    So my video card kicked the bucket. If I put pressure on the chassis at all the screen artifacts and the system freezes. Even when sitting on a table untouched, if I run a 3D application it does the same thing... I've already pulled the thing apart completely. Everything is clean, nothing looks unusual. Put it back together, no fix.

    I've already searched the For Sale section here and a few other places. I also looked around eBay, and several parts websites listed in google searches.

    No luck. Anyone here happen to have a 7805u motherboard? Or know where I could get one?

    Any help on the matter is appreciated.
