Chosen Solution Nothing is working so disconnected the motor now the lights work with music. So I assume the motor is no good , is this so and can I get a replacement motor. It could be that the motor or gears are jammed, in which case the stalled motor will take a heavy current, dragging te battery voltage down to a point where the lights and music don’t work. If you disassemble it you should be able to see whether the motor spindle turns freely or whether something else is jamming it....

Chosen Solution I have an older medical system that uses multiuser dos 7 gold. The HDD is going bad so I’m cloning it to another HDD but upon booting it comes up with ibmbio.ldr missing or bad. From the reading I’ve done you can’t clone this system because the ibmbio.ldr and other system files are location specific on the drive. Is there not some program I can run like rebuildbcd within that multiuser dos environment so that it updates the mbr to its location and therefore fixes the boot stup?...

Chosen Solution I recently disassembled my old Nexus 5 just for the fun of it. I came across a part and I am unable to figure out what it is (I attached two picures - The part I mean is the small hole next to the headphone jack). I am probably just not seeing the obvious but could anybody help me out? A friend of mine said it is an IR blaster but I checked and the Nexus 5 does not have IR....

Chosen Solution When I go to unlock my GS5 the phone makes a strange a weird beep noise that lasts a second. When I play music the music stops for a second then continues, except when I am playing it on bluetooth speakers after I unlock the phone. Is it a factory reset issue or something more? Hi, Check to see if you have got the Screen Lock Sound enabled. Go to Settings > Sound > Screen Lock Sound The Screen lock sound sets the device to sound when you lock or unlock the touch screen....

Chosen Solution Randomly this evening my iPhone 6 Plus decided to end its existence in some sense. It was working perfectly fine prior to me going outside for a smoke. I came back inside and the screen had gone black and the back light was turning on and off repeatedly. I initiated a hard reset because the power button was not responsive and after that there was nothing. I plugged it into my PC to see if anything could be done in iTunes but it required me to enter the password from the phone that was dead....

Chosen Solution So I have a MacBook Pro 13" Unibody back from 2009 and I need to replace the battery. I already know that’s the problem but Apple wants entirely too much money to fix it. They say it can’t be manually replaced but I have my doubts. I just don’t see why not. If anyone knows a way I can replace the battery myself for cheaper then they’ll do it let me know....

Chosen Solution greatings I have recently aquired an early 2008 24" Imac with what i suspect is a dead nVidia 8800gs card … a search of ebay indicates that a replacement card is pricey and likely to fail aswell (diag led 1 and 2 light up, 3 flashes once and stays off after, 4 stays off) no chime unless video card is removed I am thinking of what i can do with the hardware the screen looks functional so getting a controller board and using it as a monitor is an option the logic board does chime if the video card is removed so in theory i may be able to get it to boot ?...

Chosen Solution Hi, I’m living in Germany but I bought the PS4 on the release in the USA. My warranty is not accepted in Europe. When I press the startbutton the blue light blinks for a second and the PS4 turns off. Just can’t start it. I guess, the Power Supply Unit is defect. My question: Can I replace the Power Supply Unit with the old one of the PS3? Or is it just possible with a new PS4 Power Supply Unit?...

Chosen Solution I just got an LG G3 from Ebay, so it is not under warranty. I noticed that the power and volume button pad on the back of the phone doesn’t work. When charging, the phone charging light comes on and tells me that it is 100% charged, but I can’t get the phone to actually turn on. Can you help me? I had a similar problem with intermittent dysfunction of power and volume buttons from a used eBay LG G3....

Chosen Solution My bedroom fan and our living room fan are normally both very quiet. But, when the heater turns on, suddenly the two ceiling fans sound like helicopters. What is going on?? It’s ridiculously loud — like it wakes me up from a dead sleep. @brokenxrecordsx , So is it the aircon when turned on that is causing the fans to go noisy or the hot water system when heating the water?...

Chosen Solution Hello, I have an iMac and bought Parallels Desktop so I could play PC games on my iMac. I didn’t realize that my iMac could not handle this much memory. The games worked to a degree but I then stopped playing them for a while then tried playing one again and it crashed. I tried restarting but my computer wouldn’t boot no further than the spinning wheel before you see the blue screen....

Chosen Solution Dear ALL, I would be grateful if I could get some advice on how to fix my favourite Russell Hobbs toaster. I used it last morning and while I was toasting bread, my son suddenly touched it on its sides with a steel fork while it was still toasting. It suddenly gave a spark and my mains went off(meter tripped). Later, when I tried to switch it ON it did not....

Chosen Solution It stopped spinning a few days ago during the rinse and spin cycles. The water still fills and drains but when it should be spinning, it just makes a clicking noise. We’ve had this unit for ten years and it had a previous owner before that. We’re trying to decide if it is fixable and if it is worthwhile to try to fix or if we should just invest in a new machine....

Chosen Solution I just replaced an old Fridgidaire dishwasher with a new Fridigdaire Gallery model. The old dishwasher was working fine for years and then recently started to hold water at the bottom. After I replaced it and ran a cycle in the new model - the same thing happened. The dishwasher did not drain. I checked the new hoses and all of the new parts look fine. I disconnected the drain hose to the disposal and discovered its tightly plugged....
