    Hello. I own a N56JR. I bought it one year and a half ago. Recently I'm experiencing some problems with the nVidia graphic cards, especially when I changed to Windows 10. Basically the graphic cards is on the device manager, but with a yellow triangle. I can't use the nvidia cards to play or anything. But sometimes the graphic card starts working from nothing and a few hours later dies again. I've sent my computer to the warranty, and they have changed the board. I received the computer on Wednesday, but today the problem started again. What can I do?

    Try DDU and then install the latest WHQL Nvidia driver for W10? Also, have you ever experienced overheating (do you monitor temps)?

    Just from past experience... But on some older ASUS models i.e U3X series with 320M and 540M (I think) series, the GPU tended to die randomly (crappy soldering? I dunno) in most causes and even had to be turned off. I think you've stepped into a model with bad soldering from the get go like the whole Macbook/Pro dilemma from the past.

    Crappy soldering twice? I don't believe in that. Meh
