ANYONE CAN HELP PLEASE!

Bro

That your processor is too weak!
1.20GHz in 2018.
There's really nothing much you can do. Even if you upgrade the RAM/HDD, its still going to be slow.

If you were in port harcourt, i would have recommended someone for you that could help upgrade that processor.

Let me rephrase, you don't actually upgrade your processor, you change it. Most motherboards I've seen, the processor chip is removable. So simply put, you take that processor chip out and look for one with a higher processing speed. It may or may not match, you keep trying till you get the one that match.

1.9 GHZ,
The model isn't same as the speed. 1.9GHZ is the frequency and not model. Model can be something like Core i5 2450M.

Go to your computer system properties and check it.

Well., if it runs an atom processor (The lowest in the league of intel processors) then it's a bad Idea!!!

If you are running a celeron processor, play in low settings and never update to PES 2011 or higher.

Which driver pack did you use? I'll advice you Google the right version of display adapter for your laptop, you will definitely see reviews.

Some driver always come with bugs you need to check reviews especially if you're downloading online.

bro that's the processor

Yeah, I just gave a recommendation. You can play in low settings but it's no guarantee you'll enjoy the game due to frequent lag.

Also if your PC was supposed to last for a 2 yrs, be prepared to ditch it in about a year and half.

After booting? Do you get any image immediately you power it on?

NO FORM OF DISPLAY WHATSOEVER. Screen remains off like you never turned the PC on

OK when you power it on, press the caplock button on your keyboard repeatedly to see if the caplock light will off and on.

Also note that 6930p have two types of motherboard, one is graphic and non-graphic.

The one with graphic chip always have this kind of fault, If the caplock is not blinking you can check the ram slot, if after checking or changing the ram and it still doesn't display then fault is from a fail graphic chip.

You can take it to a laptop engineer for diagnosis.

The RAM has been checked and it's fine. If it's from graphic chip, would it require a replacement? I'm just skeptical about going to any technician I'm not sure of due to my experience with a phone technician.

You will hardly see an engineer with the tool to replace the graphic chip unless if you're in Enugu state, I know someone there that can replace it but it expensive, you could spend between 10-12k, which if you add little money you can get a used motherboard.


If you take it to an engineer, the issue is going to be resolve temporarily, depends sometimes 1 months or after 2weeks the issue will come back again.(you can give it to an engineer to reflow the grpahich chip if you're not ready to replace the motherboard and want to use the system)

The best solution is to replace the motherboard.
If you're in lagos, I can give you a used (non-graphic) at an affordable price.
