Compaq Presario cq61 screen problems

[902]

hi i have a compaq presario cq61 and the screen is driving me mad!
i turn on the computer and i'll have to fidget with the screen to get it to display something other than that it starts to show random colours, eg: reg white green blue this i assume means the lcd is fine but the connection between it and the laptop is bad, what do i do? it's still a good laptop it has atleast another year left in it

i would of thought that but it works fine as long as it stays in one position, after moving it back and forth and the closest laptop repair shop enjoy ripping you off more than anything! is there any way to tell what's wrong without taking it to a shop?

Hi

I have seen hundreds like yours...fine in ONE position, etc...

Only way to tell is change the cable (cheaper) then the screen when I am proved correct lol...or diagnosis...

All the best Brett

Hi

I own a laptop repair company...

Everyone with your problem always thinks its the cable (from inverter to screen)

It very rarely is... its normally new screen time...

Laptop repair shops for diagnosis...
