    I've had my m15x for about a year and a half now. I've had some minor issues with it in the past but nothing too serious.

    Today I opened up my PC and the screen is being weird. The colors on the screen seem to have the wrong pigments or something. Wherever there is the color black or a similar dark color, it is displayed in an odd blue color that looks like the hue is off.

    Sorry for the bad explanation but its hard to describe. Also, I know no one messed with the setting cuz I am the only one with password. If anyone has had similar issues or can help me at all thatd be great.
