    Hi all

    I've noticed lately when cold boot my laptop first thing in the morning, there are graphic glitches all over the screen.

    After successfully reboot the laptop, the graphic glitches are gone. I can use the computer fine all day.

    It only happened when I started up the laptop for the first time on that day.

    What kind of issue is that? Hope it isn't the graphic chipset on its way out?

    I've swapped the hd with a working ssd, swapped the memory, checked the thermal paste on cpu and gpu and all connections (cables, ribbons etc).

    Could a LCD invertor caused the cold boot?
