My macbook pro 2.2ghz, i7 , early 2011 having problem with the graphic card

hi, just need clarification, that i was made to understand that the NVDIA graphic card installed in Macbook Pro, has a warranty of 3 years, eventough without Apple Protection Plan. Can someone clarify this , as i m having problem with it now.

No, the GPU does not have a seperate 'three year warranty'... unless you purchased the extended AppleCare Protection Plan.
If you feel that you're having problems with your GPU, take your machine to your local Apple Store or an AASP and have them run a free diagnostic test. If the card is faulty, and you don't have a APP, you'll have to pay to have the entire logic board replaced.

  • Hello I have a Macbook pro 13inch (2009) and I'm having problems with the HD

    I ran into some problems with my Macbook a while back, but was able to fix it with disk utilities. However I tried to turn it on today and it would get stuck at the grey screen. It would get pretty hot too. Anyway I tried to boot into safe mode but it wouldn't do it, the bar at the bottom that shows its booting into safe mode would load halfway then disappear. I went into single user mode and did the /sbin/fsck -fy command and I would eventually get "the volume macintosh HD is fine" or something like that. When I would click exit so it would boot, it would wait for a bit then show diskOs2 : media not present all across the screen and would not stop. Any ideas? I'm pretty worried for my data. Any help is appreciated.

    Have you tried disk utility from the boot disk?

  • HT203254 Issues with the graphics card on 2008 Macbook Pro

    So if I am having issues with the graphics card and my Macbook is among those from 2008 affected but it is after the free repair program has ended, how can I repair it myself?  What parts need to be replaced?

    Hello, i just installed a vertex 2e 90gb ssd in my macbook pro 13" (8.1 early 2011). But when i do a disk speed test i only get 125 mb/s write speed and 146 mb/s read speed. Thats under 50% of what i should get. The disk have firmware 1.35 and 3 gb/s linkspeed when i check in systemreport.

    Speak to the manufacturer. They did the bench tests.

    Should I get a 2.0 or 3.0 USB external hard drive for my 2011 Macbook Pro? I need it to be compatible with the USB ports of both a PC and a Mac. I was thinking of getting a Seagate becuase apparently it is compatible with both systems, but I want to know which would be a better investment.

  • Hello everyone...I got my very first macbook pro just today and i have a problem deleting the "test" user account. if i can't delete it, the system won't let me turn off the system. I don't know what to do! HELP!!!!

    hello everyone...I got my very first macbook pro just today and i have a problem deleting the "test" user account. if i can't delete it, the system won't let me turn off the system. I don't know what to do! HELP!!!!

    Have you created another admin user? Go to system preferences click users and click the + to add a user; if you haven't already. Once you have another admin user other then the "test" user make sure you're signed out of the test user account. Sign in with the alternate ADMIN USER that you just created or had created already and go back to SYSTEM PREFERENCES and click the same USERS icon near the bottom. Now select the TEST user and click the - sign. This should prompt you if your sure you want to delete the user account. And your done.
    New User created and Test User deleted... I hope this helps.

  • Defect MacBook 2011. Problems with the video chip.

    I was faced with the legendary defect MacBook 2011. Problems with the video chip. Heard about what Apple makes replacement chips for free. My friend a year ago made the change in the service center. Is this true now?

    Since Apple says that some copy protected DVD's will not function with Disk Sharing, you may need to "clone" the DVD, using the MBP, to a flash drive, and use the flash drive to perform the installation of the software.
    Another alternative is to download and install the Trial version from the Microsoft Office For Mac website, and then use the activation code provided with the DVD to activate the full version install of the trial.

  • Satellite Pro A120: I have problems with the graphics driver installation for W2k

    I have installed windows 2000 on an A120 the system is fully service packed and up to date before I even begin installing the required drivers I am unable to restart the system. Once I install the drivers as recommended I have problems with the graphics driver as it will not install because it requires a restart and then I am unable to install any new programs that require a restart as the driver has not installed correctly.
    The laptop is a A120 Pro, 1 week old and came with XP home, because of this toshiba will not offer me support as I have changed the O/S even though they obviously support 2000 on this laptop as they supply the drivers.
    Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

    the reason the driver is not working is down to a problem with the windows 2000 not having the ability to reboot.
    When you select restart the system appears to power down then stays switched on. Now if I try to install software I get an error saying that the system needs to complete a restart to finish the install of the driver.
    The restart problem happens as soon as win2k is installed as although I have now shipped the laptop to the sales team I have another one which has just had a clean install of win2k without any drivers and the fault is present on this one.
    I am thinking it could be to do with power management but I'm not to sure as I have never come across this as I normally purchase machines which accept just about any O/S.

    Book your Apple appointment now, in the mean time you can try a SMC reset.
