Toshiba Qosmio Graphics Card Problem
A couple of years ago I typed the words ” Best laptop to buy ” In Google. The laptop that came up top was the Toshiba Qosmio. I was horrified becuase these laptops suffer with graphics card problems. So i decided to try to understand why so many companies were trying to push this laptop as a good laptop to buy. The screen was the major selling point as it has a very high resolution good quality x black screen. Then i found other companies saying it was great just so that they could make a sale. Laptop repair companies have seen this laptop in thier workshops many many times. The sad thing is that often it cannot be repaired as the graphics bga chipset is moulded into the board and cannot be changed. Even Toshibs laptop repair companies like www.ToshibaLaptopRepairs.co.uk are refusing to fix this laptop as thier is only a 1 in 10 chance of repair by trying a re-flow on the chipset. The best thing to do is buy a new motherboard however it seems this is a very common problem and you may as well just purchase a new laptop. The sad part about all this is that many poor customers have paid well over £1000.00 for this laptop and havent seen great returns.
