MSI 280 R9 possible Dead of arrival?

Chief complaint: No video signal from DVI/HDMI from card. After installing catalyst, windows will blue screen at login until MSI R9 280 card is taken out of the PCI slot
New build with MSI R9 280, gigabyte GAB85M-D3H mobo (compatible with my card),  PSU XFX TS 550W Gold, core i5-4570, and windows 8.1.
Onboard intel integrated graphics outputs works perfectly fine. The MSI card when installed the fan runs, and if I change the bios to direct video to the intel graphics, I can use the onborad HDMI slot for video and still boot up. Catalyst installer then is able to detect my card and be installed. At this point I plugged in my hdmi to video card before the reboot, still no video. After I rebooted, I still had no video (even after switching bios settings) and switched HDMI back to intel gfx. Now when I boot windows up, I get a bluescreen error.
I suspect I have both a hardware issue with the MSI card and possible driver issues that locked windows out of loading completely.
I have changed the gigabyte mobo BIOS around to try out different settings without any luck (changed compatibility CSM on/off, prioritized legacy or UEFI and vice versa, disabled fast boot)
Please if anyone has any thoughts on what to do I VERY MUCH APPRECIATE YOUR EXPERTISE. I want to see if I can make this work without RMA'ing it to newegg or MSI.
Michael
**also what is the advnatage of flashing your vbios to UEFI rather than legacy OUTSIDE of the protection from outside attacks?  I don't fully understand this as i've never used windows 8 before. I'm trying to read but its a bit tough.

ok so it could be one of 2 things
1: your VBIOS being used on the card is wrong (it has a 2 place switch near the Crossfire conectors) 1 is a GOP one for windows 8/8.1 and the other is legacy so you could try the other position (move it with the system shut down!)!
2: your Motherboards BIOS so see if Gigabyte has a updated one as usually with newer cards you need to update that to get them to work correctly so that's worth a try!
as for GOP/UEFI VBIOS versus Legacy a GOP/UEFI one is used for windows 8 for fast boot if not it may hold back loading the computer to start if its a legacy one! Legacy VBIOS is usually the one supplied on cards as it may be put onto a motherboard that may not support that type if its GOP!
let me know if ether of the 2 suggestions above work!

  • Is light leakage/dead pixels considered DOA (dead on arrival?)

    I have my Ipad 2 engraved, and I just realized I could not return it for a refund or exchange unless it's a DOA (dead on arrival) as mentioned on http://store.apple.com/Catalog/US/Images/salespolicies.html#topic-21:
    "Personalized iPods (e.g., engraved or customized in any way) may not be returned for refund or exchange under any circumstances unless such product is Dead on Arrival (see the section below for more detailed information on such Dead on Arrival products)"
    Also, according the the Apple's definition, "an Apple-branded hardware product is considered DOA if it shows symptoms of a hardware failure, preventing basic operability, when you first use it after opening the box. "
    So I'm guessing light leakage, the yellow tint and/or the dead pixels are NOT considered something that prevent "basic operability"?
    If I can't return it, can I send it in for repair instead? Under the standard one-year limited warranty for Ipad, do I need to pay for anything?
    Message was edited by: whyonearthIengravedMyIpad

    The way the "replacement" works with an engraved product is that it's Apple's choice to repair or replace. If Apple replaces it (which may be more likely with an iPad than with an iMac, say) then Apple will send you a new (unengraved) one. (And the choice to repair or replace is Apple's anyway, engraved or not.)
    Speaking just for myself, I chose engraving because that was going to increase my enjoyment while I use my product. Speaking again just for myself, there's certainly a market for engraved items. Just knock a few dollars off the price and some of us will gladly take your engraved version off your hands.
    If you really are concerned about resale value (I've only sold one of my 8 Apple computers and zero iPods or displays so I couldn't care less about resale value) then keep the box and packaging, keep it pristine, and buy AppleCare.

  • MSI 280 GTX OC HIGH temperature

    I bought a MSI 280 GTX OC video card about half years ago, but now is the summer time , the video card temperature get above 90'C  O_o
    It really bothering me, because it will effect the performance of the game and it will also damage the video card. 
    Any idea for solve the temp problem?
    That's my topic half year ago ( it also about overheat problem) :   https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=120379.0
    My new powersupply:   http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817703009
    also I'm not sure how to upload the dxdiag file, it maybe help to find the problem.

