  1. Topic title should contain: the device's manufacturer, full model and the brief description of problem.
  2. Topic message should contain: the PCB marking code (required in case of hardware repairs), an extended description of problem, things you have checked/replaced/measured, your conclusions and the question. If you are not able to find the PCB marking code, please read THIS TOPIC. If you still cannot locate the PCB markings, please upload a clean, both-side photos of the mainboard - it is required to remove any films, modules or brackets possibly covering these markings.
  3. Before posting a new topic please read all topics in TRAININGS subforum and make a preliminary diagnostic based on the content of those trainings.
  4. Uploading of any complete schematics, BIOS / firmware files or any other kind of documentation, or linking to 3rd party websites with such files, is STRICTLY PROHIBITED. You can only upload the small portion of documentation or, link to BIOS file on UNVERIFIED BIOS FILES subforum, which simplifies the diagnostics/repair. You are not allowed to upload more then one complete page of instruction/schematic per single topic. The file you upload must not contain any watermarks, "confidential" markings, links or email addresses and cannot be password-protected.
  5. It is only permitted to describe one faulty device per single topic - you should always open a new topic for each subsequent device.
  6. Requesting of the full schematics, BoardView files, BIOS files or any other kind of documentation is NOT ALLOWED in this subforum. If you need to ask for any of these, you should open a new topic in DOCUMENTATION/BIOS REQUEST subforum.

In the Bios is possible to identify SSD M2
After booting by an USB with OS when it ask where install OS SSD M2 is not recognised
How can I solve?

Go into BIOS and turn AHCI mode for SATA\PCIe devices - then You do not need any drivers

If You want to use RAID or Intel Optane then there is option for RST/IRST in BIOS. If You have it choosen, then You need to download driver for the disk controller from laptop manufacturer site to have it visible during installation.

This is the link to manual: https://www.msi.com/faq/notebook-1995

Ok
But now SSD M2 is recognized by the bios but boot with a OS USB when it ask whrere install OS no one SSD is recognized
Is it possible to flash bios?

"Go into BIOS and turn AHCI mode for SATA\PCIe devices - then You do not need any drivers"

ok I will try

You do not need to flash anything. If you choose in BIOS to use the VMD/RST/IRST mode, then the Windows installer needs the additional driver to "see" the disk with the use of this controller. This driver is not a part of Windows, it is provided by Intel most often or AMD.

In AHCI mode you do not need to install driver, but also you cannot use VMD/RST/IRST functions such as RAID, Optane memory etc.

In meantime the Machine shut off.
No mosfet issue.
With PSU connected I get 3,2V instead of 19,5
No power on with battery too.
Now motherboard is inside, I have to pull it out it again.

I have pulled out the mobo but no clear signs of damaged components
Connecting PSU always 3,2V

Measure the voltages to ground on pins 1, 4, 5 of transistors PQ23, PQ30.

#27 Re: MSI PULSE GL66 motherboard MS 15811 ver: 1.1 charging issue


by valieromarco 31 January 2025, 17:08
PQ23
PIN 1= 415 k ohm
Pin 4= 177 k ohm
Pin 5= 408 k ohm

PQ30
Pin 1 = 40 k ohm
Pin 4= 270 k ohm
Pin 5= 408 K ohm

19V Line change from 4,30V to 2,65V continuously

I asked about the voltage measurements, not resistances.

Sorry

After plugging PSU voltages are fluctuating.
After 5 min.

PQ23
PIN 1= 3,15V
Pin 4= 1,32V
Pin 5= 2,90V


PQ30
Pin 1 = 2,45V
Pin 4= 2,40V
Pin 5= 2,90V

Inject 1V from the laboratory power supply to any pin of resistor PR330. What electrical current flows from the laboratory power supply in this case?

If the current consumption is low (in the mA range), rise up the voltage to 3V and check the electrical current again.

1V=0A
3V= 0A

The power supply you used to test the laptop is very likely damaged. Test the machine with another power supply.
