I have a white 13" MacBook:
2.16 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
4 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM
Mac OSX v. 10.6.8
I think it's 2008...purchased used, so I can't remember exactly.
ANYWAY, when I switch spaces, graphics and fonts intermittently become blurry. Most of the time, it corrects itself in varying amounts of time. In other cases, I have to click on it to clear it up and "bring it in focus". If I try to take a screen shot it clears up, so I can't show you what it looks like.
I have re-installed OSX and thought that I did a format prior to this, but did notice that when I looked in the "all documents" that there are things there I had on the old drive. I don't know where they came from, or why they're still there.
Background: I used to play a game called Second Life and I've read that some viewers can mess up a graphics card. During the time I played, my "frames per second" had been 17-30 depending on the sim. Then there was an immediate drop down to 5 fps and literally as low as 1 fps. I was on/off the game and cannot pinpoint exactly what I had done. It seemed at first that the game was the only thing affected until I noticed the blurriness start in spaces. I have tried to research and find someone else with this problem, only to come up short. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
