Lenovo Y560 Display goes blank or black and the message pops up at the task bar lower right bottom of screen saying momentarily; Display driver failed to load, and recovered this is upon loading some pages on the web and including youtube pages too.
What is Lenovo's Response to fix this issue? anyone have any advice? send the laptop back to the manufacturer? or ?
anyone familiar with this?
I heard there might be a better Display to add to this laptop, if i can match the plug type and purchase one and cross the fingers to get it to work or load, is this possible too as an option.
any info would be appreciated, thank you.
Perhaps, i should look the manufacture website for an updated display driver? hopefully there might be one available.
UPDATE; Downloaded a driver at Lenovo, and must have fixed it , have not seen a issue so far ! thanks for the input everyone.)) NOT had a single problem since updating the Display Driver !

Hey, thanks, i went to the lenovo download site, and did the latest AMD display device driver, and to no success.
The driver kept failing , i took it back to frys, and i was on vacation , was two days outside of the return policy and they gave me a new laptop even same model and brand exchange. I was happy with that, I did however notice, the other laptop fry's sold me was a used and tried to pass it off as new, because i would not upgrade to a newer laptop and insisted on the sales priced one. i could tell in the keyboard keys when i got this one.
Also, theres a place in the laptop their service dept guy went to and showed me the blue screen of death error, when he went to verify what i said was correct, he also went to see if i downloaded the new device driver in the laptop.
He then asked if the manager was going to help me with it because it was out of the return policy date.
I told him she had approved it and i lived out of town , was on vacation and had approval to bring it in, otherwise i would not of made a trip and sent it to lenovo instead.
I love this laptop though. I am going to modify it to give it a special boost in performance without paying the heavy price.
thanks for the bios, what is the difference in the bios update? I would hate to have more of a whitelist and get kicked off with my extra goodies i been adding such as my new wifi lan card.
do you have the bios link, well ok, i can go to lenovo driver site and get it.
but hey, thank you for the information just as well, i appreciate this.
