Hello,
Since a few weeks I'm encountering a weird video problem with my TC1100:
When I boot it, sometimes there is a lot of garbage on the screen (right from the BIOS message). This will cause Windows XP to boot in very low res and color, and of it will complain about not being able to set the normal resolution.
After a few ON/OFF (it's random), the video gets back to normal, and NEVER fails during power on periods.
Here's a picture of the problem:
Did anyone got the same problem with their TC1100? How could I fix it ? It's not under warranty anymore so I cannot send it back...
Thanks

The problem seems indeed to be widespread, and as I'm not under warranty anymore I won't be able to fix it since it involves buying a new motherboard :( (I might aswell buy a new unit then)
