Hello! I need to replace the internal fans (I think it's a block with the fan and a heatsink) of my X7859 and was wondering which replacement I would buy. I found some for other Medion Erazer models but none for mine, could someone please tell me which model (or the fans and heatsink of which model) is compatible with mine? Thanks in advance!

Hello! I need to replace the keyboard of my X7859 and was wondering which keyboard I would buy. I found some for other Medion Erazer models but none for mine, could someone please tell me which model of keyboard (or keyboard of which model) is compatible with mine? Thanks in advance!

Hello wonderful people! I've had a X7859 for a little more than 2 years and was pretty happy with it until it started randomly rebooting a few months ago. At first it was occasional but now it's more 5-10x a day and it's clearly interfering with my work as a freelancer (software engineering). It happens on my main OS Windows 10 but also on Ubuntu. It's not linked to the temperatures as I've been monitoring them and am employing a cooling pad. I don't have any software/OS errors and as it's happening on both OSes I think it's more a hardware issue. I've found that possibly an update of my BIOS could help (I have the 1.07.05 installed), I tried to install the 1.07.07 from http://www1.medion.de/downloads/index.pl?op=detail&id=19081&type=treiber&lang=uk but I have no idea how to install it as the GUI doesn't accept the new bios files and the DOS version gives me an error. I don't find any update of the bios on Windows Update either. Has this problem occurred to other people? I could use some help here 🙂

Hey Fishtown, Thanks that's exactly what I needed! I managed to do it yesterday and it went flawlessly. I also noticed I have a free space for some more RAM, I'll add some later. @TPFLegionaire : With all due respect did you even read my post? As I wrote in my first post I already read the manual and took off every screw from the back but it was the one hiding under the keyboard was blocking me. And I'm not doing a PhD but a Master's degree.

Hello, On Windows you can turn the led of the keyboard off by installing the control center of Medion and turn them off from the software itself. On Ubuntu (or other linux distros I surmise) you cannot install the control center and thus cannot turn off the lights. I also tried the Fn key + the shortcuts for the leds but to no avail (the other Fn+shortcuts work). Could you please tell me how I can manage to turn these led off? Thanks, Kind regards, Xavier

I also would like to inquire about the warranty. As my HDD died a few months after I bought it it should have been covered by the warranty. My Swiss provider just answered me and advised me to check with you directly for any kind of repair/refund. Now I just bought a Seagate barracuda, the same model as the one in the laptop itself on Lazada. Would there be a way to get reimbursed for this HDD? Or will you send me another one? How would you advise me to proceed here? Kind regards, Xavier

Hello, The HDD in my laptop died after about 4 months of use. I got some cyclic redundancy problems (on Windows, input/output error in Ubuntu) that are caused by a hardware problem and have to change it. The Swiss provider of my laptop is taking too much time to answer about my problem and as I'm in Thailand anyway undertaking a Master Degree online I need my laptop on a day-to-day basis to work. I thus ordered a new one and want to change it myself (I'm a software engineer with experience in pc assembly). I tried this morning, I unscrewed the 12 screws from behind the computer and 1 hidden under a black rubber wrap. Despite this there must still have been 1 or 2 screws remaining that prevented me to open the laptop to change the disk but I couldn't find them.I also couldn't find anything relevant in the manual or this forum (or even Google). So I'm writing you here to ask you this : Could you please tell me where are the remaining screws I have to take off to open my laptop? Are they under the keyboard that I should also take off? Thanks in advance for your answer, Kind regards, Xavier PS: MSN is 30025637, laptop bought by Digitec.ch order n°22285428, opened ticket at Digitec n° 4381278
