Hello everyone,

Try going into VGA mode.

To do this, when you are booting, tap F8 repeatedly.

When you come to the Advanced Options Screen, select VGA Mode (See pic, below...)

Hmmmm

Did you Boot into VGA mode to get it to work better?  Or was it just a random thing ? 

If it was a random thing (all of a sudden it's better) that would lead me to the same conclusion (that it was a hardware problem).  That would worry me a bit more,  if it is still under warranty, I would exchange it.   

One thing you should consider, is that it could have been caused by some kind of specific factor that you weren't aware of (for example, if you had A video running in Windows Media Player, with Windows Media Player minimized when it happened....or another example, would be like if there was a graphics driver autorun program running in a specific configuration that you weren't aware of (usually those types of programs show up down by your clock as little icons) ).   

Actually there are a few pieces of information that I do not know that would help.  Is this a new notebook?  How long have you had the notebook?   And when did you first notice this problem?    Had you done any changes to the configuration (or is it possible that someone else did..)?
