Today I get a call advising me that their diagnostic test LO AND BEHOLD highlighted that their "GRAPHICS CARD" ( Nvidea ) had failed. Yesterday when I rang them again, I was advised that they were running more tests to make sure it was the Logic Board. Initially they said that I could not get this by email. I wanted to find out the exact details of what's wrong with the Logic Board and waited to hear from them for two days. On Monday the Apple store informed me it was my Logic Board.
#GFXCARDSTATUS EXTERNAL DISPLAY PC#
It has lasted just 1.5 years and as a student I just don't have the funds to get this fixed (could probably get a decent PC for that money). Instead, I get an email advising me that I have to physically go to the store to get the technical details of the fault.This is so disappointing. I wanted the technical details of the fault emailed to me so I could get a second opinion. Today I was advised by a store personnel that it was a "Logic Board " fault and had to be replaced (costs approx 400GBP). This time I was advised that the technicians would run a detailed diagnostic test and they suspected that it was a Logic Board or RAM issue. But it wasn't the case and I had to travel to go again. I was advised to delete Sophos and everything would be fine. I recently took it to Genius Bar in UK and was advised it was a 3rd party conflict (Sophos anti-virus) issue. However, after not bothering with it for many hours (busy with work) I would be able to turn the machine on and use it for 5-15mins and would experience another kernel panic. Started getting kernel panics recently and after every panic attack the machine would beep 3 times repeatedly.
#GFXCARDSTATUS EXTERNAL DISPLAY INSTALL#
on an incompatible machine the software has no effect but it does allow for install and be ready to run when booting a compatible machine).I purchased my Macbook pro 1.5 years ago in Aug 2010 (did not purchase Apple care for extended warranty). (iii) Allow for install on another computer even if that other computer is not a compatible machine (i.e. (ii) Allow for install in “target disk mode on another machine Allow or install on in single-user mode (that works) How can I install gfxCardStatus when I cannot get the machine to boot?
#GFXCARDSTATUS EXTERNAL DISPLAY MANUAL#
I had previously found this online: where a manual procedur is posted.
Is gfxCardStatus indeed a possible solution by forcing the use of “integrated only” early enough in the process to allow boot to complete? I have the following questions for the author (and thank you for developing this software in the first place). Reading this post, the issue seems to be the same as the one reported by ttrtilley (and others). It would be great if we could use gfxCardStatus to always force the usage of the internal GPU.Ī genius bar rep suggested gfxCardStatus because my video card is bad and the system crashes before it completes the boot. Note: if I let the ATI* and AMD* extensions in place, my MBP freezes during the boot sequence Today gfxCardStatus is used by a lot of the owners of early 2011 MBPs who have troubles with the external Radeon GPU.įor example, to be able to boot my MBP 8.2, I must remove the ATI* and AMD* extensions, but in this case, the selected GPU is the Radeon GPU and gfxCardStatus is not able to force the usage of the integrated GPU because it detects an external display even I have no plugged external display !. Ogattaz gives an excellent description of this problem in: This problem also occurs when booted "Safe Mode". kext files to get it to boot all the way to login screen. Strangely enough, it DOES allow "Discrete Only" and also allows Dynamic.
