    I purchased m7700 alienware couple of years ago with nVidia 6800 Ultra 256MB card. My graphics card is not working.
    Is there any place where I can find similar spec card? I contacted alienware but they dont have.

    Please let me know where I can find one. :(

    thanks,
    amir

    U just go for an Nvidia Go 7800 GTX if u have a new motherboard version or u can get the Go 7950 GTX for your lappy if yours is area 51,
    If you got the Aurora m7700 with the AMD processor u dont need a new version motherboard its just a plug and play
    and ebay is your freind.

    If you contact a Clevo vendor (since that is a re-branded D900T/K), you can find parts.

    Try:
    - www.eurocom.com
    - www.rjtech.com

    ...more in the Clevo Guide

    Thanks guys for your reply. I email all of the vendors mentioned. The eurocom.com has it but they are selling it for about $495. I can buy a new laptop with that price.

    Do you know where I can find just the circuit board instead of the whole module which comes with fan and heat sink. I guess that would be cheaper but don't know where to find just the board.

    thanks,
    amir
