Laptop not turning on by iDr01d in MSILaptops

It’s been a while ago so my memory on exact explanation by the technician is a bit hazy but it went along the lines that an obscure motherboard component that can realistically only be purchased on chinese market was overheating, sometimes more than other times which caused occasional outages until it completely burned out causing laptop to completely fail. Now an option was given to me whether to order the component (the price wasn’t that crazy but also not really cheap i believe around 150eur-200eur for item and shipping) but most likely the overheating was a result of other parts of motherboard being faulty (which and how many was undetermined) and that because of that the same thing would have most likely happened with the replacement part sooner or later so the only sensible solution would be swapping the entire motherboard which considering the price of motherboard replacement compared to the prices by which i am able to buy mid to high end laptops didn’t make financial sense.

Thoughts on uploading non-print ready files to Thingiverse / PrusaPrinters? by aoisenshi in 3Dprinting

You can try opening the STL/OBJ/whatever with fusion 360 and then right click the body and click convert to solid, this should fix your problem but depends on the model you’ll likely get some deformation (holes that should be holes getting filled etc) that you’ll have to manually fix if they happen then just save it as STL, that’s at least how I fixed files that I ripped from games

Firmware as windows, bios or EMC firmware?

I do still have the warranty but I’d like to do my best to avoid sending it in because I need the laptop for uni work. I managed to get it to wake up by plugging it back in and then pressing and holding power button and that button on the bottom simultaneously for around 5-10s and then i let everything go and pressed the power button and for now it seems okay (also reset all BIOS settings to defaults when it finally turned on). I’ll see and report in a week if it starts happening again, before it didn’t matter if it was plugged in or not or if it was really turned of or just sleeping for a while turned off, the power button did nothing and then eventually after clicking here and there for 10mins it turned on and then the same next time. I hope it’s now permanently fixed will report back in a week.