    Well, looks like I have no choose. RMA is the only option.   
    thx anyway.

  • Time capsule dead on arrival

    Got a new TC for Christmas. How disappointing, dead on arrival. Does not even switch on. Wanted also to use wireless for my wife's Christmas present - ipod touch. How disappointing! This is the 2nd Apple item I've bought this year that was not up to par.

    If the device died because of the same reason the others were recalled, then why would they refuse to offer the same service?
    It's unfortunate that the device failed, but we're all end users...just like you.... and you are asking us to explain an Apple decision or policy. I'm sure you can understand why we cannot do that. Your question is for Apple.
    Now my backup data is on the drive, however, so I don't want to sell it or toss it as is.
    Have you considered having the Time Capsule repaired?. A good shop will replace the failed power supply capacitors with more robust components. Chances are, the drive is just fine and you'll have a fully functioning product again....better than the original.
    The link below will provide some possibilities.
    https://sites.google.com/site/lapastenague/a-deconstruction-of-routers-and-modem s/apple-time-capsule-repairers
    Does anyone here know if taking it to an Apple store for them to erase the drive would be an option, as I can't even power it up myself?
    Your local Apple store may be able to provide you with the name of a servicer who could also repair the Time Capsule or erase the drive if you want to go that route.

  • MSI K7N2 Delta-ILSR Dead? Help!

    Hey all,
    Well, the other day I was on my computer playing a game when my mobo fan started making an odd noise (as if switching rpm), so I took off the side of my case and took a look inside. Everything seemed to be functioning properly, then I switched my cpu fan speed via the pci slot speed control. As I switched from High-Medium-Low, I noticed that the fan actually slowed to the point where I could see the blades spinning, at least for a second or so. I found that rather odd, seeing as how I've never seen a fan (especially a cpu fan) slow to the point that I could see the blades spin. Anyway, a couple of hours later, I shut down and went to sleep.
    The next day I had my comp on for about maybe 30mins to an hour or so when suddenly I heard an alarm from the computer speaker, so I was like, ":censored:?" since I had never heard it before. It was evidently the temperature warning, which I had set to 70C. So I shut down within 15 seconds and opened up the side of my case.
    I noticed that the cpu fan wasn't moving at all (usually I'd open the case in time to see the spin-down). So I turned the computer back on and the fan didn't budge, so I immediately powered down, assuming that the CPU Fan had died. Later on, I hooked the fan itself up to a free power cord in my sister's computer and booted up, along with the speed controller, flipping from medium to high to low without any problems.
    I then did screwed the fan back to the heatsink in my comp and booted up. I went into the bios an noticed that the rpm was 8k, which is way too high for my fan (normally 5k). So i began switching from high, medium, to low once again, then I saw that the rpm reader in the bios went to 0. So I looked back in the side of my case and saw that the cpu fan was once again dead. At this point I concluded that it was the fan and was about to order the Volcano 12.
    A day later I placed the fan inside my sister's computer on a free cord, yet again, and yet again, it worked fine.
    I once again put it in my computer to test and this time it worked fine, even while switching between speeds. Unfortunately, I then noticed that the mobo fan was not moving, then began to move.
    Well, I'm guessing now that it's simply the motherboard that has a short, since both the motherboard fan as well as the cpu fan have randomly been dying the past few days. The motherboard fan; however, has switched rpm many times in the past from 5k to 3k.
    It could also be a PSU problem, but I have Antec 400watt psu and it's been working fine for the past 2 years, so I doubt it. I've had the motherboard for a little over a year. I upgraded my cpu from 2200+ to 3000+ in July. That's also when I bought the cpu fan. The motherboard fan began fluctuating in rpm noticeably back in April or May of this year.
    Yesterday, I used the computer again and had it on for about 2 hours or so and I had speedfan monitoring the temps and the rpm. The temps stayed relatively stable: 48 cpu, 44 mobo.
    But alas, the RPMs were totally [blame me for the swear filter] up. At one point, both the mobo and cpu fan speeds were reading 0, even though both continued to spin within the case and the temps remained the same. Then after 30mins or so, they cpu fan began reading again at 40,000-42,000rpm, which is obviously incorrect, seeing as the fan is rated for around 5k. I got/get the same readings in the bios, both fans reading at 0rpm as they continue to physically spin.
    Also, during a number of times that I've started up the comp within the past few days, the motherboard northbridge fan wasn't spinning at all and didn't begin to until a few minutes into my windows session.
    Also, I took out the NB fan and noticed a slight crack in the back of it.
    I was considering simply just buying the Volcano 12 and the MSI K7N2 Delta2 Platinum rather than RMAing the mobo. Then perhaps an Antec 550W psu, if necessary.
    Any ideas what I should replace and in which order? And has anybody else encountered any similar problems with this mobo (at least with the mobo rpm, which has been a prob for about 6months on and off)?
    I bought the mobo along with a 2200+ in July of 2003. I upgraded the ram from 256 to 512 in April 2004 (which is around the time I started hearing rpm probs with the mobo fan) and I upgraded the cpu in July of 2004
    Many Thanks!

