    Yes, I'm aware there is nothing wrong with the hardware. I think it is a driver issue.

    Please try and update. Open a terminal and:

    Code:
    sudo apt-get autoremove
    sudo apt-get update
    sudo apt-get upgrade
    sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
    These commands will not upgrade your OS to a newer release. Post any and all errors between code tags (see the last link in my signature). Reboot and at the grub menu of kernels/OSs, go to the second one, Advanced Options, and on that screen choose the first kernel on the list.
    I highly appreciate your help but I am aware of all that and I have already done it but sadly, nothing has changed. I even did it yet again just to triple check that I didn't miss anything same old, nothing changed.

    It sounds like it might be working on one kernel and not the other. Perhaps the kernel being booted into is changing. A shot in the dark, but possible.
    Maybe or a driver issue.

    I will boot to an old kernel and see. Who knows? maybe that will help ...

    Thank you very much

    I have 3 Kernels. I rebooted the machine, selected each one of those 3 and booted the laptop. Well, sadly nothing
