andersson.j Posted July 14, 2008 Report Share Posted July 14, 2008 My 3438 has lines and artefacts all over the screen and will only boot in safe mode. I suppose the GPU is fryed? Where can I find a cheap replacement video card? The cheapest alternative I've found is the type I 8400GS from mxm-upgrade.com. I'm not sure if it'll fit my mxm III slot? The x1800 doesn't cost much more and performs better so maybe it's worth a couple of extra bucks? I only use this computer for torrents and occacionaly for surfing. Since I barley used the capacity of the 6800 I'm in no need of an upgrade. I'm not willing to spend much money just to get this old antique going. Is there any cheaper alternative? (I've emailed mxm-upgrade but got an automated reply saying hes away untill august 20.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
