Hi,

I was working on my laptop and there was a candle which ended up heating a certain section of the screen leaving a grey smudge. I cooled down the machine and even restarted it but the problem still exists. Help please...!!!

 
Hi,

Do you have a picture of what happened to the screen of your laptop? If it looks physically damaged, the only solution would be to replace the screen itself. 🙁
