    I recently ran into this problem with my G73JH:

    http://a.yfrog.com/img153/9555/lasersw.png

    I was using stock drivers/settings and when the problem came up I updated catalyst to 10.10, then 10.12 and flashed the bios and vbios like it says in the stickies, and still encounter the same thing. Has anyone else run into this? Does it mean I have to deal with the warranty?

    Thanks for your time.

    Have you tried updating DirectX?

    Hum i believe if you move to Catalyst 10.8 that would stop. If i remember correctly i read someone else having these problems with 10.12.

    Wait for other responses or try 10.8

    I have DirectX 11, and reflections are turned off. I changed all the settings around to test if it went away and it still shows up even on the lowest settings.

    It could also be a corrupt data in the game. You could try using the repair tool located wherever you downloaded the game. Starcraft II > Support > Repair

    Thats a nifty tool triplefives.

    Unfortunately I still get those lights. Its weird too because the lasers dont appear immediately after a game starts. After ~5 seconds of mining the lights start to appear more.
