    Umm switch it off and on again?

    I'm confused, is it a pop up on screen, or an actual problem with the screen?

    The odd thing about Windows, problems can be solved by a simple restart.

    It's funny how so many people haven't figured that out. I've had so many friends ask me about comp problems and that's the VERY FIRST thing I tell them. And it usually does the trick (except for those people who have an obsession with porn :roflmao: )

    Well I am just glad it is fixed. Haven't had this laptop that long, was worried something was wrong with it. :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    I was on a high speed train, and the transformers broke down so we managed to just glide in to the next station. They switched off the computers and switched them on again and we were off on our way! :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:
