FIXED! I shimmed the Graphics Chip using Pennies! I stacked them under
the gray cover, and then on top of the cover and then closed the
computer up and it works perfectly!!! Thanks for help, you saved my
computer!
Using pennies sounds seriously dangerous. Anything that conducts
electricity that might get loose inside is asking for a short-circuit

Is this a future "computer Darwin Award?" Loose metal in an
electrical/electronic environment can be entertaining but usually only
once per unit. Peace, Dennis
