I restarted it and pressed ESC then F2. My only options were memory test, which I did and it checked out ok, and hard drive check. I did the hard drive check and it tells me "no hard drive installed". So what'sup with that and how do I get this PC to boot up?

Mike @aactech are you out there? You've rescued me before!

this unit comes either with no GPU, the R9 M380 or R9 M470.
I know that last 2 are quite same and require like 45W.


But those are from 2015/2016, so quite aged.
Since we know power usage/tdp, cooling, connection type and form factor, would there be any newer version, either by AMD or Nvidia? With similar or may more VRAM?
Would be great if there is any mobile gpu with less than 45w around from like 2020 or so which can get placed into this beauty, even its bit painful work due chassis design.
This is not about gaming, more about video editing and general compatibility.
Thanks.

I keep having video graphic failures and re-installing the driver doesn’t help. The video graphics are integrated into the processor (Intel Core i3-6100T) so I’m guessing that I need to replace the processor. How hard is it do this? I’ve already reviewed the iFixit info on cracking open the case to get to where the processor is, does the processor just plug right into it’s socket? Is there a different fix that I’m not thinking of?
