Hey all,
I have a Dell Studio 1535 with an HD3450 in it and I've been having some problems with it. Once in a while(every few days), the screen will glitch, freeze, go to black, then recover with the message: "ATI display driver has crashed and recovered successfully". It wouldn't be a problem except that this happens regularly. I've tried different drivers and it didn't fix the problem. There's also a problem when I hook it up to a monitor while the laptop is plugged in. This will cause the external monitor to flicker, which is very annoying and makes it unusable. Any help would be appreciated. The laptop is under warranty so if it's a hardware problem I could probably send it in, but I'm hoping it's just a software problem that can be fixed. Thanks.
