Hello, i honestly don’t know what else to do, and who to contact about this issue, i’ve already tried all options to solve it, with no luck. About 2.5 months ago i foolishly downloaded a file form an untrustworthy source, it crippled my pc, my explorer on windows 11 would not open up, loading indefinitely. At the time i’ve tired all i could to fix this problem and was unable to do so, then decided to reinstall windows 11. I’ve done that not in a clean fashion, keeping a lot of personal files on the computer and using built in windows solution, just resetting the pc basically. That helped with explorer, but a new problem has appeared, the one i’m battling right now for over two months. The rendering of all visuals after resetting windows 11 became blurry: the text is jagged, and the pictures are as if of much lower resolution. This issue affects everything, the system, the browsers, the videos on the computer, the games, etc. I already reinstalled windows 11 in a clean fashion, tried uninstalling drivers using DDU program and reinstalling them, tried to see if the problem was due to hdmi/dp cables, tried checking my monitor, checked my computer for lingering viruses using several different anti-virsues, even brought the pc to a local computer specialist, he concluded that the issue exists but has no idea what could be causing it, said that the hardware is in excellent condition, and that the software shouldn’t be the source. At the present moment this isn’t just about aesthetics, my eyes legitimately hurt a lot looking at how things are rendered with this issue. I have no idea what to do, and who to ask about help, and in what kind of direction should i even be going to determine the source of the issue. If someone could help me to troubleshoot this and offer some advice, i would be very grateful. Just in case my SN: A57003BH30561, and the model is: SER5 PRO-E-161TBEJ0W64PRO-DP/XB.

Persistent rendering issue on a SER5 pro mini-pc.

Beelink CS-June Thank you for the reply, i will try clearing CMOS at my earliest convenience and will get back to you to report the progress. The first method with the driver i already tried with no avail.

Beelink CS-Rose

Grey Okay, we await your update.When clearing the CMOS, please unplug the power supply and other external devices. Wait ten minutes before turning on the computer.

Could you please send us a picture or video of the blurry PC screen? This would help us better assist you.

You can try the following measures

1.Check the display resolution: Ensure that your PC is set to the recommended resolution for your display. To do this, right-click on your desktop, select “Display settings,” and adjust the resolution to the recommended setting.

2.Adjust display settings: You can try adjusting the settings on your display to improve clarity. Use the buttons on the display itself to access its menu and adjust parameters such as brightness, contrast, sharpness, and any other image-enhancing options.

3.Adjust ClearType settings (Windows): If you’re using Windows, you can try adjusting ClearType settings. Type “ClearType” in the Windows search bar, open “Adjust ClearType text,” and follow the on-screen instructions to optimize text clarity.

Hello again, i have tried clearing CMOS earlier today, still no luck, the issue persists. On top of that i couldn’t initially enter BIOS menu, only were able to do so through Windows startup options. Now after restarting the pc the starting screen looks different, i no longer see Beelink logo only AMI BIOS is written there. Other methods you have included i already tried and they don’t work because there is no issue with my display settings or ClearType. I have included several screenshot from system menus, videos, youtube player menu, etc. that should illustrate my point, that everywhere on my pc whether it’s text or pictures, whether it’s downloaded videos or browsers, or games, everything looks extremely off as if i’m using an old tv. I don’t know if you will be able to pick up on the fact that pictures and text are blurry, jagged and low quality through these screenshots, but i hope you will believe me that there is a problem. I’m gonna try later to record a video to showcase the problem. In the meantime what should be my other actions regarding this problem and BIOS?

I were able to record a video, here it is: https://drive.google.com/drive/my-drive?dmr=1&ec=wgc-drive-hero-goto

@“Grey”#p28633Can you send a local video? There’s no video after opening your link.

Please try reinstalling your system according to our tutorial.

Pls backup your data firstly, re-installing the system will make your data in your pc lost.Here is the tutorial: https://url.bee-link.cn/74zu

Beelink CS-Rose I can’t send local video, your site says that uploads over 120k aren’t allowed, so i had to use google drive. What to do about my BIOS though?

Grey

Beelink CS-Rose Try these links for the videos.

I can now open the video you provided, and the text on the PC is blurry.

Please press the delete key as soon as you turn on the PC so that you can access the BIOS. Please send us a picture of the Main page. We will check if you need to update the BIOS.

Grey

Beelink CS-Rose Yeah i actually already have done that, even before clearing CMOS, my BIOS version is SER5H507. Sorry that i can’t provide a picture, the site says that uploads over 120kb are not accepted. Please give me instructions on how to exactly update BIOS, i have never done that before.

Have you tried reinstalling your system using the tutorial we provided?

The BIOS file and tutorial have been sent via private message.

Grey

Beelink CS-Rose Yes, as i said in the original post, i already did clean reinstall of the system and the issue still here. I could try reinstalling windows again though. The BIOS file i’ve got originally was SER5H514, but now you sent me SER5H12, what is the difference?

Beelink CS-Rose

Grey

Version 514 was used to fix the EK issue, and version 512 was used to fix the AMD Sinkclose vulnerability. You can upgrade to version 512.

Grey

Beelink CS-Rose Okay, thank you for explaining, i will try to update BIOS. I have an unfortunate update, i have reinstalled windows again and it did not solved the problem.

Beelink CS-Rose

Grey

Thank you for your update. If updating BIOS versions 512 and 514 still doesn’t work, please contact our support email address for after-sales assistance: support-pc@bee-link.com
