This was the first thing i did. Nothing helps, the mainboard is dead. I just want to know if there has been similar cases with goodwill, because warranty or not, I didn't do anything wrong and have to pay nearly the same price as for a new laptop just to repair Asus faulty mainbaord.
And of course there won't be any guarantee it wont happen again after i paid a total of 2 k€.
Out of warranty service is expensive when performed by the manufacturer, unfortunately. This is the case for most products. Once the last production cycle has ended parts are not made anymore so new parts cost a premium and aren't as easy to find. Like most companies ASUS products have a limited warranty. If you want to have work done outside of the warranty terms you have to pay out of pocket. To explictly answer your question: No, I have not seen ASUS perform out of warranty work for free, nor has my car's manufacturer, nor my HVAC company. Warranties are limited precisely because companies don't want to be on the hook forever.
Personally I would look on Ebay for another machine with a broken screen and take it to a local PC shop to have the work done if you do not feel comfortable doing it yourself. There's really no reason to have ASUS do the work as they will inevitably charge more than an independent shop for the same work.
