Laptops with Nvidia Graphics Card Defect


Do you have a laptop that is experiencing video problems? It might be one of the laptops affected by a weak die/packaging material set in certain versions of versions of Nvidia graphics silicon used in laptops. The die refers to the chip itself and the packaging is what encases the chip. Check your laptops, or you too may be treated to "multiple images, random characters on the screen, lines on the screen, no video" or even a "notebook [that] does not start."

Both Dell and HP finally came out with a list of laptops that included the defective cards.
