Member Posts: 5	Hi there, My A3010's graphic output is failing. I am just receiving a distorted signal. Tried a range of different monitors and the TV output and getting no joy. I've dismantled the machine and found the battery has leaked and since dried. This doesn't seem to have a caused much damage in terms of where it has leaked, but there was also a lot of dust build-up around the circuit boards and chips. Could something be shorting out the graphics processors? I've had a look at the VGA output and this appears well soldered in with no sign of damage. I can upload a few pics to Flickr if it helps. Any help on how to solve the issue would be massively appreciated. Cheers, Rob.
