Motherboard replacements for Inspiron 1420?
in [Dell]
|
From: tophyr on 27 Dec 2009 05:54 The integrated video (NVIDIA) on my Inspiron came down with dementia today and needs to be replaced.. LCD screen is completely nonfunctional, and when connected to an external monitor the graphics are extremely distorted. Since I have to replace the mobo to replace the graphics.. are there any other Dell motherboards that fit the same case, that are better than the 1420? I can't find much info about the 1420's siblings other than the model numbers (ie, have heard of an Inspiron 1440?) so I'm hoping someone here knows more. I got pretty much the top of the line 1420.. Core Duo 2.2ghz, 4gb ram, NVIDIA graphics, etc etc.. but there's always room for improvement :D
From: Tom Scales on 29 Dec 2009 04:47 I believe the 1440 is the Studio 14z. I'd be surprised if any other motherboard fit. 1420 is a great machine. I'd ebay a motherboard and go for it. > -----Original Message----- > From: tophyr [mailto:tophyr.43xq3g(a)no.email.invalid] > Posted At: Sunday, December 27, 2009 4:54 AM > Posted To: alt.sys.pc-clone.dell > Conversation: Motherboard replacements for Inspiron 1420? > Subject: Motherboard replacements for Inspiron 1420? > > > The integrated video (NVIDIA) on my Inspiron came down with dementia > today and needs to be replaced..
