Alienware 18 display issue
Have an interesting issue with my Alienware 18 display where it flickers in places , looks washed out, and distorted.
The troubleshooting steps that I have taken thus far:
1. Plugged into an external monitor and display is fine.
2. Enabled integrated video and the display is fine.
3. Made sure that I was up to date with all drivers and bios updates.
4. Tried disabling and reenabling SLI.
It is very strange because if it was a video card issue, I would have thought that you would get the same display issue on an external monitor. If it was an LCD or perhaps LCD cable issue, then it should still be a problem when I switch to integrated video.
If someone could provide any suggestions, it would be greatly appreciated.

Hi liquidhappy.
it could be still partially broken Display Cable. another Option would be the Motherboard.
try run EPSA outside Windows. F12 during Boot Up i believe. tell us if it could find something.
do you still have Warranty?
