I have TX2z.
AMD Turion X2 Dual Core RM-74 2.2 GHz
ATI Radeon HD3200
4.00 GB installed "crucial"
64 bit
With windows Vista ultimate installed.
I'm having the black screen boot up issue. Lights on. fan on.Sounds on. Only on a restart or full boot.... Disconnecting power + battery and Pressing power button repeatedly... will normally Get me running again.... or never shut it off.... Zero issues with sleep or Hibernation....
Research commonly says its my Graphics Card.... Research also says its ancient 2009 or older substandard design.... slow. slow. slow.
Question: Since I have to have the Graphics Card removed & resoldiered?
why Can't I replace with a more current faster nice one... ? And what one would be the easiest/best?
I'm not a rocket scientist.... Trying to learn and understand....
My Concerns would be if it would plug n play? Heat issues? Compatibility? Stability issues. not burn up other components.... would current BIO setting work? would the option of overclocking be reasonable or Smart. Replacing the slow toshiba hard drive is happening soon.... Crucial recommends the wd blue hdd 1 tb sata-600. . . On paper it seems 2x faster than my current. Or maybe the Crucial M500 240GB 2.5-inch Internal SSD. . . I lose a few Gigs but dramatic improvements everywhere.
I deeply enjoy this TX2z. I truly enjoy the stability of the 64 bit Vista ultimate.... Fixing. improving. Modding is my only desire.
I don't understand pin connectors. connectability .. Voltage inputs... Voltage outputs. Requirements.... Any Guidance would be appreciated.... any Guidance to a Reputable intelligent Place in IOWA to have my board rebuilt would help alot.... I would love to hear from someone smarter than me. ...I'm ln over my head.
