I bought a new 4GB 1.5 years ago for my laptop (K55VJ an Ivy-bridge core i7 with HM77) and because of available stocks I got a DDR3L RAM with similar specs with the old ram (Samsung 4GB PC3-12800S-11) that I mixed it with (the old one is DDR3 while new one is DDR3L). After installing it, all was...

I took the BIOS battery out and put it back after some seconds, plugged in PSU and then pressed the power button, It turns on! I don't know why holding down the power button didn't do the hard reset.

My laptop was working fine until I opened it to clean it up (according to the same model video guide) and didn't take the main board out of its place. I put every thing back and then tried to turn it on, the power indicator turns on but nothing happens: no display, no fan sound, no HDD indicator...

It's my brother's. PSU 400W and CPU G2020 He finally bought Asus R7 250 OC, which was 25$ more expensive than GT 730. Unfortunately we couldn't find GDDR5 edition in local stores.

HAve you tried sfc /scannow command?

I can play Halo (which requires DirectX 9) without installing DirectX 9 on Windows 8.1. Maybe the DirectX setup you have is corrupted?

If you search through internet you may find appropriate drivers. e.g. My friend had a Lenovo z500 laptop and they didn't released a touchpad driver (and software) for it, but I searched and found an Asus Elan touchpad for it! and for someone else I could find Wi-Fi driver. Just search PID VID...

It might be a driver problem, can you remember what you've installed before this happened?

Thank you, but I didn't understand validity of this statement: If I buy a 1GB GDDR5 card, if it needs more memory, it can use shared memory and total graphics memory will increase, so It's better (or at least not lesser) than a 2GB DDR3. Is it true? And Which one is more future proof? (For...

According to budget and benchmarks I found these cards: 1.R7 250 2.GT 730 What do you think about the order? About VRAM, If I get a 1GB GDDR5 may it use shared memory if it needed more? So it'd be better than a 2GB DDR3? In my case future proof is more important than high details gaming.

And about 1GB GDDR5 vs 2GB DDR3 what do you say? Can't shared memory satisfy more memory demanding games and hence make 1GB DDR5 better?

But GT 740 is far more expensive at (my) local market. I agree with you, but in benchmarks r7 750 scores pretty well compared to Nvidia counterparts.

Unfortunately I'm not in US.

According to what I read in internet I sorted these graphics by this order: 1. R7 250 2. R7 240 3. GT730 I had no experience with Radeon graphics, and it seems that NVidia supports its products longer than AMD. Also they optimize their driver for new games. What do you think?
