1 Thing I did the next day was to go to PCPitStop and run the free system
test they have. Every thing except the video card rated good. for the
video card they recommended updating drivers. I did this with the there
PCPitStop driver alert, only have a pay version.
I remember the first couple of times I tried running full screen on the
Acer 5315 there were problems. Have to see if I can shake the cobwebs out
and remember what I did to fix it.
