On board graphics are spotty.

[Toolman55]

Hello,

I purchased the computer below. It has run great. But every once in a while the on board graphics don't work. I see the HP splash screen but then it goes black. A re-boot usually fixes the problem.

Is there anything that can be done? Other than tearing it open and installing a graphics card?
I've never worked on anything this small, I'm a little gun shy.

Any advice you have would be appreciated. Thank you.

How often is "every once in a while?" If it's LESS than once a month - I'd leave it as is....

My network card doesn't connect to the modem every once in a while....which for me is once ever couple of months... It's only a small pain to reboot that always fixes it.

According to the specs for that size version of your PC, there is only a mini PCI Express slot. I don't know of any graphics adapter that would fit that.