    Could be a fluctuating PSU that's breaking down power to the MB. You have a whole lot of components dragging that PSU down. With what you have in your rig I would run either an Antec or Enermax 550W. Best way to be sure is to borrow a PSU or buy one from a store with a good return policy so that you can return it if indeed it turns out to be the MB. If I don't have your board here on my bench to test the only thing I can suggest to you is to swap out components unfortunately.

  • Can't install either Xp or Vista on sistem with MSI 280 GTX OC!

    I purchase one graphic card 280 GTX OC made by MSI, and with that I change everything in my comp., like proc., MB, DDR2, PSU, all are new. I have first a compatibility problem: my old MB its not supporting the new 45 mn Intel proc., and my "old" PSU (Antec True Power 650W) doesn't have 12V rail with 8 pin for graphic card, so I change'm both with :MB - Asus P5Q, and PSU - Corsair 750TX. OK, when I start the system, eveything it's ok, like booting, entering BIOS, do changes and save(green led on VGA on). When I try to install one of Windows Xp or Vista, they let me formating HDD, make partitions, but after they installing the setup on HDD to run the installer, my VGA card it's not working anymore  (red led on), so I can't install OS!
    Can you guys can help me with that?

    Ok, I update the BIOS of motherboard and still the same. I put the "old" video card (8800 GTS 512) and everything is ok, booting, OS installer, I try to cheat the 280 GTX to start in preinstalled Windows, but nothing, the same: when it goes in Windows loading it shut off. I don't think now my MB it's the problem, so I returned the graphic card to sellers and now wait for the verdict. All the components are up to date, and the PSU it must be ok (see de review here http://www.hardwaresecrets.com/article/505/8).

  • MSI Gt70-0NC GPU Dead??

    HI Guys,
    I bought a MSI GT70-0NC last week and reinstalled Windows 7 immediately.
       I got a GTX 675M 2GB Graphics Card in it and i cant start any Game with it. Neither i can install any drivers.
        The first Problem is, that the Graphics Card puts out an error 43 in System-Manager.
        Then there´s no Bios Information of the  GPU Clock in GPU-Z.
        I downloaded the latest VGA-Bios for MSI-Cards on Techpowerup.com and flashed it with nvflash:
        and still got the same Problems.
        I tried the Inf Modding for the Actual Graphics driver and the original Driver on the MSI-Homepage.
        Still no Luck
        Is there any other MSi Rom i need???
        Is it even possible to get the Graphics card to work?
        Pls guys, can u help me??? i´m running my Notebook with integrated Graphics at the Moment

    i can get a GTX260m very cheap from a friend. Is there any possibillity to get this card working in the GT70??
    The next best card for your laptop is going to be the 680m, it is quite a bit more powerful than the 675m and would actually be a pretty decent upgrade (the 675m wasn't that great to begin with).  You should be able to get a 680m working from ebay, try and buy an MSI one, a Dell/Alienware one can still work but it you're more likely to run into problems, you'd also have to flash the MSI vbios.
    Good luck

  • Autoclocking on MSI AGP 6600GT possible?

