Its your GPU for sure. Mine just went out and it looks exactly the same. Sorry dude. If its under warranty dell will fix it for ya. Otherwise your gonna have to shell out $500 to get a replacement card that is the same as what you have...

Hey guys, the CEO at my office has an XPS M1710 and the vid card just went out. Classic strange characters and lines showing up on the screen. So we bought a new card. An fx 512mb card. It fixed the problem for a while...Now that card...

Well if worse comes to worse, I will just go get some leds from radio shack and wire them to a usb port just like i did with the xps logo on the lid. Thanks

Yeah but i saw a guy who got his to light up. He was converting from i9300 to xps. He said he just flashed his bios with The GEN2 but I am a little hesitant to do this on my 9400.

Hey guys, I just modded my e1705 to an xps m1710 with all the leds. Everything looks great, however my touchpad will not light up. Any ideas? thanks
