Lcd crack causing motherboard issue?

In recent post I stated I cracked my lcd, then my connectors would not connect. Verified my lcd part number and had the ribbon cable replaced...
New Lcd did not work. ..
Now, I'm being told the motherboard may be the issue.
Question 1) Return screen pay shipping and 10% restock and get another screen in case it was defective?
Q 2) Buy something other than Pavillion which I'm told motherboard overheats?
What would you do? I'm a Cyber Security/Forensics student and need this issue fixed asap, just hitting dead-ends and the bottom of my bank acct.

Is the DC socket separate from the motherboard?
If it is, it may be defective.

  • LCD crack T530

    Hey guys!
    I bought refurbished T530 last December and I hardly use it, because my old x201 still works but with only a minor problem with the network card. However, two weeks ago, after I finished working that day, I closed the laptop and went to bed. When I reopened the laptop the next day - nobody had even touched it inbetween -  there were lines going through the screen and became worse several days later. ( now verifid as cracks in the screen)
    Several days ago I sent it  to the Lenovo service center in US and the support people there told me, that this was no case for warranty, because I had caused the damage. However, as I am sure, that the failure is not my fault, I am really not willing to pay 650 USD+tax  for a replacement screen (I have a 1 year warranty).
    What I wanted to ask now is: Has anybody else had similar problems? Does anybody has an explanation, how this damage can occur? And especially: How can I convince the people from the service center to repair it under warranty? I argued with them, but they were not open for my arguments and stated that the LCD crack is not covered.
    Just to clarify: I am 100% positive that nobody touched the laptop before the problam occurred.
    PS, I am so disappointed with lenovo thinkpad. I had T61, x201 and now T530. I just felt that the quality and services are going downhill.

    >  Does anybody has an explanation, how this damage can occur?
    It's possible for the glass substrate from which LCD panels are made can crack as the result of thermal stress, being held in place inside the bezel too tightly or similar. Especially if the glass is heat-treated as part of the manufacturing process than this sort of thing can happen spontaneously. (I don't know if that's the case with LCD substrate glass.)
    > How can I convince the people from the service center to repair it under warranty?
    You could call back and ask to escalate the matter. The challenge is to convince them that there was some sort of manufacturing defect rather than physical abuse. Your situation is further complicated because it's a refurbished system that may carry a more restrictive warranty.
    > I am really not willing to pay 650 USD+tax  for a replacement screen 
    Another option would be to find a replacement panel or even complete LCD/bezel assembly on eBay and replace it yourself using the detailed instructions in the Hardware Maintenance Manual. I see many panels for T530 listed for about $50. This may be a more expedient option.

  • Error message is not telling which field causing the issue!

    Hello
    I am developing the Adobe Interactive Form and launching this form from WebDynPro ABAP application, fine.
    This form has tonns of dropdown fields, mandatory fields, greyed out fields. Fine.
    I am filling the list the drop-down fields from webdynpro ABAP, but, i am filling list for only 80% of the drop-down fields, rest 20 % is not filling at all (bcz, business want to have those 20% dropd-owns on the form by thinking going further they require, this moment they dont need so they dont want to fill the lists)
    Now the form is launching on the browser, fine. But when user submits it i am getting the below erro:
    The Entered Value Is Not on the List of Valid Values.  (I am guessing this error is talking about the DROPDOWN fields only)
    I hv tonns of drop-down fields, so, its very difficult for me to go and trace each and every drop-down fielld!! But, i checked all the populated/entered values in the drop-down fields, they are all fine. Sone dropd-down fields are GREYED OUT, they are defaulted from webdynpro ABAP
    Pls. let me know How can know which field/drop-down is causing this issue? Wht are the possible causes for this error? Error is not telling which fields is making issue?
    How can i trace and how can i fix it, pls. let me know
    Thank you

    Thank you for your tips.
    But, as of my knowledge every thing (case sensitive, list box entries) are fine, not sure, why am getting this error! I will double chk again.
    But, thing is.... actually, i have 4 pages, depending on the logged in user, i will HIDE the pages (say, for me the 3 rd page will be hidden), i am hiding the pages by using JavaScript in the form.
    So, this error is not coming if i execute/launch all the 4 pages, but, its coming if i hide any page for any user!!
    By chance, do we debug to figure out which FIELD is CAUSING issue/this error?
    From where this message is coming, i mean, from the SAP's JAVA stack? Wht is the message ID and #?
    or is it Adobe's/Form's error?
    Thank you

  • My macbook pro keeps freezing and shutting off when I am browsing the web on Safari.  How can I figure out what is causing this issue?

