RE: nVIDIA GeForce 8400M G
What have you tried so far?
Have you updated video card drives?
Gives something to work here, we are not mind readers.

RE: nVIDIA GeForce 8400M G
the notebook book screen is always separated on 8 "small screen" .
RE: nVIDIA GeForce 8400M G
There's no option (function key) that could be causing a change in output is there???
Take a picture of the screen with a camera, upload it to a photo sharing site, and put a link on here so we can see what's happening. You're being very stingy with the details if you're trying to get it solved.

Most resolutions indicate the replacement of the motherboard. Or the GPU chip if removable.
Other than that, perhaps if your laptop is still under warranty, you can take it to a Fujitsu service center to get looked at.
Otherwise you may need to test with a different video card if at all possible.

RE: nVIDIA GeForce 8400M G
The nVidia graphics chipsets in the 8xxx series have known issues that cause them to eventually deteriorate. And since (to my knowledge) none of them are separate from the motherboards, only option is replacement.
I knew this when I was given a laptop a while back. It had no issues at the time other than software, but it's a ticking time bomb. Either one day it will burn up and die on me, or maybe I'll get lucky? From what I've read about the issue, I think it's more just a matter of time.
In your case, time has run out, it seems. Time to go hunting for a new motherboard or new laptop. If you want to try to keep the same laptop, you could try searching to see if they made a model with a different video chipset. On mine (Dell XPS M1530), some had the nvidia graphics, and some had intel. The intel based ones had no such issues. 'Course, they also can't exactly play just any game you want, either.... but if you have an 8400 it won't be as big a loss as from my 8600GT.

have anyone try to replace the graphics card nividia 8400M on notebook Amilo Pa2548 ?
RE: nVIDIA GeForce 8400M G
You have to verify this yourself.
If that's the case, it's likely a better idea to replace the laptop than to go for a new mobo.

Or if you've already opened up the laptop, I'd imagine it'd be pretty easy to tell.
RE: nVIDIA GeForce 8400M G
but you need to ask yourself, is it worth it to replace the card or just get a newer laptop, from the beginning...
and if you are out of luck, the card may be soldered so no replacing possible...
PS: nVidia GeForce 8400M go on eBay (Germany) for around €75 used...

Of course if the system board is available it is also an option, but if the reason for the overheating is not addressed it will happen again.

Whatever you decide to do, don't use a hot air gun,or torch, and other things that will just destroy the motherboard.
