Sorry people, another issue I have to share /need feedback...

Is this normal? So much bleeding! I can even draw /paint with my finger.

Is this some special feature of this Ionicos or did I get a faulty screen?

You should never touch a laptop screen, it's liquid crystal, so touching it displaces the crystals. Not good.

Backlight bleed is a downside of IPS panels.

guys, new update here...

Something realy wrong with sound...

I opened my Notebook to check if all connectors are where they should be and I saw two missing... can someone confirm if it should be like this?


Also I disconnected the soundboxes and connected the ones from my old notebook.

same crap, no good sound... And the other ones are crazy loud and with verry good bass on my old notebook. So I tryed this Ionico boxes on my old Notebook(vice versa) Wow.. impressive sound


devinitively something wrong with sound card or drivers!

Help me please πŸ˜­πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

Last years model had really bad backlight bleed so I'm not really surprised.

Have you installed THX? Sound isn’t configured until that’s installed.

yes thx is installed but I cant find a programm or intterface. Does it even have one or is it just a driver? Also why do we need this driver if we have realtek audio?

I can confirm that neithr my Ionico has a THX app launchable, despite I installed the THXAPO setup provided by PCS. And if I rerun it, it tells to uninstall that thing, so it's installed.
The only way so far I could 'activate or deactivate' the THX enhancements is going here:

And tick 'Enabled Audio Enhancements' you see there below.

This way you'll hear a different audio, more reverb etc. from the Audio output. Also, despite I didn't change anything, after one day of use my Speakers defalts to this name (might be a thing got with additional WU download):

So it definitely has THX working in the background.
But for the sake of it, I can't yet find any app to fine tune that effect.

PS: I keep it disabled as it goes also to the headphones I mostly use, and too much reverb is not what I like. But yeah, from normal speaker, sound is better with the tick turned on.

It should load a shortcut onto the desktop I thought which is the exe file.

We had another user who had difficulties with it, let me see if I can find that thread.

Here is the link to clean install the THX app, give it a try:

Yeah I read that thread, but since I don't mind of THX at all (and be reassured, there is anything launchable from the desktop, start menu, even in any program files folder) I don't mind trying to uninstall it again and try. But the other guy can and see how it goes.
PS: I installed THX after a brand new windows installation, so doubt any conflict etc. It's simply a bit bugged the installation process I guess. But at least the effect is there, installed.

ok my audio shows only speaker... I will reinstall drivers today. Also the display audio driver and nvidia or can I let them just like they are?

I've only that speaker, no NVIDIA. Maybe it appears IF you connect via HDMI to external monitor.
Anyway as soon as I instlled driver I also had just Speaker without THX suffix. Then 1 or 2 days later, noted it had appeared.
So I can't really understand what happened to let it kick in. Possibly an updated driver by Windows Update? Don't know.