    For the past few weeks my computer will slow down when I have been on Safari for awhile, then freeze, and then just go black.  I have to press the power button and then it goes to a black screen with the apple logo and a loading bar underneath when it reboots.  I'm not sure what is causing the issue, but on my previous mac it would have an error message if something like this happened that I could submit.  Any suggestions of where to start to solve this issue?
    Thanks!

    These instructions must be carried out as an administrator. If you have only one user account, you are the administrator.
    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Step 1
    For this step, the title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
              SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
    from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
              View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
    In the top right corner of the Console window, there's a search box labeled Filter. Initially the words "String Matching" are shown in that box. Enter "BOOT_TIME" (without the quotes.)
    Each message in the log begins with the date and time when it was entered. Select the BOOT_TIME log message that corresponds to the last boot time when you had the problem. Now clear the search box to reveal all messages. Select the ones logged before the boot, during the time something abnormal was happening. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
    For example, if the system was unresponsive or was failing to shut down for three minutes before you forced a restart, post the messages timestamped within three minutes before the boot time, not after. Please include the BOOT_TIME message at the end of the log extract—not at the beginning.
    If there are long runs of repeated messages, please post only one example of each. Don’t post many repetitions of the same message.
    When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
    Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
    Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.
    Step 2
    In the Console window, select
              DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION ▹ System Diagnostic Reports
    (not Diagnostic and Usage Messages) from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
              View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    There is a disclosure triangle to the left of the list item. If the triangle is pointing to the right, click it so that it points down. You'll see a list of reports. A crash report has a name that begins with the name of the crashed process and ends in ".crash". A panic report has a name that begins with "Kernel" and ends in ".panic". A shutdown stall report has a name that ends in ".shutdownstall". Select the most recent of each, if any. The contents of the report will appear on the right. Use copy and paste to post the entire contents—the text, not a screenshot. It's possible that none of these reports exists.
    I know the report is long, maybe several hundred lines. Please post all of it anyway.
    If you don't see any reports listed, but you know there was a crash or panic, you may have chosen Diagnostic and Usage Messages from the log list. Choose DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION instead.
    In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
    Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report—they're very long and rarely helpful.

  • Could the replacement of a fan on a graphics card cause OS issues?

    [Dangit - I unintentionally posted this in the iMac forum first - meant to post it here]
    OK I suppose it's a bonafide long shot that my replacing of an intermittently malfunctioning fan on a graphics card could cause OS issues, but I've had something immediately crop up after the replacement (crippling issues with Logic's 32-bit audio unit bridge), and they effect older projects that were previously stable, so I figured I'd ask for the heckuvit.
    Repairing permissions hasn't helped - I'm just starting to ponder whether to reset PRAM, reset SMC, boot from an HD clone, try reinstalling the old fan, etc., in order to figure out the problem....
    BTW - the graphics card is an Nvidia GT120.

    Go out and buy an Apple ATI 5770.
    What requirements does Logic have for video, and are you still on 10.6.8?
    The GT120 is 512MB but low-end card.
    If you do need more performance:

  • [svn] 1543: Bug: BLZ-152-lcds custom Date serialization issue - need to add java.io. Externalizable as the first type tested in AMF writeObject() functions

    Revision: 1543

    Bug: BLZ-152-lcds custom Date serialization issue - need to add java.io.Externalizable as the first type tested in AMF writeObject() functions
    QA: Yes - please check that the fix is working with AMF3 and AMFX and you can turn on/off the fix with the config option.
    Doc: No
    Checkintests: Pass
    Details: The problem in this case was that MyDate.as was serialized to MyDate.java on the server but on the way back, MyDate.java was serialized back to Date.as. As the bug suggests, added an Externalizable check in AMF writeObject functions. However, I didn't do this for AMF0Output as AMF0 does not support Externalizable. To be on the safe side, I also added legacy-externalizable option which is false by default but when it's true, it restores the current behavior.

  • CS 5.5 coexist with CS 6.0 causes FrameMaker issue - can't import SVG file!

