Hello everyone,
I bought a new laptop today for school. It is an Acer Aspire 5.
It has no disc reader so I used an USB cd/dvd reader to install a program to use my printer.
After everything was installed I wanted to eject the USB but couldnt find it with the "eject safely button". So I just unplugged it.
After a few seconds my background turned green. The weird thing was that only my wallpaper disappeared and turned greenish. My icons, toolbar, websites,... stayed the same. Everything worked.
I restarted it and after a few updates it went back to normal and then went back to green.
I thought maybe if I change my wallpaper, the green background would go away. I did that and for the moment my screen went never green again.
I did a scan to see if I didn't damage my laptop. Apparently everything is fine. But I'm still worried. It was very expensive for me to buy and I would hate myself if anything happened to it. Especially the first day I got it.
Do you guys know if my laptop is still ok? Do you know what kind of problem it was? Will I have problems with it in the future?
Thanks to everyone willing to help!
