    Everex XT5000T Support thread

    I am willing to sell my non-functioning Everex XT5000T for $49.99 or best offer. Basically, it's the same issue with the GPU dying.

Here is post on Dell's website about the symptoms of defective nVidia GPUs. As you could tell from the posts below that ALOT of people with nVidia GPU's are having...

    Thanks for the sympathy TANWare. I really appreciated your help earlier in the year when I had the issue with IRQ conflict for the XT5000T with the network card and the graphics card.

    Sighs. :( Even with my cheap laptop cooler and the new bios 1.1D I still get 100 C when gaming, granted it is cooler when not gaming due to the new bios fan speed. But still it's rather a shame that the temp. get's that high. At the price I brought this laptop in July of '07, this laptop was the...

    UPDATE: So, I installed the MSI card everything has been working fine, for now. I was able to use the drivers I was previously using without any random BSOD. Now, this laptop is almost perfect all except the 100C GPU temp :eek: that I get when gaming even with the new BIOS 1.1D although idle...

    Thanks for the prompt response TANWare. I have decided to get the MSI MN54g wireless card. So do I just pop it in and disable the atheros? and also leave the wireless on switch infront of the laptop? Thanks.
