I don't have that issue with my laptop, so a repair might work although, as I said, the problem might be at a more basic level, involving Windows itself and/or your hardware. It certainly won't do any harm to try the repair...

PS: Please don't post questions about the same issue in multiple forums. I have deleted your other thread.
