Hello all,
I have a Dell Precision M6300 laptop with Nvidia FX1600 graphics running Windows Vista Business 64. The LCD screen and DVI output perform wonderfully. However, whenever I hook up a projector to the VGA port the video shakes and flickers. I have not seen this on 2 other identical M6300s. This wouldn't really be an issue but this laptop is used in China often and they always have VGA connectors available for their projectors. We use DVI for our projector in the office.
Dell has replaced the motherboard and graphics card but the problem remains. I've tried several different driver versions and it is running the latest BIOS. I've tried all kinds of different resolutions, refresh rates, display settings, etc, to no avail.
Today I am reinstalling Windows because I don't know what else to do, but I have a feeling that this won't fix the problem.
Has anyone seen anything like this before? Also, what are my next steps with Dell if reinstalling Vista doesn't do the trick? This system was purchased in March 2008.
