Hey Guys

I have an ION that boots up with no issues but when you touch any game on the screen it goes black(no sound either) and nothing after that. At first I thought it might be the hard drive so I changed that out but it still does it with the replaced HD. The only thing I can think of is the IO board is bad or is starting to go bad. But when it boots up it shows the IO as passed, not sure if that matters or not. Has anyone else ran into this?

orizzle:
Which model, motherboard, and software version? How much ram in the system? Have you tried an old game like Great Solitaire or 11up that runs in 640x480?

Ion with the Asus gold motherboard, 512mb of ram, hard drive is 2014 ION. I have tried old games, new games, changing ram and the results are the same every time.
It boots, runs all of the demos with no issues. Only craps out when you select a game.

I've seen the Asus boards have problems with the video chip that occurs when the game uses 3d rendering (e.g. Beer pong) but not in older games like 11up. Never seen it not play any games. Sounds like the only thing left to swap out is the motherboard... I would take everything out of the machine and run it on my bench first.

try and swap out the ram stick with another if you have one kicking around. maybe even try to swap slots. ram gets weird. could be a bad slot too.

failing that, just do a reinstall. if you don't have the disks, one of us can upload a ISO of the CD's so you can burn a set.

otherwise... ebay D945GCLF up a board and replace it.
