flwa in that it doesn't work correctly when not using the 1.8v adapter. When it's supposed to have 3.3v on the data pins, it actually has 5v which could cause issues when working with 3.3v chips. There is a mod, or you can buy version 1.6 which is built properly. This https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCURRdjIBFE8TDJlPOuiob3Q video explains it much better than I could. ► https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7_mnuuXyPiI ch341a I'm using (has issues when using 3.3V but can be modded; works fine on 1.8v) ► https://amzn.to/3ZMn9Js --------------------------------------------------- Music (in order): "Hardware Haven Theme" -Me (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FwD2mOYDPNA) "If You Want To" - Me "CRENSHAW VIBES" - GARRISON (https://soundcloud.com/garrison-brown) "VULF JAMS" - GARRISON "The Butterfly Nose" - GARRISON "Sunshower" - LATASHÁ(https://soundcloud.com/best-music-pro...) --------------------------------------------------- Gear I Use: (affiliate links) ► Camera - LUMIX G7 https://amzn.to/3LmfGdk ► SD Cards - SanDisk Extreme PRO https://amzn.to/3BPXrd1 ► Capture Card - EVGA XR1 https://amzn.to/3Bn8qt7 ► Studio Lights https://amzn.to/3BnYrUd ► Microphone - Shure SM7b https://amzn.to/3BP0TEB ► Interface - Presonus Quantum https://amzn.to/3QVeX3T ► Teleprompter https://amzn.to/3BxcN50 --------------------------------------------------- Timestamps: 0:00 Intro 0:24 What's Going On??? 1:12 Testing System 1 3:00 Testing System 2 3:51 Testing System 3 4:30 Disassembling System 3 7:40 Testing RAM 9:24 Interesting 13:38 Diagnosing System 3 15:45 Disassembling System 2 16:40 Trying RAM 18:51 Disassembling System 1 19:20 Trying RAM 20:35 Status of all RAM 21:34 Swapping CPU 1 into Sys 3 28:50 CPU 3 into Sys 1 32:00 Recap after some work off camera 33:44 What could it be? 34:27 NOT THE END 34:50 "I did some messing around" 36:40 Flashing System 1 as well 37:14 The Results
