    Hi

    It worked for me once to run the Disk error checking in Windows .
    You can find it in the menu with disk defragmentation and system recovery.
    (I've got the Dutch version so i dunno exactly how the menu's called ^^)

    hope this is the solution to your problem!

    If possible connect an external monitor to the Acer and test. If there are no screen issues on the external monitor then the problem lies with the Acer screen - either the screen itself or the connections to it.

    OTOH if the issue remains the fault lies with the Acer graphics - try updating/reinstalling the driver. If this has no effect there may be a motherboard problem.
