I've got a T41 whose video is screwed up, showing same symptoms on the LCD and external display.
When cold or warm boot, it would need several restarts to get the screen readable, instead of various noise/dot patterns. Once the video got initialized correctly at boot, it was useable. Sometimes it would be nearly perfect, but usually it would have artefacts, like a box around the cursor, and red vertical streaks on video. But finally, no amount of booting would get to a useable state. So I got a W500. :) Is this the video controller or bad shared memory, or other? If the video controller, there's no way to fix except replacing the motherboard? Anybody got a used, working T23 mobo? Bruce?
