  • Can I replace the graphics card on Tecra M2?

    I have a Tecra M2 and the screen shows verticle lines across the entire screen. These lines also show up when plugged up to a regular screen.
    I checked the device manager and it says the nvidia card "cannot start." Troubleshoot had me uninstall and reinstall, no luck.
    Next option is to unplug and then plug back in, but is this possible? If it is separate I'd rather just replace the card. Thanks for any help.

    According to your error description it sounds really like a GPU (graphic processing unit) malfunction.
    Unfortunately, this is a serious fault and without a hardware replacement you will be not able to solve this problem :(
    This is a worth case because you cannot replace only the graphic card. You have to replace the whole motherboard because the GPU is soldered on the board and cannot be removed easily.
    There is nothing to do buddy.
    Seems you have to contact a technician for assistance.
    Good luck

    Hi,
    Upgrading graphics chips on laptops is very difficult and mostly impossible because the chips are soldered to the motherboard. You can upgrade the graphics chip by replacing the motherboard with a compatible one which has a more powerful graphics chip. In your case it is a mobo with an Nvidia GF GT650M with 2GB of DDR5 RAM. However, the motherboard costs approx $600. The part number you need is:  682040-001.
    It looks like M7series laptops are compatible with Dv7-6000 series laptops. See a service manual:

  • Can we upgrade the graphic card on macbook pro 13 inch mid 2012

    I just bought my macbook pro 13 inch mid 2012. I am wondering can i upgrade the graphic card to NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M discrete processor with up to 1GB of video memory?

    Nope - you're stuck with the Intel 4000. If you wanted a higher-performance GPU, you should have bought a 15".
    Sorry,

  • How can I measure the Graphics Card usage? I.e. percent load

    Hello,
    How can I measure the Graphics Card usage, like with the processor in Task Manager, but instead giving a percentage usage for the graphics card instead? Is there an easy way to do this, or would it require a lot of code? Is it even possible?

    Ah, so It's unlikely that Java3D will include anything for reading this data then? I was really aiming at measuring the GPU usage under this API which although i have limited knowledge using, I do at least have some knowledge - I wouldn't have a clue how to access any other API's!
    I'm using an NVidia TNT2 card at the moment, which is quite old.

  • Can one upgrade the graphic card for Imac (intel based)?

    can one upgrade the graphic card in an Imac (intel based)?

    While anything is theoretically possible, you would need to find another GPU that is compatible with your specific model iMac, and you would need to modify OS X to use a driver appropriate for whatever you propose to install. Future OS X updates would break it in short order. Not only that, you'd void whatever warranty that remains. It's not worth it.

  • Can I change the graphic card in my Imac 21.5 2012 year

    Can I change the graphic card in my Imac 21.5 2012 year.

    You can't change the graphics card on 2012 model of iMac (unless you are talking about the THICK iMacs then I don't know). If you do want to change graphics card, then it probably needs expertise on soldering skills. CPU, RAM and HDD/SSD can be changed. The RAM is not soldered in. I have seen someone changed the RAM. Please check iFixit website for information on 2012 iMac:

    Also, don't forget that the screen is glued.

  • Can i replace the WLan card on my Satellite Pro P750

    I purchased my P750 to run wirelessly on our 5GHz (802.11a/n) frequency network.
    Though I was informed it would work it does not. It appears that my hardware does not work on the "a" band.
    My question is can the card be reaplaced or is it built into the board. If it is in built can an extermal wireless card be purchased to do the job?
    Just in case you asked I have read the forums updated the drivers and enabled the "n" on the AdHoc advanced profile for my Atheros AR9002WB-1NG

    Hi
    The Wlan card is connected to the miniPCI port on the motherboard and its possible to remove/disconnect the card.
    But there could be still an compatibility issues between new device (Wlan chip) and the BIOS.
    I read here in the forum that someone has replaced the Wlan card and finally the notebook didnt boot up due to the compatibility problems between the Wlan and BIOS.
    So in your case I recommend using an external Wlan solution.
    The WLan stick is easy in use and should be compatible with most systems.

  • Can I change the graphic card on my Satellite A notebook?

    Can I change the video card that is originally on to my laptop? And if yes, how?

    Unfortunately this is not possible because the GPU chip is fixed and soldered on the motherboard.

  • Dv6-6052ea (LL050EA). Can I upgrade the graphics card?

    OS: Genuine Windows 7 Home Premium 64
    Here's the spec: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c02787054&tmp_task=prodinfoCategory&cc=uk&dlc=en...
    Is there any way to ugrade the graphics card without buying a new laptop? Or allocate more dedicated RAM?
    The BIOS is Insydeh20 F.1B and there are no options to alter any graphics settings. Is there any way round that?
    Not that I know a lot about computer specs but the GPU seems to be the reason I can't play games on decent settings and it's driving me mad.
    Cheers

    Hi:
    You could upgrade the video in your PC to the Radeon HD 6770 with 2 GB of dedicated memory, but the entire motherboard would have to be replaced.
    The costs attendant to doing such an upgrade would exceed the cost of purchasing a new notebook with the graphics solution you were looking for, when you consider the money you may recoup selling or trading in your current model.
    There are no settings in the BIOS or elsewhere to allocate a different amount of memory (dedicated or system) to the video adapter. It is all done automatically.

  • Can I put the Graphics card from one of my Asus laptops into another?

    I have an Asus U56E and I want to put the graphics card from my Asus G51V into it, and I've scoured the internet and even called the geek squad to no avail, no one seems to be able to answer my question. If anyone could help it would be appreciated. 

    Generally with laptops you cannot remove/replace the graphics chips because they are integrated into the main board and are not a seperate component that can be swapped out. Some of the really high end laptops are starting to use modular cards but I do not believe that will be the case with your laptops. You may want to contact Asus for a more definate answer.

  • Can I replace a Graphics card on a HP Pavilion DV6-2311ee ?

    is it possiable to change the Graphics card of this model ? 

    Hi,
    Basically you can, with a cost and I believe this cost may be more expensive than buying a new computer because you have to take into account:
    New card price,  and WHERE you can buy it because laptop cards are not the same as desktop cards. You can't buy from any normal shop,
    Need new system board (may be),
    Need new cooling system because generally speaking more powerfull card pumps out more heat (you want more powerfull card don't you?).
    May need new PSU because your current PSU may not suitbale to the card. (I ordered a machine with Nvidia card and I needed to order a 90W charger at the same time, not the normal 65W charger. They simply rejected my order).
    Labor cost.
    Many, many packets of Asprin.
    Hope this helps.

  • Tecra A6 - Can I upgrade the graphic card?

    I have a Tecra A6 A60E (171) with 1Gb memory and the Intel Express 950 video chipset set at max memory useage 128Mb.
    Is it possible to either upgrade the memory allocation to 256Mb max or install a graphics card?
    Shaun

    Hi!
    Sorry buddy but here in the forum are so much threads about upgrading the graphic card and CPU so I can prefer this Toshiba document:
    http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB9401AX0001R01.htm
    And yes, if you have more RAM you will get more video RAM. As far as I know up to 256MB video RAM are possible.
    Bye

  • Can I replace the wireless card in my Macbook Pro?

    Can I replace the airport extreme card (Wireless G) to the new N card that come in the new MBP?

    Yes. It has been done. I have heard that the wireless n card for the mac pro will fit the macbook pro. I haven't done it yet though...I'm undecided about whether to update my laptop so i'm going to wait a while before i void my warranty.
    An apple dealer have offered to perform the installation but can't guarantee it will work, and say it will void my warranty but that's up in a month anyway... I'll let you know if i do it.

  • Can I upgrade the Graphics Card in my Aspire T180?

    Hi, I have an old Aspire T180-UB7Z. I want to upgrade the graphics card. What would be the best option I could go for which would not need any upgrades to the PSU or motherboard? I want one I can just plug straight in. What sort of things do I need to look for to make sure the new graphics board is compatable? Thanks for your help

    Hello, Your desktop is equipped with a PSU of 250W and PCIEx16 1.0 slot.First I advise you to determine the total power with this tool.Like this you'll know the power available for the new graphic board.
