It happened here the other day, when I put this in a new case (after I had installed everything :lol:). Pissed me off :devil Yep Done that as well, :mad: [Insert swear words that would get ****** here ] :) These days I bend the tabs up a little and check before screwing everything in place.	wainuitech (129)
1126886	2010-08-13 22:34:00	i cannot say for sure. when the hdd was out the same issues right? re: the cpu and the fan. just unlatch the clips or lossen them and twist the fan it should pop when a bit of air gets underneath it dislodging the thermal paste. The fan is quite complicated, in the manual there are instructions on how to get it in but not out. Its not as simple as my previous mobo's :P There are like 4 plastic things that you have to push down to secure it underneath, but i cant get them back out. Even tried tweezers to squish it together at the bottom but no luck. And yes, same issues with the HDD out. I took everything apart and put it back in, still get the same issues. Im happy buying a new motherboard, they are like £40 inc. post and packaging so its not that bad, same motherboard also. I highly doubt it is a CPU issue, if it was, it wouldnt boot up at all, right? Nothing is shorting i.e panel wise, otherwise it wouldnt boot. Incase some of you didnt read properly it boots, but only displays command line interfaces and not graphical. If i get the green light to buy a new motherboard, i shall. Got it reserved on a bookmark :)	Programmar (15930)
1126887	2010-08-13 22:42:00	Still a bit early for me Still half :sleep Press ctrl + Alt + Del Do you get the task manager open ?	wainuitech (129)

Ive said i cant boot into windows because a system file is corrupt and i cant fix that because i can only use command line interfaces and not graphical. Although, ctrl alt delete is the best form of fixing a computer. Next to turning it off and on again.	Programmar (15930)

Next to turning it off and on again. umm .. you saying a file is corrupted cannot get into windows - cool. you are also saying when the hdd is not plugged in you get the no display issue? personally i would backup your stuff on the laptop with a USB device FIRST. i would use your CD and redo your hdd if it can be done. so you eliminate this thing out. if you don't want your data, just reload the cd over with, prior formatting it.

No, it isnt the HDD that is the main problem. Windows system file has been corrupted, that doesnt bother me as i have a repair CD. However, when i try to boot that CD up (and yes, i know it boots fine :P) i dont get any graphical display like i do if i try the same CD on this laptop. Basically, i lack graphical display. The problem with windows is nothing, easily fixable, the problem i posted about is not having any kind of graphical display. Only command line interfaces. I know it isnt the HDD because even with it out i get the same problem.	Programmar (15930)
1126891	2010-08-13 23:13:00	dunno. got a shop with a good return policy? my bet is the motherboard or video card. do you play games? if not, just get a motherboard with built in video.	Nomad (952)

It does have built in video, and i have a card also. Same result on both, my bet is that it is the motherboard. Sorry to sound harsh but, have you read the thread or just jumped in? Ive posted this info already, i dont mind posting it again but it'd be better if you (you're not the only one :)) read the thread first. Thanks for the advice though. Right now im running memtest, see what that gives out. If not, going to buy a new mobo providing i get the green light.	Programmar (15930)
1126893	2010-08-13 23:25:00	the thread now is 58 post, LOL. someone said about virus, then someone said about task manager, i'm not the only person going over their head ....	Nomad (952)

Although, ctrl alt delete is the best form of fixing a computer. Next to turning it off and on again. Awhhh NO -- seen it hundreds of times, windows wont load, hitting ctrl+Alt+Del brings up the Task Manager. One thing doesn't sound right -- Right now im running memtest, see what that gives out. If not, going to buy a new mobo providing i get the green light. However, when i try to boot that CD up (and yes, i know it boots fine :P) i dont get any graphical display like i do if i try the same CD on this laptop. NORMALLY - If the Motherboard is screwed then you shouldn't be able to see Memtest running -- It USES GRAPHICS as well. Sure its all txt but if you see that then you should get a normal GUI as well, even if it is from a CD. When Linux (ubuntu) boots from the CD that loads into RAM UNLESS there is some sort of damage that causes the graphics to fail when there is more of a load.	wainuitech (129)
