Hi,
this is the first time I post here and it regards a problem I have with a second-hand laptop (IBM thinkpad t41) that I just bought.
The laptop has got an ATI Radeon Mobile 9000 and the problem I have is that the display on the laptop very frequently starts blinking and getting fuzzy, with apparently no reason.
The problem is especially bad when I try to send the signal to an external tv and to the display at the same time (the display gets really fuzzy and blinking, but not the tv).
I have tried to uninstall and install the drivers many times, I tried with different types of drivers (with the omega ones by the way I could not show the screen on the laptop display and on an external tv at the same time) and I tried to change several options... no result.
I do not have any problem if I unistall all the video card drivers and if I watch the screen just on an external tv. In particular, the screen on the external tv is always fine, I do not get any kind of problems here.
Any idea on how to solve this problem? I still have some weeks to give the laptop back if I want but I would rather prefer to fix it if possible.
Many thanks
Regards
