Evening everyone.
Ive been fixing this computer for a friend. Not sure exactly how to phrase this fromt he begining, so i'll pull some cliff notes.
PC was running vista, LOADED with issues
backed up data
put on Windows 7
updated drivers from ATI website
issues are as follows:
Even viewer shows a atikmdag.sys error (seems its only when it starts up)
At random times the video will STOP SHOWING completely on the LCD, she tried to restart, and claims there is no video.
Ive tried to do the same thing, to where there is no video, and it will not happen. Every time i have restarted, there have been no issues.
The laptop is a Toshiba Sat A350D with an ATI Radeon 3100 video adapter.
Ive had the laptop in my possession for a total of maybe 2 days, where it has not been able to re-produce the error.
At the moment, i dont have it here, but she may (most likely) will call back with the issue.
The laptop was updated from Vista, to 7. There have been NO hardware changes.
I have been taking a look at http://www.atikmdag.com/?p=23 But, most of these issues are specific to windows Vista.
Any suggestions from the vets?
