Did you use to have GT540m installed? Try checking to make sure it's detected. If it's not detected sounds like your graphic card is not working properly. What you can try to do as a last resort is to do a factory install to see if it wll reinstall the nvidia driver. Make sure you back up all your important things as this will wipe out your computer back to stock and everything will be lost. Restart your computer and keep pressing F9. If you have any questions or comments you can email me at [email protected] which I reside in the U.S
