Perhaps it is a intermittent screen issue.
Pics From Original Thread
Hi Tim,
Thanks for your reply...
The photos were taken prior to the motherboard replacement , then after the motherboard was replaced,
I was experiencing infrequent system freezing and restarts, which I can describe, such as 'static lines running across the top of the screen'
the system just locked no response, I could only hold down the power off button to restart..
One time during an installation of Windows 10, the system froze 6 separate times..
Since I removed the 4GB 2400mhz DDR4 Apacer RAM , I have had no problems ..
As the laptop already has 4GB 2133mhz of DDR4 soldered onto the motherboard,
i just wondered if it was a faulty stick of Apacer DDR4 2400mhz RAM, or... this laptop can only support additional RAM of 2133mhz only??

Thanks once again..
I run the RAMMon test, but unfortunately it doesnt work with Lenovo motherboards..
However I ran the program in debugmode, and sent the two system info files to Passmark
as they suggested ,they will probably contact me in a few days, with an amended program..
I will post the info on here, when I receive a reply..
16GB max / 2133MHz DDR4, dual-channel capable, optional 4GB memory soldered to systemboard, one DDR4 SO-DIMM socket You choice of 8GB module DDR4 2133MHz SODIMM 260-pin SO-DIMM would work. Listed on parts lookup based on machine type 80XL here would also show you OEM recommended RAM and subsitutes for the model.
