Motherboard Problems
Recently, my MSI GS65 Stealth began stopping charging after calibration. The technician suggested it could be due to a charging port issue, but today they hinted it might involve the motherboard. Should I go ahead and replace the motherboard or the entire laptop?
It depends on the specific issue with the motherboard and how the technician approaches it. If the whole board needs replacing, it will be quite costly due to the price of new replacement boards. For minor problems like a faulty solder joint on the charging port, it should be a simple fix. The technician can provide a cost estimate, which would help clarify the next steps.
If you need to cover the expense, the price to swap the motherboard is likely similar to replacing the whole laptop. It’s worth verifying whether it’s still covered under warranty and reaching out to MSI for a replacement if applicable.
I think the issue is likely with the battery rather than the motherboard. I’d bring the laptop to a more trustworthy repair shop or consider sending it in for proper fixing.
He also mentioned you’re receiving a return voltage, which is typically a warning signal.
Recently my MSI GS65 Stealth stopped charging after calibrating the battery. They told me it was the charging port, but now the repair person suggested it could be the motherboard. Should I fix the motherboard or replace the whole laptop? The repair guy replied he’ll test the voltage again after fixing the charging port. I’m really unsure what to do.
I mean I clarified your question and explained my actions. Then I asked what you meant and what I did next.
