    Hello,

    I recently came into possession of a semi faulty MSI Megabook L715. I say its semi faulty as it can still function, although it has a tonne of artifacts on screen.

    Now I'm 99% sure its the GPU thats gone or maybe the soldering has melted and is not connected properly because if I disable the screen and connect to an external monitor I still get artifacts.

    I'm wondering if anyone here has that problem as a google search couldn't find any results.

    I will try repairing this but I would like to know if people have a suggestion as to what I can do.

    Thanks!
