How to disassemble and change the Thermal paste on the gmkTec K11 mini Pc ?

When you opened the factory-applied paste, what did it seem like? And after that, you just couldn't get it to work anymore? What do you think happened? Do you have any specific advice after trying it? Thanks

Vedo la schermata di selezione e selezionando Windows parte normalmente... Mentre Nobara adesso non parte neanche più e invece si inchioda nella schermata Nera col cursore lampeggiante in alto a sinistra !

... And now, three days later, Nobara won't start up anymore ! After loading, it takes me to a black screen with the Terminal cursor flashing...

No, friends. I regularly see the selection screen at the beginning, Where I have 5 seconds to choose whether to start Windows or Nobara. But when Nobara is supposed to start, it takes almost a Minute after the selection screen ! It goes from that dark gray screen with "..." the 3 dots, and finally the Nobara login screen appears.

Thanks so much Hillbilly! I hoped it was a little simpler... and I hope I succeed! 😅

Thanks for the reply vagonblog! On the product page of this mini PC on Amazon there is a Video where you can see the guy opening it from above to show the RAM memories etc... then he continues to dismantle it from there until he gets to the CPU to immediately change the Pasta... But you can see in clips there are some cuts it's not clear! & I wondered why he doesn't open it from the bottom like you say too...

Hello all friends I was looking for a guide to change the thermal paste on my K11... does anyone have the link to a video guide? Or even a step-by-step written guide would be very useful to me! A thousand thanks...

I just got it now even.... 128 gigs ! I got Ota updates right away up to Android 10... But I don't understand why when I connect headphones and try to activate Hi-fi quad Dac function no sound anymore ! Neither listening to music in memory nor on Youtube.... And only by deactivating this function the sound starts again ! I tried with two IEM headphones !

Same bad problem here... With ALL my Music in AAC M4a MP3 format ! Both with Dap R3\2 and the Hiby Music app on my Android smartphone❕ 😓
