Hello all readers,
I am new here to MacRumours forum. I have been a faithfull mac-user for years. I am posting this thread here, in hope to find a solution to a persisting problem i can't seem to get rid of.
I have been with a screen "problem" on my new Macbook pro 2019 (catlina) and on my old macbook 2007 (snow leopard) for some time now.
Both have a similar problem of pulsations and shiverings over the whole screen, and there seems to be a "filter/layer", that makes text and images blurry and kind of move/dance. Because of this, working on my laptops is almost a torture.
I Think these alterations of my displays is due to opening "bad" torrent files downloaded years ago ,and wich caused this problem on my old macbook and now got back on the new one by connecting an old external drive to the macbookpro, as it started directly after opening.
I am not shure it is a hardware problem as it runs on both my laptops and Hardware checks haven't shown anything.
I have searched on apple support community and the internet, and have tried a lot of usual solutions (like different erases of SSD and clean installs, resseting of NVRAM and SMC, etc.). and had several repairs by apple repair center (Hardware check ,replacing screen keyboard and logicboard) , and scans by different anti-virus softwares, all with no result or not completely solving the problem.
I maybe should say That the problem is present whilest in recovery mode, but the shivering stops, but the filter is there, while running in Safemode.
The problem stays . after several clean installs of the osx, with booting from usb and internet and erasing the complete SSD.
I am searching for a deeper way to tackle this screen problem. And i am turning to Macrumours to hopefully find some assistance in doing so. a bow and smiley
I have made a video of the screen pulsations/shiverings in attachement. (its on a slower speed to make it extra visible)
and tried to film the blurry moving of the text (when zooming in most visible)
If anybody should now where i could start to look to where this alteration comes from?( like boot system, systemlog, ...) or what to do?
I would be very gratefull for it !
Every help is much appreciated,
many thanks !
with kind regards ,
