I work in a computer repair center. Been away for a few days since my computer went down. I have an m2010 as my main computer- its a great laptop* but apparently its plagued by an issue similar to the RROD on XBOX 360. The video cards in these things go bad all the time- I've used my m2010 for about a year straight before it died- roughly 8hrs a day 9-5.

Read a lot of articles and did my research, thought it was the motherboard at first, but after reading a lot on this I found it was the vid card. After I replaced the vid card- no more black screen. I got a newly used video card off ebay since you can't get them new anywhere. How the hell do you refurbish a video card? Anyway the video card came- it works but it the heatsink on it was dinged up and bent. Had to take it apart and use the heatsink from the old card. Good thing I did because the seller on ebay- after talking to him said that he's seen this happen to a lot of m2010's so he applied extra thermal paste to it. Good thing I took it apart because dude def put the thermal paste on top of the old thermal paste (you're suppose to clean off the old stuff first- and you're only suppose to put a dab of thermal paste- too much is bad).

Anyway computer is back up- made a quick vid just to show it. I'll use a better camera next time. This was kinda a spur of the moment thing so we used a cellphone XD

  • can u make a video on how to open up the casing of M2010?

  • Sorry for the late response, I work with a dell service tech so he told me how to do it but the diagrams in the service manual are the same:

    google m2010 service manual

    Just push a flat head in the two slots on the left and right sides. You do one at a time and when you push in the tiny flat head it releases the spring loaded hooks that hold down the top panel cover. Similar to how the laptop lid is held down by those hooks. The diagram explains it better

  • PC/hard drive also went down, replaced it with a 1.5 TB HD. Also check j00r PM's Van.

  • Checking them now... My computer was down for a few days.. D:

see all