         On some nVidia boards in coolbits there is an auto overclock selection. I don't have it under my overclocking tab.
    I have manual and no overclocking.
    Has anyone ever had the auto overclock selection under the overclock tab for the 6600GT?
    I just want to give it a try if it is possible on the 6600GT. I know it might not be better then manual, but I would like to try it at least if it is possible.
    Thanks

    A linkage to the BIOS would be helpful.
    Scroll down the page to a post by DaKiLLa
    http://www.mvktech.net/components/com_simpleboard/uploaded/files/modbios.rom
    Here is how I did it. This is for the MSI 6600GT AGP version video card.
    You need to create an MSDOS floppy boot disk. You can do that in windows. Right click floppy drive and pick format, click on create an MS-DOS startup disk.
    Then download version 5.13 of NVFLASH from http://www.mvktech.net , unzip the files and put them all on the the boot floppy.
    Copy modbios.rom to the floppy, the file size should be 64000 bytes. I checked the file before I used it. It is OK, There is only one small change in the file to enable the temperature.
    If your overclocking your computer set everything to default until after the flash, lower your memory timings if they are running at turbo or tight timings. Look for a enable VGA setting in your bios, you want it set to PCI first not AGP. If something goes wrong you can still start your computer with a cheap PCI video card as long as it is set to PCI.
    OK now start your computer with the boot floppy
    When you get to the A: prompt
    type this, then press enter ---->     NVFLASH -b backup.rom
    That will save a backup on the floppy of the original bios
    type this, then press enter ---->     NVFLASH -r
    That will shut off write protect on the bios
    type this, then press enter ---->     NVFLASH -4 -5 -6 modbios.rom
    That will flash the modded bios
    After the flash is complete press these three keys at the same time to restart the computer   -------->    CTRL-ALT-DEL
    If for some reason the flash does not go well, do not restart the computer keep trying until it goes smoothly. If you follow my directions exactly you shouldn't have any problems.                   
    You do this at your own risk. I will not be held responsible for anything that goes wrong...good luck!

  • Msi pt 880neo fsr dead heelllp

    hello, the problem:
    pc was working fine, turned of... come back turned on and... dead
    recently i had some issues referred to the psu... two psu died by some kind of overvoltaje then i buy another new and wok fine until this...
    i dont know if the processor and mobo died or only one of them, i can use the d-braket and power up the mobo without processor to diagnose if the motherboard is alive or it will not work
    if the mobo is dead and in the pcb there is no visible damage (burned, exploded capacitors, etc) what is the first thing in mind to fail in this case, may be the precessor regulation stage
    some ideas

  • MSI k8N SLI Platinum - dead??

    Hello,
    I have started the PC as per usual. Pushed the power button... nothing. Then again... nothing. Then I swithed off from the switch near the mains entry. and switched on... PC started however I get nothing on the screen. No beeps.
    I have an Antec Truecontrol 2.0 power supply, an MSI K8N SLI Platinum (socket 939) with AMD Athlon, 2 GB Corsair TWINX Ram, three HDDS SATA, Raptor 75GB as Primary (C:) and another two WDS. Video Card: BFG 7800GTX+ 256MB OC, PCI - Express.
    System has functioned Ok for three and a half years at least. I have replaced the Northbridge Fan from the beginning with a Blue heatsink - I believe Zalman. No temp issues. No overclocking, I am not using any commander modes etc etc.
    When I look at the D-Bracket I get Memory Init Error (RED-GReen-Red-Red). I am pretty sure it is not the RAM. I pulled the RAM, used only one stick... same error.
    I pulled the video card out. Then interestingly the system reaches the phase just before booting and the D_Bracket shows Floppy Init error (Green-Red-Green-Green). I tried moving the video card to the second PCI -ex - I also reach the Floppy Error point. I put in a crappy PIC-Ex video card - I reach the same Floppy init point - the floppy actually seeks but does not try to read. Unfort I forgot where I put the Monitor adapter thingy so I can;t check if I get anything on the screen with the crappy PCI-Ex video card. Will get it... soon...
    I have a hard time determining whether it is the Video card or the mainboard. I have pulled the battery out, left overnight, pushed the BIOS reset... nothing helped. With Video Card in PCI-Ex slot 1, I get the memory init error. With the card in PCI-Ex slot 2 or with no card or with crappy PCI-Ex, I get to the Floppy Init point.
    Could it be that at that point I would be getting a VGA error that I cannot see on the screen ? Why then NO BEEPS? Does this Mobo model not beep, just uses the D-Bracket?
    It is important - if it is the mobo I am done for, I have to buy Mobo, RAM, CPU... $1,000. If it is the Video card I may find something 1 slot wide and similar to the BFG ...
    Can anyone help narrow this please ?
    BTW on the screen I get NOTHING, if I pull out the cable the monitor says - check connection, if I plug it in the monitor goes to power saving.
    Thank you Heaps

  • N660TI-2GD5/OC Possibly dead?

