I have an Acer A717-72G-76V1 Laptop. It seems to be fast and fairly reliable EXCEPT:
I have installed Obsidian on other systems and don't have this problem. (My Surface Pro 3 works beautifully, but it only has a 13-inch screen, and the Acer has a 17-inch screen.) The Acer is my normal workhorse apart from my desktops. None of my other computers have exhibited this problem in Brave, FB, and Obsidian.
I am willing to learn: Could someone please point me to authoritative tech manuals, information, books, or sites that will explain in high detail the workings of different monitors and graphic card combinations?
Does anyone have specific experience regarding this type of problem? Could anyone point me to a resource or two where I might be able to find ways to pinpoint the problem and find a solution?
Does anyone know what this type of problem is called, specifically? I ask because it's possible that I am not describing it correctly...)
I Have 59 years dealing with computers and their problems. Not many things throw me, but this one does. It disturbs me that I don't know what causes the problem and don't know where to look for solutions.
Thank you for your help.
Mike
- In Facebook within my Brave browser, when I pull the mouse pointer across a picture, it leaves a trail or cluster of artifacts that spoil the look of the picture. Clicking outside the picture usually resets the picture to normal.
- I recently installed Obsidian, and I have the same problem in the application no matter which theme I use. Sometimes I have to reload the app to get rid of the artifacts.
