XGA -> SXGA+

#1 Post by denisky » Fri Oct 17, 2008 8:37 am

Is it possible to upgrade the XGA LCD on my R51e to the SXGA+? Is there anything that I should replace other than the LCD?




Edit: Sorry, I posted it in wrong forum. Please move it. Thanks.

Does it have an Intel video chipset? Which one?

The R51e model comes with ATI Mobility Radeon Xpress 200M only. I forgot to tell, my LCD screen size is 15 inch.



Mod, please move this thread to the R series forum. Thanks.

In addition to a bare LCD you'd need an inverter and a cable for SXGA+.

I have another question, if I can't find SXGA+ screen for R51e around, is it possible to install the LCD which is designed for other brand laptop (SXGA+ LCD for Toshiba/Dell/)?
