hi ,

i have an acer 5742g laptop with an integrated Ati hd5470 , last night i was playing the game froze
i stopped the game process using the task manager i continued using the laptop surfing .
today i start the computer everything is normal i start playing and another freez this time with weird graphic glitches no responce ( forced shutdown ).

now i have a black screen no display in the led lcd but external display works and i have this weird stripes and lines over the screen even in acer logo (boot) i tried to restore and i tried to remove and install the display driver it caused blue screen error atikmpag.sys .

the pc boot and widows starts . i removed the display drivers because of the blue screen error.

did i damage the graphic card ?

thank you for your help

If that is the case, you might consider eBay for replacement parts.

Sellers often have affordable worldwide shipping options and fair prices on secondhand technology. Make sure you understand your laptop's dis-assembly and re-assembly procedure(s) before you make the purchase. Good luck! =)
