Ok, heres the problem, I have an area 51 m7700. i started noticing that my computer screen turned green, blue ,red,yellow ,it all depended on where you put presure when you laid your palm down. so i decided to open it for the 10th time in 2 years . i open the part where the video card is at and i dismantled it, cleaned the gpu's old thermal compound and added some artic silver 5. put it back in place. ok now it turn the computer on, nothing shows but power led and the hard drive led. the hard drive led flickers but nothing pops up in the display.
so i get mad and i kept on turning off and on the laptop but see no results. so what i ended up doig was i ending doing the same thing all over again with the video card. here one thing
i unscrewed the video card out and i noticed that the screw was connected to a metal peice ,it seemed like something that was solderd to the motherboard so that the screws from the video card could fit and now the video card wont screw in normally.so i left it attached to the screw from the video card so it can atleast hold it self up instead of tilting it self when it didnt have that solderd thing. ok now i have screwed everything back in and i turn on my laptop to see that the power led is on and the hard drive led is on but its now its doing nothing at all. after that i thought that its probably something with messed up bios/cmos w/e its called , so i took out the silver looking battery for 3 minutes and put it back and still no result.
so what should i do now?
note-> ( i had opened the laptop for other reasons to, my fans stopped turning on so i checked in , cleaned it , did whatever i could but nothing really worked until i update bios and learned it was the heat sink problem. so i used fn-f2 button to manually turn on my fans.)
