Hi everyone. Glad to be on this forum. Lots of good info. So I picked up a cechh01 which had ylod. I took it apart and replaced one nec tokin on the non gpu side with 4 capacitors. I tried it and still ylod. I delid the gpu and cpu carefully without scratching any of the chips. Reapplied mx4 and turned it in. I got a green light but nothing on screen. I tried booting into safe mode, got the beeps etc still nothing on screen. I removed the hdd and still nothing. The controller keeps blinking. I get the hdd light blinking upon pressing the power button but then it stops blinking. I took the capacitors i put on off the board and tried it. Same thing. Glod. My guess is I'm not soldering the capacitors on right or I'm shorting something somewhere. Or maybe I messed up the repasting after delid. Any suggestions? Has anyone removed a nec tokin and tried booting. Do you get ylod or glod?Thanks in advance.
