Studio 17 graphics driver issue Please Help!!!
I have a Studio 17 lappy
ATI Mobility HD Radeon 3650
Intel core 2 duo 2.53ghz processor
4gb ram from factory
everything stock standard from factory
running 64 bit windows 7
nearly every time i open the laptop after it was asleep the display driver crashes, and sometimes recovers but often won't. it often goes all pixelated, or blacks out or flashes etc.
i have uninstalled and updated the video driver, i've updates to BIOS to the latest, i've even formatted and reinstalled windows but the problem persists. what can i do??
thanks for any help in advance

Display artifacts like this indicate a closed laptop overheating and or failed GPU fan or severe dust bunny infection.

i've opened it up and cleaned all dust out.
doesn't ever feel hot at all while asleep though.
