Hi,

I have an Acer Aspire 7750G but due to too much dust (and heat) my GPU needs a reflow.
But I hear that reflows are temporary, so I have 2 questions.
1. Can I use internal graphics? Of my cpu (I think?). Because if I go in safe mode, there is no problem with my graphics, so there must be something else to run the graphics?

2. Is my graphics card removable? How can I check that? I thaugt all laptops had gpu's soldered on, but last I saw a removable.

Thankyou!

Check out this video. It seems like if there is one it will be in the same place as this one. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bWy_lfNoRSw Just take it out and see if it will boot. If not you will be looking at a few months of digging on ebay for a replacement. Older Acer laptops are just terrible to find replacements like yours for. If it costs to much just get a new laptop or a refurb one.

Hey!
Thank you for your quick reply!
I just checked on my motherboard and my gpu is not removable :(
What can I do now?
