So I recently acquired a 7th iPod Classic with a dying drive and bad battery. I’m planning on replacing the drive with...

Cleaned the fans out? Replaced the thermal paste? Don’t know if it has an air filter, but maybe also clean that out as well. Good luck!

As far as I know… the only safe way to remove ransomware is to either pay (which can’t guarantee your data) or wipe the drive (which nukes everything, including the ransomware. Good luck!

Loose/nonexistent screws holding the home button in? Open it up, see if there’s any obvious signs of looseness.

I assume you have fuel, and that the car starts. Is it when you press the gas down? Because if so, it’s something to do with the throttle system. Maybe a bad/faulty pedal position sensor, something in the wiring, (hopefully not the engine computer), or the throttle body just not doing its job.

I’d suggest giving the paste a year or two. Most thermal pastes have a life of around 3-5 years, depending on the heat they’re dealing with. Most laptops have the heatsinks facing the bottom, so replacement is easier. And if it’s on the other side (like Apple devices; ugh) then it’s a !&&* of a time replacing it. Just be careful, don’t take risks, and you should be fine! Good luck!

If you’ve changed your display recently before, chances are you no longer have a water-sealing gasket and adhesive, which probably means water got into the display (or even worse: under the chips) Could also be logic board, given that the phone fell into a literal lake. I don’t know exactly how to fix it, but it’s worth a Google.

Probably not, they appear to change it every generation. There doesn’t seem to be enough information on the device either, so best of luck to you!

Sounds like the internal power supply blew it’s top! Maybe check the PSU and see if there’s any burnt components (hint: it’ll probably be black) If not, check for any debris under all boards. Good luck!

1234? 0000? Not helpful. This also seems like a stolen device.

Uh no. It uses proprietary connectors, so it won’t be do-able.

We’ve always got modders to do that.
