@Ranjeet – Your screen is like that until you replace it.

@David – Both Morris and I have replaced ours with Radeon 3650′s off of Ebay. Seller ensured they worked with the 5920G’s.

@ Pranav – take it to a qualified technician. There’s too much going on there.

@EVERYONE – Make your own post in the forums. You’ll get quicker help there.

Hi, I have a 5920G Laptop with the Nvidia 8600 GS Turbo Cache.
The Graphcs Card has slowly died to the point I cannot now log in before it dies, If I remove the Card the computer boots up OK, without image..
I want to buy a new graphics card for this laptop, I am in Australia and are having hugh issues trying to obtain one. when I asked acer they said that there is no replacement card 4 them, but they are happy to repair it.
Personally I wish to use a different card that does not have the Nvidia solider issues with the chipsets. What Card and Where can I get one.
I am Happy to do my own work on the computer as I am a system builder for broadcast editing suites.

@Hannah,

That appears to be harddrive connection issue, if you are willing, you can try opening the back plate

you can find the steps to open the back plate here http://www.theacerguy.com/2008/12/morris-aspire-5920-gpu-swapupgrade/

reinserting the harddrive should help, but make sure there are no dust between the contacts

After having this computer for the last 2.5yrs, I started to finally have problems.

For some reason the battery won’t stay in, so the computer keeps shutting off in midst of use. I mean, the battery’s in the computer, but it is somewhat loose it seems. I have to compress the battery cell to the computer hard when using it.

Unfortunately, I’ve got some important files in it, so I was wondering if anyone could help me out with this problem. Email me at enishi1983@gmail.com . Thanks.
