I got the laptop today. Started it up, set up an account on win8 and then started looking at windows updates. I first get this nvidia windows kernel mode driver stopped responding error, so I decided to update the drivers for the video. I restarted and it seemed to have helped it, but not after a few tries of forcing power off and powering back on a few times. The HDD light, power light, and charging light show activity and you can hear fans kicking on, but no video. I let it sit around a few minutes and nothing. So I force power off, and power back on until video shows. Windows updates seem to be having problems, when I reboot it doesn't always come back with video.
I mean, these are obvious problems and I'm taking it back tomorrow. This is the my second one.(The first had one dead pixel and a dead cell in the battery, but worked perfect other than the stated issues) Anyone have any idea where the issue may lie? I'm pointing to the motherboard, but perhaps this is more of a windows issue in general(doubtful).
Any tips, suggestions, advice, etc?
Thanks.
