Problems? See this thread at archive.org.
Please note that I have upgraded to Windows 7, 4 months ago.
Well, after a night of gaming on my P-7811 FX I wake up the next morning to turn on my laptop and I noticed a screen distortion and fuzziness to the top center of my screen. I let it run to the desktop and it wouldn't go away, I updated all of my drivers and even eventually tried Choders fix after there seemed to be no hope left. (Didn't Work)
Here's where I got confused, I plugged in my laptop to a different monitor and the screen displayed near perfectly.
I restarted my laptop one more time and the fuzziness was completely gone.
Unfortunately, I noticed there were almost white/discoloration dots around my screen, like my laptop had white chicken pocks.
Also, the mouse seemed to almost camoflauge in with the crazy brightness. (I could deal with it when I set the desktop back to white.
As I got to my desktop I noticed my screen was abnormally bright. (Enough to hurt my eyes and give me a headache after trying to fix it for some time)
I defaulted all of the settings and restarted after scanning for anymore software issues. (Guess I should have ruled that out when I plugged in the monitor)
Anyways, I'm completely clueless if there is a fix, and what could have possibly caused this issue. I've had this laptop for a little under a year now and my warranty is voided, the most unfortunate part is that I was supposed to meet a craigslist buyer the same day. (I told him the deal was off for now)
Any suggestions/tips/potential fixes would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance to whoever posts, I'll be checking quite frequently.
