I'm having a major problem.

Every winodw I open on my laptop is slanting towards one side.

Its happening on every program I open.



How can I fix it?

I'll explain a bit better.

From left to right even this box I am typing in now is not straight anymore.

It seems that HP are aware of it because the live chat person knew about it straight away.

I have asked them to update the dgraphic drivers so as to include pin cushion settings etc.

I doubt they will and I'm out of warranty so don't know what to do.

No everything is rolling off towards the right.

It's getting very annoying.

Wow, that's a new one! I assume you are missing say the bottom right of your screen then? The system tray?

I hate to tell you this, but this is a hardware issue with your HP.

I read about this some while back, I believe on early models of the 1910 Laptop.

I dont think there is much you can do, other than moan to HP and see if they'll fix it for you for free.

Your confirmation that the problem exists in BIOS, outrules any driver or OS issues.
