OK, thanks, I will give it a try. This can be my small contribution...

I saved those links and if something else happens I will send screen shot
there.

Is there anything I can do to restore my native resolution 1280x800 without
reinstall? And my screen if somehow blurry. Perhaps you have seen this in my
screen shots. NOw I will send you the look of my update manager when I have
new updates.
