Fuzzy grey screen sometimes?

[Daniel Burton]

Hey guys i have had this problem for ages now and i have no idea what it could be and i have not known or seen this problem before. On my Windows 8 Samsung NP3530EC Laptop, my screen sometimes randomly goes grey and fuzzy and i have looked into what i thought may have been the problem which i thought was the screen cable and i have moved it about gently and took it out and put it in again and dont make no difference and i no its not the screen as i have had 2 screens for my laptop now so only thing i thinking it could be is ram or cpu or gpu fault anyone have any ideas?

Hi, if you can try an external monitor, if on the external you have a good picture, you know that the GPU is maybe alright. But if you have the same picture, you know that the GPU is the one that is defective.

Hi yeah i have tried an external monitor and the output display is fine it is just on my laptop screen it goes fuzzy and grey and the strange thing is that if i change screen resolution when it goes dodgey it changes it back to normal again.

You can try reinstalling the driver for the video.

I seem to be already up to date with my video driver unless it possible the latest few updates have sent it like shown in pic.

What I wanted to say is to uninstall the driver and reinstall it after, if the driver is corrupted, the new installation will correct the driver.
