Hi,
I've had my laptop for almost 2 years now and haven't encountered an issue with it until recently. All the Adobe products I use (Photoshop, Illustrator, Premiere) as well as Sony Vegas, Valley Benchmark, and any program that I run with my graphics card has been leaving the same odd L shaped artifacts all of the screen (by run with my graphics card I mean right click->run with graphics processor).
I have uninstalled my drivers and reinstalled them ~5 times using device manager, add/remove programs, GURU3D in safe mode, preforming a "clean install" under Nvidia's custom install options, and downloading the driver directly from Nvidia.
I've checked the temperature in MSI Afterburner while using a program and it's sitting around 45 C- and also tried under clocking to no avail.
I've used another display but the artifacts are still there- probably not a monitor issue.
I've run out of ideas; I suspect it's a hardware issue.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Specs:
Aspire E5-573-56RG Laptop
Intel i5-5200U
Nvidia GeForce 940M 4GB VRAM
8 GB DDR3
250 GB SSD
1 TB HDD
Screenshots of the artifacts:
