ProBook 4720 s: s ProBook 4720 graphics card problem

Hello

I just notebook, with processor i3, 3 GB ram, Ati hd 5470. Dual boot Windows 7 and ubuntu.

A few days ago the screen goes black. After several blind reboots on a button and after a few hours of cooling all the same.

Then I connected to an external monitor via hdmi, but the same thing, nothing on the screen. After that I connected via vga monitor and get a picture. But when I boot on windows I get blue screen. After I start in safe mode, and delete graphical control panel, I can boot win 7 normally and after the discovery of the graphics card, then initialize again end with blue screen (maybe reinstall windows). Ubuntu seems to boot ok.

My question is if I can replace this graphics card? If yes where can I get one? New or second-hand.

But if I'm stuck and I can't replace this graphics card can anyone recommend something new (screen 17 ", i5) HP?

Do not replace the whole motherboard. Both types of systems integrated and discrete video, will be the video chip directly soldered on the motherboard. There is no separate card to remove and replace. I need your budget to make a recommendation. I guess that you are willing to pay a prize important enough (+ $ 800) to buy another laptop business type?

  • Qosmio G40-10 s: graphics card problem

    Hello.

    I have a Toshiba Qosmio G40 laptop 10s with a Nvidea 8600 M GT grafixs card. I was playing a game when it locked up and pasted what I would describe as flashing red/green 'Matrixy' search screen.

    He then a blue screen and trys to reeboot.
    He tries to start windows, but once again the top matrix. If it loads to the top, it is in 16 bit color with red dots all over the screen.

    I am sure that the GPU is fried... and I was wondering what I can do? It's been 5 months out of warranty now.

    I read on some forums that there have been a lot of problems with this Nvidea card... Is there anything I can do outside my warranty period with what there is a possibly faulty card in it from the beginning.

    It will cost a lot of money to get it repaired, but its too good a laptop to let go to waste.

    Any help is very appreciated.

    Hello

    You also have these lines on an external monitor?
    If so, there seems to be a graphics card problem and it must be replaced.

    These overheating problems also occur if you use the nVidia display drivers directly. Toshiba drivers are pre-tested and don't overheat your system.

    But I think you need professional help. You should contact an authorized service provider and talk to the technicians. They will help you! :)

  • S HP ProBook 4530 video card problem

    Today, I bought my new laptop - HP ProBook 4530 s with i5 and radeon 6490M. Unfortunately, after I installed windows 7 64 bit on it (as it came with SUSE Linux). Now, I can't do my 6490M work. Only the embedded video works. Can you tell me what I need to download drivers? I tried everything on the ati site, but it tells me that this combination of OS and video card has no driver available.

    At the same time I noticed that many of the same series probook laptops are sold with windows 7, so it seems illogical that there is no driver available. If this is the case that I must return the laptop - I won't need it if there is no way to use discrete graphics under windows.

    Hello:

    You cannot use the drivers from the ATI site for your switchable graphics. They work only for laptops that have only the ATI graphics card and no other additional.

    You can install the graphics driver HP laptop with switchable graphics.

  • dedicated graphics card problem

    Hi all!

    I have a HP probook 4530 s and after 2 years of using the dedicated graphics card (ATI Radeon 7470) seems to have a problem. I was playing my game, which is a flash game based on chrome and suddenly the screen frozened. I use by default the ATI graphics card because the system supports switchable graphics. So, after this screen frozen, I turned off my laptop and after I turned once again he doesn't want to go through the screen of windows welcome. I went into safe mode, disabeled ati graphics card and after I restarted again, I could get properly into windows. A funny thing is that after that, I reinstalled windows and the first thing is to install the graphics driver. After clicking on restart my laptop frozened again in the Welcome to windows screen.

    Can anyone help me please with this problem?

    Thank you in advance.

    Try from the BIOS, there is something that you can uncheck it from the BIOS and it will work exclusively on the second card, of the processor.

    The thing is that I found the problem and it is verry annoing. I disassembled my laptop to renew the theat conductor paste and I saw that the old spent was melted by the heat by the graphics card and drained on certain components close to, and I know that this dough is a conductor of electricity now so bye bye dedicated graphics card.

  • S Dual of the HP 4530 graphics card problem

    Hi guys!

    So here's the deal. I bought my laptop HP 4530 s 5 months ago and it was working fine until I started to play games. Since it has dual graphics (Intel HD 3000 and AMD Radeon HD series 7400 M) he only reads integrated graphics card (which is an Intel) and no AMD, I tried to download and install the drivers for the graphics card, AMD and it says 'unknown material', but I know it's there because the pilots were showing that I have dual graphics card , but since I have recently updated from Windows 7 to Windows 8 this problem has happened and I don't know how to solve this problem, Please HELP!

    Please see the HP ProBook 4530 s Notebook PC - Driver and software downloads page of Windows 8 drivers for your computer. If you downloaded the drivers from AMD, these will not work because the drivers are customized by HP to support switchable graphics function. Install the provided HP AMD Video Driver and control panel Windows 8 should solve your problems.

    fix the element even though it may probably be placed on the logic board.

    This unit is considered difficult to repair, with a capacity of 10' 3.

    {A few 'real' armories can repair these boards and the original maps.

  • HP Pavilion P6 2055sc: Cant enter BIOS because graphic card problem.

    Hey!
    So for the moment, I try to turn on virtualization, I m able to boot the computer into windows but do not enter network boot (anti-spam f10 key before the HP loading screen) but because of the past problems, I struggle to get into the BIOS.
    It all started when I got a new (Asus Geforce GT740) graphics card and this caused my computer not being able to start, without forcing in the network boot.

    But like I said, when im trying to get into the BIOS, it gets to the screen where it says "Press Escape to access the Boot Menu" which, at that time, it ignores when I press ESC.

    I tried holding it, I tried all the keys F1 - F12, but nothing makes a difference, so im wondering if there is a way for me to get into the bios and work around this problem.
    I looked for so updates to the BIOS, but I couldn't find one so far.

    @alilleland, welcome to the forum.

    The reason for which the computer would not start with the GT installed 740 is, it requires UEFI in the motherboard instead of a standard BIOS.  If you always use the GT 740, I suggest to withdraw to see if you can enter in the Boot Menu.  You can do that by typing the ESC key as soon as the computer begins to start.

  • Satellite X 200 - 21R - graphics card problem

    Hello

    When I start my laptop Satellite X 200 - 21R, there are three successive beep (3 x) and the screen is black.

    Apparently, it's the graphics card NVIDIA 8600GT DUAL SLI, it is defective.
    It is a montage of special graphics (SLI) card with 2 x GPU 8600 connected in parallel.

    If I disconnect the connection in parallel (unplug the two cards) and I can only connect one (to find the card that is dead)?
    It is possible and it is functional for the laptop?

    Thank you for your help

    To be honest, I can't imagine if it would be possible...
    Generally, any change of material must be accepted and supported by the BIOS and as much as I know any GPU changes would affect the BIOS as well as the features of the laptop.

    From my point of few to get the workbook, you must use exactly the same GPU chip, which was built in the laptop... but this seems to be a very expensive affair

  • The Portege S100 graphics card problem?

    I have a Portege S100-S113TD, and I was watching a youtube fullscreen video, when the screen went suddenly full of horizontal lines and the laptop became unresponsive - I had to physically hold the power button for about 10 seconds turn off.

    Now it turns on but I only have a blank screen - it is the graphics card?

    If so, can anyone suggest where I can buy a replacement graphics card?

    The current one is a nVidia GeForce Go 6200TE 64M / 128 M 6600TE - I tried looking for one, but perhaps they are now obsolete.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello

    > Now it turns on but I only have a blank screen - it is the graphics card?
    It seems that Yes

    But you are able to test the laptop with an additional external monitor?
    If possible, connect the external monitor and press Fn + F5 to check if something would be visible on 2nd screen.
    If photos on 2nd screen would be visible, then the GPU is OK and only your internal display is faulty.

  • HP-15r033tx: graphics card problem

    I buyed new hp-15r033tx of the Amazon, it says 2 GB graphics card but when right click-> personalization-> advanced settings. It shows only 64 MB.

    Hello

    Your laptop uses Nvidia Optimus.

    On this type of system, the Intel gpu is always used to render the final display, regardless of whether or not the discrete Nvidia chip is used for the treatment chart - that's why you see properties for the Intel chip for the display device.

    For more information on the functioning of this type of "Switchable" graphics technology, see the white paper at the following link.

  • On the Satellite 5200 903 graphics card problem

    Deploy a 5200-903 Toshiba Satellite. A few days ago, I have a problem with the display. All scratches and other
    unknown elements on the screen. It's the graphics card (FX GO5600). Read about it in other forums.

    My Question: Is it an embedded chart? And what do you think, is it profitable to change the broken component?
    I mean if the graphic is on board, I have to change the motherboard together.

    Thank you very much for your answers!

    Hello

    It's look like that there is a problem with a graphics card. Can you check connection of the external monitor to the laptop?
    The graphics card is integrated into the motherboard, therefore, you need to replace the whole motherboard.

    It is quite expensive, and sometimes it is better to buy the new computer

  • Qosmio G40 - 10F - graphics card problem

    I bought my laptop in 2007 and now have a problem with the video card 8600 m GT (vertical or horizontal lines show and get a message on the GPU).

    After reading a few similar posts, I think I have to replace the motherboard, rather than just the graphics card.

    Can someone help me, because I'd like to get this operational return.

    I send the computer to Toshiba yesterday but I need feedback because a repair. If the same graph as problem could cost to repair?

    Anyone know?

    I think that no one here can help you. Either is defective graphics card or screen may only.
    In any case, if the GPU is defective, it will be quite expensive.

    I think you should contact Toshiba service and ask what is the result of the diagnosis and how much you have to pay for the repair.