    Hello everyone and thank you for your time spent looking at my post and i apologise if this is not the correct way/place to enquire about this issue
    I'm having an issue where I can't boot my system with my N660Ti-2GD5/OC installed And Nvidia Drivers installed.
    Without drivers the card will boot into windows and run perfectly fine without issues and then when i install drivers no matter which it will either cause the screen to go blank and eventually lockup the system with no signal showing from Nvidia Driver crashes (TDR) as soon as i go into safe mode and remove the drivers it is fine again.
    i have reinstalled my windows twice and the issue still persists =/ i have a few times managed to get into windows with the drivers installed but then eventually either 5 Min's in or a few hours in the screens will go black flash no signal black again no signal again and then lock up causing me to have to reboot via the button.
    it has now finally come to the point where no matter which drivers i install the card after the windows loading screen will bluescreen mentioning Timeout delay with green lines running through the back of the bluescreen
    i have tried both PCIe 16 slot on my motherboard (Asus P8Z77-V LX) which is running the latest bios update.
    i have also tested the card in another computer with the exact same bluescreen and green lines issue.
    This system works with a Gigabyte 650 card in the system and on-board Intel 4000 series graphics
    Here are my system specs:
    - Asus P8Z77-V LX with 2403 Bios
    - MSI N660Ti-2GD5/OC  http://uk.msi.com/product/vga/N660Ti2GD5OC.html#hero-overview
    - ANTEC KUHLER H20 620 CPU cooler
    - 2 x 4GB Corsair Vengeance 1600MHz ram (8GB bundle)
    - 1 x 4GB Corsair Vengeance 1600MHz ram (4GB single)
    - 1 x Corsair Force Series 3 120GB SSD
    - 1 x Seagate 7200.12 1TB 6GBS
    - OCZ ZT 650W Modular PSU
    I've gone through the 'standard' things of checking and rechecking:
    - Yes, both PCIe power connectors are connected to the MSI graphics card
    - Yes, the Molex connector for power to PCI bus is plugged in to the motherboard
    - In BIOS, have set system to boot from PCI graphics card
    - In BIOS, have set PCI graphics slots to version 1, 2, and 3 without any change in the no-boot problem
    - Have tried putting the card in each of the possible locations, with no change to boot behaviour
    - Have no overclocks running and also my ram timings are setup correctly
    All Components in the computer were brand new in August 2012 except the card which was replaced on 28/11/2013 from my Gigabyte 660ti which kept crashing on Directx11 games due to a TDR issue also but never got this bad.
    The card started having cut out issues about a month ago and has basically come to the point where it is unusable with any kind of drivers.
    in terms of performance when it did work on drivers the card ran flawless
    As far as i know the card was brand new from the retailer i received it from as a replacement.
    Any idea what it could be :(? Seems to me like the card has slowly died.

    Hi,
    First of all: you're MIXING RAM.  Quote
    - 2 x 4GB Corsair Vengeance 1600MHz ram (8GB bundle)
    - 1 x 4GB Corsair Vengeance 1600MHz ram (4GB single)
    Don't do this.
    Second: once drivers are installed, card and OS detects type of card it has and uses more power than when it's without it. Seems like PSU related issue. If possible, test with different power supply.
    650 and 660Ti are a bit different cards, and the other requires more power than 650.

  • MSI 875P Neo LSR Dead??

    Hi y'all,
    Saturday 12th of juli I've bought some components:
    - Intel P4 3.0GHz 800MHz FSB
    - MSI 875P Neo LSR
    - 2*512MB Kingston HyperX PC3200 CL2
    - Hercules 3D Prophet 9800 Pro
    - Iiyama Vision Master Pro 413
    After installing the whole bunch, I tried to boot the system but nothing happend!
    So I waited for about 5 min. and booted again. This time almost succesfull but..... the only parts that were working are my fans (casefans, cpu-fan and the Northbridge-fan).
    The powerswitch wasn't working (and it was installed correctly). I had to power the system via the powerswitch on my powersupply. So my guess was that my mobo was dead!
    After returning the mobo back to my retailler, they concluded that it was dead indeed, so the gave me another mobo.
    So after installing the new board, I tried to boot again, but still no succes so far.
    My retailer tested the board again and it was also dead.
    Some symptoms:
    - Active fans
    - No HDD, floppy and DVD-player/Burner activity
    - Blank screen (display in standby)
    - Instant power on when I turn the switch on on my powersupply
    I've tried different videocards, memory modules and clearing the C-MOS, bur nothing seems to help ;(
    Can you please help me out????
    Thanks
    Best regards,
    Arjan

