I am having problems with my dad's laptop display and the tech guys claimed that the display port on the motherboard is "damaged" which supposedly is the cause behind the flickering on the display and why it goes blank when you move the display a little bit forwards or backwards.
While I was using the laptop after I got it back I was busy looking at a number of display options and the one in a separate window asked if I wanted to use an external display exclusively which I checked,applied and when I wanted started up the laptop later on that evening the display was blank? I can use an external display but it really keeps me locked to one spot and I can't use it anywhere...
Ever since the problem with the display happened a number of screensavers whether they are 3D or not will crash and according to the event viewer in the following two log entries:
"A request to disable the Desktop Window Manager was made by process (Moolah3D.scr)" and
"The Desktop Window Manager was unable to start because composition was disabled by a running application"
Those screensavers ran fine before.I just hope the tech guys didn't mess up the laptop somehow.
I have tried to find that option again but cannot find it.Can anyone please help me?
Thanks.
BTW the laptop runs Vista Home Basic SP2 and it is a Compaq Presario CQ60 Notebook PC.
