it had probably been fine with own beginner forum for those who can not so much (me for example) that has just started with motherboards.
Have not seen schrematic or touched a soldering iron before (have tested and seen a little more now)

however as popular proverb which says: there are no stupid questions only bad answer :p

I would say there are some things that I need to know as someone coming from through hole soldering and is brand new to micro soldering, and logic board repair. We have a whole section on tools but what about all the parts you need to make a great repair job possible, like new resistors, new chips, and the such.
So yeah we should have a beginners section.

For board troubleshooting, ask anything you want here! We will always try and provide an answer. Regardless of what I name the forum duke will never sound like a customer service rep for the Bellagio hotel, it is against his nature.. and hell, mine too. :) We're not trying to be mean, we just want to motivate people to see what we see and come to conclusions themselves while guiding you. But seriously: always ask!

We do expect some basic electronics knowledge from people before they come here(how to measure voltage, how to use resistance mode on meter, what a capacitor or resistor is etc) and Duke and I have agreed that we don't want to go into teaching that on this forum.
