    Hi guys,

    Newbie here :)

    Just purchased my S270 during the weekend with the following specs:

    AMD Turion MT-30
    256MB RAM
    40GB Harddisk
    Win XP Home

    Now I notice that sometimes some icons on the desktop and some buttons (ex. Apply, Cancel) on windows that are open do not appear, they only appear when i drag my mouse pointer over them. The screen display settings are 1280 x 800. Has anbody encountered this as well ?

    Thanks :)

    I've seen a similar issue before with my ms-1013. It seems to be related to "Color quality" in the Display settings if I remember correctly(mine sent back for replacement now). When it's value is Medium(16bit), the issue's gone away. Though this is just not acceptable IMO. Definitely has something to do with its video driver :confused:
