Hi,
This afternoon, I found out that my laptop suddenly have these colorful vertical lines on the half right side on the screen! I never dropped it or anything, it was just there on my desk all the time. When I gave a slight bend to the screen, the lines disappeared, but when I let go, they appear again!
I know that this has nothing to do with the GPU or motherboard, as I tried using an external monitor and it was just fine. What do you guys think? Is it the LCD or a loose connector causing it? I also found out that if I pressed the area near the right side of the hinge, the lines are gone, but when I let go, they come back.
I asked the PC repair guy, he took quick glimpse and said the LCD is cracked, and I have to pay $100 to have it replaced.
Oh and btw, my laptop is an Acer Aspire E5. It's only slightly over a year old. Any help is appreciated.![Smile :) :)](/styles/bom/smilies/smile.gif)
