If you already have it, just try them out. If you're looking to buy it, check this video and its description out: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2mQgcBXkB44 If Counter Strike Global Offensive is as taxing as TF2, then you should be in decent shape. You're just not going to get 60 FPS.

Okay, first things first. Can you please tell me the make and model of your laptop?

I see you posted another thread: http://www.tomshardware.com/answers/id-3063921/amd-radeon-6740m.html Please only post one thread for one issue. Judging by the other thread, you have your graphics card is an AMD Radeon HD 6740M. Can you please tell me the make and model of your laptop? What...

Hmm. Well, I'm glad you solved your issue. Hopefully, it does not rear its ugly head once more. Good luck in your future, PC-related endeavors (well, how about all your endeavors, for that matter).

What do you mean by you "checked the drivers?"

I know a lot of people who charge $50 up front to even look at a computer, and then around $50 an hour after the first hour. Google "average price per hour computer repair," and you'll get an idea.

Is the laptop plugged into the wall when this happens? Have you tried uninstalling your graphics drivers and reinstalling the latest version from HP? Please make sure HP has drivers for your laptop on their site before uninstalling any drivers.

When did this problem being to occur? Also, Lenovo doesn't have your specific model on their website, which is an issue, because you can't find your specific graphics drivers. Where did you get the drivers from?

Gotcha. I wanted to know this for future reference, and I'm sure your knowledge has helped McCabe. Thanks for the insight, g-unit.

So it's technically possible but not really viable, warranty aside?

I'm not sure I follow. How is it definitely impossible to upgrade to a new screen if it fits and connects properly?

Let me make myself more clear. Those guides won't be exact to how you would replace your specific laptop's screen, but rather provide insight on how to go about replacing a laptop screen in general.

Well, I'm not well versed in this, but I would imagine you have to find one that is the same size and uses the same type of connection as the current display. You should also Google "replacing laptop screen" and check out some guides to see if they can provide you some insight.

For future reference, splitting your post into paragraphs helps us to better digest your words. As for your problem, it seems the charging port of the device is damaged.

Yeah, if you can't see anything, a restore is what you have to do.