    Due to some project demands, we installed Adobe CS back to 5.5 on a computer which has CS6.0 already installed. After the installation, everything worked in normal except one problem - we could not import SVG into FM file for all versions of FrameMaker on this computer.
    Does the coexistence of CS 5.5 and 6.0 cause this issue? Or can CS 5.5 coexist with CS6.0 on a same machine? or any other reasons? Please comments!

  • Spontaneous LCD Crack(s)(ing)

    So was was doing a little search and found a post a while back about MB LCDs cracking for no reason. It just happened to me!!! And I'm mad because A) I set it on the table for about 3-4 hours while i did homework and nothing happened to it in that time.. Well it was touched It might have been opened closed to check something-but nothing unusual. B) Apple won't (?) cover it.
    The weirdest thing happened too: First there was a black and blue crack the size of the menu bar right under the sight - this appears to be the origin. The crack happened late Wed and Thurs. morning there was no change. However about 11 hours later (returning from school) the crack had decreased to about 1/2 the menu bar. It was pretty odd. I've never seen an LCD crack get smaller over time! Then later today (thurs) I opened it up and the crack got worse - down to the middle of the screen about. With the hour or so that that happened the crack has shrunk so that the worst of it is around the Mac button on Apple homepage.
    <Edited by Moderator>

    So Since then I've had 2 visits to the Apple store an 1 call. So my original quote of $280 was the best I'm gonna do.
    I called Apple and the guy said I could take it in. The next time I took it into the store (this morning) I was quoted $600.02!!!!!! for and LCD panel!!! He wouldn't budge and I left. I did some arguing - but he said the same thing and still didn't so anything!
    I left and called another Apple sotre. The phone rep was helpfuk and got me an appoint for today. I went in and I was first quoted $755!!!! What it goes up each time????? So I was arguing a bit ad mentioned the one girl who held me on Saturday at that store. He was able to give me the $280 price.
    It's actually interesting : the $755 price is for replacing / repairing everything on the computer, not just the LCD. So it would fix any other problems. With any bit of luck my colored disc drive (the marker wiped clean of the DVD) will come back clean.
    At the point the guys tone changed. He seemed more helpful and relaxed. I got him to put a note about checking the internal drive and he made sure that my added RAM was in the system. That was good.
    At this point, I'm pretty mad at Apple. I'm glad it's getting fixed, but I'm going to have a hard time this next 7-10 days during which I have hours of work to do. Luckily, I have my main HD in an enclosure and a Mac I can use part of the time. I'l be writing a letter to Apple and probably calling them, too. I also may be visiting Cupertino tomorrow or Wednesday - though not for customer service. I'm hoping I get 3 or the survey emails from Apple about the Genius Bar. And my MacBook better comeback clean and with no new scratches.
    Also Safari on Win isn't the same. I ought to complain about being forced to use Windows!

  • Two Fx 4 windows open at the same time causes usability issues

    When I load two instances of Firefox, I get multiple issues with the second instance usability, display, and hot keys.
    The issues are as follows:
    # Menubar/Toolbar appear differently
    # Back/Forward buttons do not work
    # F-Keys no longer Function
    # Favicons show old, cached icons
    Please see screen grab of my two monitors with two instances of Fx 4 open, but the I played with my toolbar settings to get it to look somewhat ok.
    http://www.travellingwebguy.com/images/Fx-4.png
    This is what happens when I open a second window, and do not mess with the toolbars:
    http://www.travellingwebguy.com/images/Fx-4-2nd-window.png
    This issue was not happening with Fx 3.x.x.
    I am using a custom Persona, but I have changed the Persona a few times and I still get the same result.
    I've removed all incompatible extensions and upgraded all the ones that needed upgrading.
    Not sure what the issue is here, but would love to troubleshoot it down if possible. Please let me know if any other info is required!
    Cheers

    Exact same issue here. Also, the add-on manger will not launch.
    I thought it might be an add-on causing these issues, but only one out of my ten or so addons work in FF4, and I disabled it with no success.
    This is a huge issue for me. I attempted to uninstall FF4 and go back to FF3 but I can't find an install file for FF3.

  • XFi-2- Latest firmware (1.20.08) has caused some issues on 32GB model...

