Hello. Newbie here - but not new to the Aspire 6930G. I have two of them, both old but still impressive. One has the Intel processor and is complete. I sourced a new screen with some difficulty for this one and added some RAM and now its working well and in daily use. I do not use it for gaming - too old for playing games… :-)
The other one is lacking some parts. It has the AMD processor. What is missing are the following:
Graphics card, entire top (screen, hinges etc.) speakers, and the heatsink for the processor.
I got this assembly for the parts only but since the other one works so well I thought I would try and ressurrect the beast, even if I could work it through the HDMI or VGA port with external monitors or TV. However, for this apparently I would need a graphics card and this seems to be difficult to source. Everywhere I looked seems to be either out of stock or some other reason for it not being available. There are some available from China but to get it to this country from there would be a nightmare in itself.
Am I chasing rainbows or is there perhaps a dear soul who might venture some suggestions - or maybe even have some bits lying about?
Thanks for looking at this message
Nico
