Thanks. All information helps!
Do you have or use any kind of screen capture or recording software?
If you go into Device Manager, how many display adapters do you have? (a screenshot would be excellent). It confuses me that your NVIDIA GeForce is showing up twice in the list of adapters in Paint.NET's diagnostics tab. This seems to be pretty common when people report this, although it's not conclusive (see the Radeon listed above all by itself).
(I'm not sure what rage is attached to Alienware ... ?
)I have OBS as screen capture software, which isn't used regularly, but is used.
In Device Manager, I have 3 display adapters, even though there should only be 2 since I have uninstalled LogMeIn, which should have removed the driver, but anyway:

(Many people feel Alienware is very overpriced for what they give you and other things like that, glad to know you have no large opinion on the matter!)

That does help actually. (Well, it doesn't get me any closer to a solution but it does provide important information ... basically, that this is not limited to DisplayLink)
Have you installed all the latest Windows Updates? Latest video card drivers? Have you ever had a second monitor attached, especially if it was hooked up via a USB / DisplayLink gizmo?
What laptop are you using? What configuration? Did you configure the video card in any way when you ordered it, or after you got the laptop? Basically any information you can think of related to the video card, monitor, GPU, etc. would be helpful!
Well, that's a lot of questions!
Windows updates are all up to date, so nothing special there.
Video card drivers are also all updated from both nvidia and intel.
I have had a second monitor attached but not since the new 4.0 update. It is a 1920x1080 monitor which I connect through HDMI.
My laptop is an Alienware M14x (Keep the rage and things to a minimum, I honestly don't care)
What do you mean by configuration?
Alsoo, I've not changed anything since I've bought it.
Hope some of that is helpful, anymore info needed just ask

Are y'all using laptops with docking ports? Or possibly USB display adapters? Or something called DisplayLink?
Or really, any extra information about how you hook up your monitor(s) and GPUs would be helpful.
Literally just using my laptop, nothing attached but a USB Wireless mouse.

Not sure if this is a feature or a bug with the new update (Sorry Rick!) but all the text appears very very bold compared to the last version that I had (3.5)

Is there a way to revert to the lighter font?
Thanks in advance,

Can you please go to the Settings dialog, then go to the Diagnostics section, then click Copy to Clipboard, and then paste that into a reply here?
Really sorry for not replying sooner! Better late than never I guess?
Off topic, but another problem I had was with literally updating it. I had to download it from the website and install it that way, as it came up with an error when trying to update from inside paint.net. Not too much of a problem and might just be something to do with my firewall but anyway,
Oh, and disabling the Hardware Accelerated Rendering (GPU) worked for me as well.
Here is my diagnostics info:

So after updating Paint.net to version 4.0, I ran into a whole lot of bugs making the program basically unusable.
I created a small gif showing what happened: http://gyazo.com/463c3eaa849ad2a375b527868bf52bb6
Now, I don't know if there is an easy fix for this or if I've somehow done something incredibly wrong, but I've reinstalled the older 3.5 version until it either gets fixed or a fix is found.
Thanks in advance!

Bugs galore in the 4.0 update for me!

OBS only runs when you open it, and stays in the tray as you record.
Disabling the LogMeIn driver doesn't help the problem with Paint.NET, the problem returns when enabling the GPU hardware.
Both Chrome, Firefox and Internet explorer (shudder) run fine just now, no problems whatsoever.
EDIT: Won't reply until the morning from now. Put in as many questions as you can and I'll answer them tomorrow!
