I swear, I am cursed or something. I bought a new computer in November last year. My dad bought it and had it sent to my sister since I was on exchange, so I got it in January when I got home. It's a Lenovo Yoga 720 with a touchscreen. Quickly after I started using it, I noticed a dead pixel on the screen. I contacted the seller and sent it in for repairs. I got it back and quickly after noticed ANOTHER dead pixel on the screen. I contacted the seller but could not send it back then since I was working on my thesis at the time. See, my old computer is now 5½ years old, and while it still works for the most part, it has gotten a habit of zapping off without any kind of warning. It literally just says 'zap' and then it is dead, which is why I bought a new computer - I didn't want to risk losing progress on my thesis by my computer zapping out. Anyway, I finally sent in the new computer and got it back last week. Everything looked fine until last night when I tried to use the touchscreen.
Somehow, the touchscreen is mirrored horizontally in the middle, meaning when I touch the top of the screen, my computer thinks I am touching the bottom of my screen.
ARE YOU EFFING KIDDING ME!?!?!?!
I have updated the drivers, I have updated the computer, calibrated the pen and touch input, factory reset the computer and the touch input is still upside down.
WHAT DID I DO TO DESERVE THIS CURSE?????
I now have to send it in for the THIRD time in less than 6 months. Seriously? The dude said he would make a note saying he would recommend they give me a new computer instead, cause like... this is not supposed to be happening, three screen fails when they have already changed out the entire screen twice? That is not okay.
I am just so tired of everything technological. I usually have semi-bad luck with technology but this computer takes the cake of that would only happen to me.
