IBM R40 Laptop display problems
ok the actual LCD is still intact, lights up and everything. so im thinking its either the driver or the actual graphics chip on the mobo.
for the past 4 months or so my laptop has what i call the "matrix effect" the dispaly starts to do weird things like lines and distortion. ive reverted the driver and also updated it.. it has gotten to the point where the machine just crashes and when it comes back up windows says it has recovered from a serious error, says its a driver problem according to windows and it tells me to update the driver..so i do and nothing
also the battery finally died and i got a replacement battery but the laptop doesnt recognize it ...when i unplug the power from it it stays on for 10 secs then shuts off
can anyone help???
