    Hi, I've had this laptop for about a month and a half now. Got it from Best Buy. Was wondering if anyone else had seen this issue or knew what the deal was.

    Whenever I attempt to play DVDs, there is a vertical strip, about an inch wide, that looks odd. Sort of pixellated or animatedish if you know what I'm trying to say. It isn't always there but it happens pretty often. My drivers are all up to date, but I am wondering if their is a bad connection somewhere that is causing this. I had another laptop that had a similar strip, but it was just black and happened all the time that was caused by a bad connection.

    Anyone else experience this? I'm not super concerned as it is still very much under warranty, but wanted to avoid having to ship it off to HP if possible.