    With regard to the motherboard stand-offs, motherboards dont always use the same amount or in the same position (the stand-offs are movable -either bending out of brackets in the case or unscrewing)
    Always check ALL the standoffs line-up with screw positions for your moterboard before fitting, a wrongly positioned post can short-out PCB traces/pins
    Another easily overlooked item is the square 4 pin 12v connector (older type power supplys dont even have one), the 12v power connector is located by the northbrige/AGP socket (the CPU will not start without this fitted)
    Sometimes when physicaly altering a computer the reset or power-on (start) switchs dont line up correctly with their buttons -this can cause the switch to be permanently "on"
    The power-on switch will cause the computer to "cycle" (constant restarting) and the reset switch will cause the computer to hang with-out initialising -try removing the reset switch connector from the motherboard
    If none of those are the problem i would suggest trying a different power supply -or maybe your dealer could check the one you are using at the moment

  • Medion Erazer X7825 + GTX870M with MSI GT70 Bios possible ?

    Hi,
    I do I get Medion X7825 Erazer with an original bios. I plan an MSI GTX870M 3GB (from a GT60 2PC), along with a full color backlight keyboard to operate in this unit (from a GT70 0ND). For that I would like to use the MSI GT70 2PC Bios and the EC firmware so I can use the SSE. If this is possible without any problems? I know that the power sensor strip has a few other features, but I could also use the sensor bar from GT70 0ND, that would be no problem.
    Bios: http://www.msi.com/support/nb/GT70-2PC-Dominator.html#down-bios&Win8.1%2064
    EC Firmware: http://www.msi.com/support/nb/GT70-2PC-Dominator.html#down-firmware&Win8.1%2064
    Furthermore, the BIOS files from MSI are current as of the Medion also by far and the fan control has also been improved significantly.
    Actually, this should nevertheless funktioneren perfectly. When I think of the predecessor because, as you could use in the MS-1762 devices of the MSI Medion 51x BIOS to use newer video cards. The devices have been introduced after the Biosflash as MSI GT70 0ND.

    SSE is an exclusive program for MSI Gaming Notebook; not for OEM product.

  • Black dots, possibly dead pixels on my brand new Ipod Touch?

    I just purchased a new 4th Gen 32gb Ipod touch from Walmart, there were about 4 black dots, possilby dead pixels upon opening, not even a single smudge on the screen yet, but they were there, so I called and exchanged it for another brand new one, to find the same things this time appearing in the center of my screen. Is this a common issure with Ipod Touchs, or is it just bad luck two times in a row/ what can I do about this? Thanks

    Not it's not common.  It seems as though you just happened to have 2 bad ones in a row.  I would try returning it again either for a full refund so that you can purchase an iPod Touch elsewhere, or exchanging it for another one.

  • Display problems on Macbook possible dead pixels?

    I opened my computer today to find that there is a tiny stripe starting on top of the screen by the camera. It goes all the way down my screen but only shows on the top and bottom of my screen. I can see the full line if I tip my computer a certain way. The line looks green but is flickering. It looks as though the pixels are dead or something. My warranty on my Macbook is definitely up. I bought the computer in 2009, I wanted to ask if there are any quick fixes or if there are any options that won't cost me much. Any help would be much appreciated.  Thank you in advance!

    I agree with a brody.
    Você deve contatar o suporte da Apple, por telefone: 0800-761-0880. UmRevendedor Autorizado NÃO É o mesmo que a Apple. Acho que você está em uma situação difícil. Eu tinha um MacBook Pro com um problema semelhante e eu tenhoum bilhete de reparo de suporte da Apple por telefone e, em seguida, levou-a parauma Apple Store e fixaram-lo, sem perguntas. Eu tinha um MacBook Pro com a nVidia ea tela parou. Não consigo encontrar uma Apple Store no Brasil, parece quevocê só tem Revendedores Autorizados. ¿Existe uma outra loja da Apple para o qualvocê pode pegar o computador depois de falar com o suporte da Apple?
    Espero que ele vai legal.
