    i have the dancing pixels when i move the windows around like when i move a ie browser around i can see the top part kind of dancing..

    Is that the only place where i would be seeing this? Or does it also show up when doing other things ?

    You can see them only from certain angles, when you are looking at 90degrees or upside down it should be fine.

    But you can resolve that problem with updating your bios to newer version, ie .59. You can find it on Lenovo site.

    But its crucial that you uninstall your display driver first and afterthat preform bios update.

    Uhh dunno, I did as i said to you and dancing pixels are gone, of course with latest display driver from lenovo site... Try uninstalling and installing display drivers.

    As far as i know with that method your dancing pixels should disappear but again you must first install bios than install latest display drivers in that order, its only way it works according to the lenovo official forums...
