    Yeah!!!
    I DID upgraded my 1600x900 AOU to the FHD model when I found this error on my Manager Device:
    A driver (service) for this device has been disabled. An alternate driver may be providing this functionality. (Code 32)

    I've attached two screen shots...

    anyone has an idea of what this error means?

    Had the same issue as you one time. I went through and removed the driver for each and every thread, all eight of them. Then I restarted and everything was fine.

    Think he meant 8 because when you open device manager you have 8 threads showing but its all run by the one driver so you only have to uninstall one of them to uninstall the lot :) Glad it sorted it for ya!

    ^^^ That is a nastly accusation :confused:

    I could not open PNG files on any web site until I made a change in IE 9 settings.
    I posted the thing about express gate as more of a warning to others. I only used it to see if png would open with the splash top browser in EG.
    Also temps seem to go very high when just browsing in EG.

    In no way am I accusing you of planing a virus or malware, I am sure the board would not allow it any way. Sorry if my tone lead you too that conclusion, I was very frustrated with the PNG issue I had when I posted

    Dude Don't rub it in, I have my own business so need to be on top of IE becasue my clients for the most part are resistant to change. I admire your ingenuity for changing a screen! When people ask me about a better screen I recoomend a new machine or external monitor!
