Afternoon all,
Had a bit of a temper tantrum a few days back n hit my Amilo Xi 1554, hit it to the right of the touchpad, a very very stupid thing to do...
Unfortunately, now when turning on the laptop I get a white screen, on a few occasions the white screen will go and Windows will boot up normally.
Is this an indication of a loose connection, or probably circuit board damage ?
I have taken the laptop apart, and notice that where I hit the laptop is where the graphics card is installed on the motherboard, are there any methods (apart from buying new parts) of testing whether the motherboard or graphics card (or both) is damaged ?
I have removed the graphics card - all does look ok with it, but thats just to the naked eye...
If a new graphics card is to be purchased, I believe this laptop required a card of MXM iii type A - does anyone know apart from that spec, what graphics cards would be compatible ?
Thanks in advance, Vaughn.
