PolarMonkey Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 is there any image at all on the screen when it powers up? if there's no sound at all, even the Windows chime, after a while then it might be a hard disk problem & not the screen or Windows.

Black Rose Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 If it switches on as normal but nothing appears on the screen than it sounds like a graphics card issue not working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no image at all, but the LEDs on the power and volume buttons light up. And there's no sound at all too. :confused: If it switches on as normal but nothing appears on the screen than it sounds like a graphics card issue not working. Yes. Exactly like what you said, Dave. So, if it's a graphic card issue, what should I do then? :\ Need to change the motherboard? :stunned: :stunned: :stunned: :stunned: :stunned: :stunned: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Rose Posted June 6, 2009 Share Posted June 6, 2009 If it's still covered by a warranty get it repaired under it, if it's not covered have a look around to see if you know any friendly independent computer repairers and get them to have a look, it might be something similar like something has come out of something.

rudy_o Posted June 7, 2009 Author Share Posted June 7, 2009 The warranty period has just ended a few months ago.. I've bring my laptop to a service center nearby, they told me that it's a motherboard issue.. Presario V3000 uses AMD which can cause defects... If I wanna change the mobo, it costs me MYR1000, so it's better for me to buy a new one... :sad2: I'm broke right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cobalt Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 Graphics card asplode, or the hardware itself has broken is my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
