X301 screen/graphics bug
X301 screen/graphics bug
Hi, I'm having some trouble with my X301 display... Several days ago it began to show severe screen distortion/flickering when unplugged from AC-power (see video). The distortion only occurs sporadically and disappears once I connect it to AC again, leaving some marks on the GUI behind. I have no idea what could be the cause of this, any help greatly appreciated...

Lenovo just released a new intel video driver. In the release note, they mentioned something similar to what you experienced. We may want to give it a try. You may have to go to lenovo's website to download the driver directly. My X301 has no problem so far. If the new driver does not solve the problem, I recommend calling Lenovo to have the machine checked. My X60T used to have screen flickering and they fixed it promptly. Good luck!
