    Everytime I boot Up my t500 it will load all of the startup applications and then the screen will proceed to turn on and off two or three times. Any ideas what this could be? I suspect it has something to do with the switchable CPUs although it does this when boy the integrated and dedicated cards are active. Should this be somehing to worry about and any ideas on how to fix it?

    Nevermind I found a solution in some previous posts. It seems it had something to do an external display program that automatically opens on startup.