    HXFi-2- Latest firmware (.20.08) has caused some issues on 32GB model... When I started my PC last night, it notified me that new firmware was avaliable so it downloaded it and installed it on my Xfi-2 32GB
    According to the release notes, it was to add support for the 64 GB model as well as some general improvements.
    I can't determine what the latest improvements were (anyone have any clues ) and the UI seems the same.....the only things that have changed are that my applications no longer work (when I go into the applications shortcut, it says there is no valid content: I haven't touched these folders etc and they are still populated with the three standard apps as far as I can tell)
    The other thing (which may not be related to the firmware upgrade) is that my photos shortcut now pulls up some of my music folders that contain album art. Is this a feature or a bug (I don't want it to happen, I just want it to show photos within the 'photos' folder on the device).... I think it may have been caused by me simply dragging and dropping music folders onto the device using windows explorer rather than going through Centrale (slow!)
    Cheers

    Hi Timmo.
    What release notes are you reading? I have seen no reference to improvements other than adding support for the new 64 GB model on this firmware version. From the description of the problems you have, it seems that your player has some sort of file system corruption on the internal flash. I would suggest reinstalling the firmware on your device after formatting it (formatting the device only should be enough, I think).
    The size of the new firmware release, double than the size on the previous one, means that it probably has new features and applications that will be enabled on the future; however I doubt it means it has new features right now and hope it does not means we have two firmwares (on for the 64 GB model and other for the previous ones) as the SRM/AlphaBIOS pair on the Digital Alpha systems (an ugly hack on these superb computers, in my humble opinion) -- by the way, the new firmware does not require more space on the internal flash (I have 5077 MB available on mine with all firmware releases).
    The behavior you describe about album art being shown on the photos shortcut happens with older firmware releases too; I prefer album art embedded on the audio files instead of being available as another file. I agree with you, only pictures under the photos directory should be shown as images.
    Cheers.

  • Ea6300 causing network issues when connecting to web browser on my Mac

    I have had my ea6300 for two months and its causing major issues when connecting to my web broweser before I throw it out the window can someone give me some help.

    Hi bigtimer30, what do you mean by “it’s causing major issues when connecting to my web browser”? Do you mean that the MAC computer is no longer able to access the internet? If yes, is it with both wired and wireless connections? Is this happening to all of your devices? Or just that specific MAC computer? If all the other devices are still able to connect except the MAC, I suggest that you do a power cycle on the computer (if you haven’t done it yet). And you’re having difficulties with the wireless part, try to hard wire the computer straight to your router, and check if you experience the same thing. If the wired connection is okay, you may try playing with the router’s wireless channel. Better if you could give more details for us to give you more suggestions. 

  • Hard Drive or Motherboard issue?

    Hi,
    You can see my set up in my signature below - Forgot to mention it's Windows XP SP2. I am having issues with my Hard drives, Everything was working perfectly for about a week, then misteriously my 2nd hard drive (the 300Gb Maxtor drive) disappeared from windows explorer so I rebooted, this resulted in the computer sitting at the boot screen (the MSI full screen graphic) and not doing anything. I tried restarting a couple of times but still nothing so I opened the case, unplugged the sata drives and plugged them back in, this resulted in the computer booting fine. About 30 mins later the Maxtor drive vanished again, so I tried the same procedure but couldn't get the machine to boot. This is where it gets interesting:
    there are a few options for how the drives are plugged in:
    1) 80Gb Seagate (os on this drive) plugged into top sata port, 300gb Maxtor plugged into bottom port.
    2) Seagate plugged into bottom port, Maxtor plugged into top
    3)Seagate on its own plugged into either port
    4)Maxtor on its own plugged into either port
    Results:
    1) Machine willl not boot, locks up at msi logo
    2) Machine boots into Bios but the seagate drive cannot be seen, the maxtor drive is present however. Takes forever for the Bios screen to show up, the computer seems to operate very slowly.
    3) Machine boots fine off the seagate drive in either port on its own, no delays, bios works fine, everything is good.
    4) Maxtor drive is only visible when plugged into top sata port.
    Also, with no hd's present at all the computer boots fine into Knoppix off a cd. I've still to try booting into knoppix with the hard drives present.
    What is also interesting is that if the machine attempts to boot off the Maxtor drive (no OS present) I get the typical Windows NTLDR missing type ctrl+alt+del message which I find odd as there shouldnt be any OS present at all - the drive was formatted when the 80gb drive arrived and is just used as a file storage area.
    I am starting to believe that this is a hard drive issue and not a motherboard issue but some input from you all would be much appreciated. I am taking the Maxtor drive to a mates house tonight to back the data up off it, if it works!
    Thanks for your help,
    Ian
