Hello,
somebody help please, i,ve been at this for a week and refuse to give up
Ok, first off for no reason at all my screen split in two horizontally and then windows would not start up.
After many attempts I was finally able to do a system restore via pressing F11 and took the settings back a week, this went on all night and didnt finish, but when starting up again the problem was restored.
I tried playing some fairly low spec games but after 5 minutes i would get black squares, and the screen would go all pixalated (if this is the correct word for it) the laptop would freeze and I would get a pop up bubble telling me sonething about the video card driver went tits up but it's managed to recover it. I did wonder if the graphics card was fff......... not as it should be

Now the screen is spilt again, yet when i press F11 I can only do computer check up (which is about as much use as a chocolate fireguard, and now only system recovery, which if i went through with might not fix the problem and i could quite possible loose everything. please bear in mind that the laptop is the only one with the photos of my wife and I's trip to Singapore (I know! should have backed em up if they were that important :-/)
Please help, i,m hoping to get it to start up and maybe fixing the nvidia driver, save my stuff and then maybe look at a new graphics card if thats the problem.
Theres some beer in this
