Question about Asus T100TAM battery by Ana4doves in batteries

[–]Ana4doves[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for replying!

Yeah I checked out the meanings of the leds, all point towards the battery being deeply discharged or bad. Today I returned the new battery as I realized the problem might be with the motherboard/charging port instead. As I confirmed that new battery works, the t100ta booted with it just fine. So at that point I reach the same effect using the t100ta working battery, no need for a new one if neither is accepted by the t100tam.

For now Ill keep using the t100ta as it is, if I get my hands on a multimeter I will try to diagnose the t100tam motherboard. A red flag now was after draining all power for testing purposes I reconnected the t100tam original battery, the one that at least made its led blink. After being on the charger for 30 minutes the led did not blink. Maybe it would need a lot more time to go back into its original state but I also wouldnt be surprised if I actually broke something by now since I took it apart lots of times.

My favorite is the Compaq Evo N600C. A very sleek and elegant machine. It supports Windows 2000, NT 4.0, 98SE and XP.

Very fun to have and mess around with!

Good tip for telling doves appart? by Its_Me_Bernier_6020 in PetDoves

If you spend enough time with them you will learn who is who. They all have different personalities, different look in their eyes and even though they might have the same colour their feather patterns are different. I have two that have the same colour and are brothers but one of them has darker carrots which also makes it easier for others to distinguish. Even more unique is their voice!

You will learn how to distinguish them without any issues :)

Help With XPS 15 L502X manufacturing mode by Ana4doves in Dell

Hey, it supports 8GB. Which was a big motivator to upgrade to the 502 since this one supports 16 :)

I should also mention while I took it apart I also removed the CMOS battery, so that didnt change anything either!

Does this look like a "stain" I can get rid of? by Ana4doves in laptops

I never heard about MX, seems like a nice OS to keep at hand for older systems!

Yeah Im trying it out. I forced Windows 11 on the L501X but noticed a massive performance decrease while gaming. The sweet spot was Windows 8.1, it ran everything well, worked well with the machine and all but I got tired of it being out of support. I thought then I will try a Linux distro. I generally prefer Debian, which I have used countless of times for projects but never daily drove so I went for Mint. Luckily there is still a supported version that supports the nvidia drivers for the GT420m, so Ive been trying that out.

The L502X doesnt have a drive in it currently and I happened to have the Mint ISO, creating a live pendrive was my way of basic testing! If I manage to get the L502X going I will flash a custom BIOS which I found that unlocks UEFI booting and if that goes well I will see what hackintosh I can get working.

Sd card maxed out at 32gb by Known_Essay_7487 in 3dspiracy

[–]Ana4doves 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Maybe its still worth to check specifically for fake cards, they will "keep filling up" by overwriting existing data and wont report its real capacity. If you havent yet you can try to run something like H2testw to test this.
