    Something is wierd with my screen, it goes blank then comes back again when windows is loading just as the ATI thing loads in my system tray. it usually happens if i try to open up a buncha stuff when windows isnt done loading everything.

    I have an E1505 with the WSXGA+ Screen and the ATI X1300 Card, could it be a driver issue?

    I recall that happening with my ATI-based notebook every time after installing a new driver. It's almost certainly driver related, but not something I'd necessarily worry about.
