mruseless,

That behavior does not indicate that there is anything wrong with your computer or LCD.
It does happen that the LCD may flicker when it initializes with the windows drivers.

Drivers? The drivers are loaded on startup, and this problem occurs after sleep as well, and after working on the computer for a while. You are referring to the flicker that occurs as the drivers load on startup. This is not the same thing. "Initialization", as you put it, would not happen after you've been using the computer for 5 minutes.

Any other ideas? Anyone else with this issue?

At least this is only an annoyance and not a big problem.

I have the same problem. The screen flickers twice at random occassions. Very annoying!

I have the same problem.  The screen flickers twice, mostly when the screen turns back on ie. wakeup/startup, but sometimes at random.  I have two systems, a Precision M60 and a Inspiron 8500 both with WUXGA screens and they both have the same problem.

This happens on my c400 everytime I boot it.  Worse yet, on the second flicker, the screen resolution changes to 8bit 800x600.  Then I have to manually change the resolution.  This happens on every boot.  This is not normal behaviour.

johndill,

For your problem where the resolution is changing and has to be reset each time, I would update the BIOS, and see if that helps for some reason.
If not, you will need to contact us.

I am having the same problem with my D600 that I have only had for 3 weeks.  This is getting very anoying to say the least.    Another problem includes my touchpad freezing after boot up for about 30 seconds to a minute. I didnt expect this on a 2700.00 laptop.  This might get me to switch to IBM for the first tim in 10 years.

My touchpad freezes for a very short time on login, usually about 5 seconds. I just figured it was the driver loading.
