    The display on my Acer 1642WLMI cuts out when playing online poker (Pokerstars & Pokerroom) I've sent it to Acer for repair and they said that it passed all their test and they couldn't help me.

    Can anyone help where Acer support can't, or am i going to have to buy a new laptop?

    So it works for everything else but these two different(?) online poker apps? Hmmm maybe someone's trying to tell you not to gamble. I mean, if this isn't a "sign" from upstairs, I don't know what is.

    Online poker if just for fun lol =), lol odd that it does that, try rienstalling the poker games. If that doesnt work you can try getting it reformated if you really want to play poker.
