    I just cracked open my E6500 and so far, I am a bit disappointed. The graphics seem to be very poor.

    For example, the bluetooth icon in the taskbar is extremely grainy. Did anyone else experience this? I updated the drivers and still seems bad. Any suggestions

    Thanks in advance.

    Could you take a picture of what you mean by grainy? Also, what screen do you have (resolution)?

    Are you running the display at the right resolution? LCDs look grainy if the logical resolution is less than the physical resolution. 1280 x 800 on a 1440 x 900 display will look grainy.

    Normally the display resolution slider (Display properties > Settings) should at the right end of the available range.
