Screen glitches and T43 frozen

Today my computer (T43 1871-CTO) did something strange: if I move it, it freezes and the screen becames totally scrambled. So I have to reboot and during the POST I moved PC, so it freezes and starts beeping continuously.
I think the GPU starts failing/unsoldering, am I wrong? If yes, are anyone of you selling a T43 mainboard at a resonably price?

You're my last hope.

Your T43 has an Intel integrated graphics option, so I don't think that it's desoldering from the rest of the board, but it seems like something is failing - big time - nevertheless...

You may want to post a WTB (want to buy) ad in the forum's Marketplace.

Good luck.

I posted a WTB and someone (RealBlackStuff) told me I can put a R52 mainboard in my T43. Is there any differences to keep in mind between the two boards?

About the only difference is most of the R52 boards have a firewire port that your T43 doesn't have an opening for, but it's just a plug in daughter card so there is no problem leaving it out.

Today I took a look on ebay and I saw a lot of 26xx mainboard for T43. Is that a clever buying (I know, I should change the heatsink)? Or I should buy an intel graphic mainboard for some good reason (eg temperature/battery lifetime/cosmic convergence)?

PS: Actually my battery has a lifetime of 180 - 200 mins.
