Hey guys,
Well im new to the forums and new to sager notebooks but ive heard a lot of good about them and thats why i chose to invest in one. i got the 8790 with a
17" WSXGA+ "WideAngles" TFT Active Matrix w/ATI Mobility Radeon 9700 w/256MB DDR
3.4GHz Intel Pentium® 4 HT w/512k L2 Cache - 800MHz FSB
1,024MB (2 SODIMMS) PC3200 DDR400 Dual Channel Memory
40GB Ultra ATA/100 Hard Drive at 4,200 RPM
Combo 8X DVD/24x10x24 CD-RW
Well after doing all the updates i could find i finally tried to play Rome total war and when i started the game everything worked fine until tiny little pixelish specks appeared on the screen, then it got progressivly worse and worse (in screenshots). Now after numerous driver switches and trials with settings the screen itself seems to be having trouble. The image seems to go to a negative (like film) jumps during the game but i cant take a screen shot of it so it must be my moniter,also the image jumps like bad tracking on a tv! even when the game shuts off my background takes 3 minutes to stablize! Also when i close the game and restart it the problem is still there, i have to completely shut the laptop down in order for it to start fresh, before the same problem arises. I cant believe it
. I tried some other games on it (namely rainbow 6 raven shield) and came up with the same results. So what is the problem? drivers or is my card/screen bad? anyone have the same problems? thanks for your time
