finally managed to solve my client's M17x R2 screen issue.
actually the faulty part is just the graphics card sitting, resit the graphics card and blue vertical lines gone. now works like charm. sweat.gif

Hey bro, it seems like I'm experiencing the same problem as your client but worse, my aw is m17x-r2 but with single 4870. It seems to keep crashing ever since I tried buffering 4K video from YouTube and now I can't even operate windows for more than 10 minutes and it will show bluescreen and crash. I'll attach some pictures here. Hope you guys can shed some light.

thank you for the swift reply guys. I've disassembled it and taken out and cleaned the graphic card and hopefully i can paste the thermal paste by tmrw. if it doesn't work, does it help by just changing the graphic card itself? cz I'm thinking of upgrading the 4870 to something else.

yeah, you can upgrade. just a problem that the cards arent available locally.
you can eventually upgrade to dual HD7970M.
