guys, old laptop with ddr2 ram, worked with no loads, video skype talk + 2 torrents uploads + 1 browser opened with 5 pages. SUddenly video of skype freezes and no reaction at no button, waiting 15 minutes more thinking about bad sectors as many times was in the past, turned off forcefully with on-off button. then giving a rest to it for 30 minutes, turned on, and nothing, 3-4 seconds of cpu work and black screen, no movement towards booting, it has only one dedicated video card, took if off and started the laptop, the windows has started to desktop, but of course without videocard, bought new video card + tried other 2 from friends (the same compatible models) the same situation as with the one removed. So what can it be, as laptop works, so no ram, cpu problem, what can it be. on youtube and google websites have seen more than 250 results, nothing similiar. let me know if anyone had the same situations ___///^^^????
that could be a lot of things....bad mobo bad ram bad HD....heat sink not working so CPU over heats.....i have to go with the top suggestion look for a newer machine save yourself the headaches
