[QUOTE="kapers, post: 1601565, member: 330859"] I asked them about that when I dropped it off last time and they said it is not soldered on and I did get a replaced upgraded graphics card. I got it back yesterday and turned it on for first time today - after 20 minutes it happened again. They said the issue was that the 'graphics card' was not 'reset' to the system when installed...?!? When I picked it up they said it froze a couple of times, which prompted them to try fix it, but mentioned that when it did freeze it did not do the same thing on the computer screen they had linked to mine when doing the diagnosis. This lead him to suggest that if it happens again that I should bring it back and they will try putting a new LCD screen on it. When I got home and this happened I thought about what he said and remembered that in the past I have had grey 'burn' marks creeping up on the screen... would this be connected? Does changing the LCD screen fix freezes/pixelation? [/QUOTE]
