Vladimir,

thanks for link but this is a software problem and not a hardware 
problem. I remember testing this laptop with version 10 in the past and 
I never got any of these messages.

Can someone tell what info I need to provide more on this issue so one 
of you guys (Adrian ?) can better handle my problem ?
