Plugging in the power adapter before waking from sleep??

Hey everyone,

Just another question with my X301. If I am at work for example, running on AC then put it to sleep, unplug and go home, then plug the power adapter back in and wake it up, the screen is completely messed it up. It has lines and colours flashing all down it like crazy, sort of like when your video card is completely messed up. It's just bright colours and lines going up and down flashing and flickering. I have to put it back to sleep, unplug the power, wake it up on battery, THEN plug the power adapter back in and it always works.

Has anyone else seen this or know what might cause it? Windows 7 32 bit edition here, it's really annoying no idea why it does that. It works perfect any other time. Two months ago the backlight on my LCD went out so Lenovo replaced the whole LCD panel and inverter so doesn't seem hardware related..

Hi edokid

Same here, X301 Win 7 32 bit.
It appears to be a well known problem, related to the graphic-chipset driver.
Don't know if Lenovo/Intel will ever fix it, it is now a lot of time this bug is known.

Bye
