Ahh happy memories, my first ever proper graphics card was a Matrox Millenium G400, 64MB of epic win, it shit on anything friends had at the time   Sold it when it was VERY old for £40, turns out they're also amazing for bodging the output into SCART sockets on TVs so the chappy didn't mind paying through the nose for it

EDIT: aww aint it pretty?

I've searched and found that it happened to a lot of people but that there is no fix yet (not that I found anyway)  The same thing happened when Vista came out.

This was the fix for Vista

GOOD GOD YES

caps so I make it in time before you buy it. If you move a G9 too quickly your aim will spazz out turn around three times and point itself at the sky. The G9x fixes this.

Too late. I got a G9 but haven't had any problems like that yet.

I get this with my mouse (Microsoft Wireless Intellimouse 2.0) when I use it on my brothers couch for lan nights. When I'm on my wooden desk, no problems whatsoever.

Maybe it's the surface?

Girlfriend's EEEPC just died Really bad timing! I hope Asus RMA will be a good service, never done one with them before.

My laptop keeps freezing with zero response.  And its really common now, its driving me nuts. 

All that happens is I can hear my HDD making noises and then if I mash buttons on the keyboard it gets louder.  Eventually if I keep doing it, it get more frequent and sometimes unfreezes.  Once or twice (this has been happening for about 4 or 5 days now) I've seen an error message about my display driver.  I've tried uninstalling the display driver and reinstalling and it didn't work. 

The weird thing is, when I reinstalled the driver I couldnt get my full resolution   Then a Windows Update showed up and said it was an update from 12/12/2009, which I think is the day it started doing this.  So, what I gather from this is I cant get my full resolution without having crashes every 20 mins.. Any ideas?
Probably some of your hardware dying.
Anything more specific than that?  The laptop is less than a year old
It could be the hard drive. I would back up anything important asap just in case.  also find out the manufacturers name and see if they have a hdd diagnostic utility.

I'll look that up.  Also, it seems to happen a lot of the time when I open or close the top, even just a little bit

Asus RMA is painful. Very painful.

The fucking layout is confusing me. Luckily enough, I think the retailer I bought it off will cover my RMA to. So I'm trying them first to see.
