Nice 'N Clean Electronic Wipes on my Laptop screen?

Hello All,
This is my first post on the hp forums, so forgive me if I posted this in the wrong location or violated any other protocol.
Yesterday, I bought some Nice 'N Clean Electronic Wipes to clean my brand new g6-2235us laptop. I went ahead and used the wipes on my laptop screen, but it wasn't until later that actually read the instructions on the back of the product box (we're all guilty of doing that at some time). It says that the Nice 'N Clean wipes are okay for use on laptops, but it also says that they're NOT for use on Plasma TV's. I know, I know, my laptop isn't a tv, but I was wondering if my g6 has a plasma display, and if I can use these wipes to clean not only the exterior and keys of my laptop, but the screen. Oh, and I'm pretty ignorant when it comes to electronics; this is my first laptop, so please forgive me.
Thanks for taking the time to anser this question!

No it is not a plasma screen and they are OK to use...more expense than needed. I clean laptop screens with a microfiber cloth or a t-shirt that has been washed and dried a million times so there is zero lint. Use a very dilute solution of dishwashing liquid like Dawn and don't get the cloth too wet. You can clean it using this with the power off. If that does not remove greasy stuff, you can use isopropyl alcohol, followed by the detergent solution. Dry with the part of the cloth you did not get wet. Whatever you do, do not use any ammonia based solution like Windex or you will permanently cloud up the screen. For between the keys use a Q-tip dipped in alcohol and let it dry real good before you turn the machine on.

  • Best way to clean laptop screen??

    What is the best way to clean a laptop screen?

    If you are only talking about fingerprints and dust, a microfiber cloth works great.  Gets everything off without scratching.
    If there are things on the screen that don't come off by wiping, do not use chemical or spray products as they can get into places they don't belong.  A slightly damp cloth, very very slightly damp not wet, and wipe only on the screen surface, not along the edges where moisture can get inside.
    But if you use any moisture you have to be really careful as electronics and liquids do not play well together.

    I had to wipe out my laptop, I am waiting to get my serial number back. I need to know how I download Logic Pro 9 with the codes I already have.

    If you bought the boxed set of Logic Studio 2.0  which includes LP9, then you cannot  download it. You must use the disks that came as part of the boxed set... to install from.
    If you bought the App Store version of Logic Pro 9 then go to the Mac App Store App,  Sign into the Store using the same Apple ID you used to purchase LP originally, look under the Purchase Tab and you shouldl find LP9 ready and waiting for you to download and install.

    You can try an alternative.
    This is the quickest thing that came to mind, but if you want to wipe it with no care of the data on the device at all:
    Place device in recovery mode (turn off device > hold home button + plug in to iTunes (WHILE HOLDING BUTTON)).
    iTunes will give you an error saying it detected a device in recovery mode, you need to restore to use device. Restoring device is a factory reset. AKA a wipe of the device

  • Cleaning a laptop screen

    There are some spots on my laptop screen like there is dirt or something stuck there. What can I use to clean the screen with? I know I can't use plan old multipurpuse cleaner on a flat screen and I know you shouldn't put a lot of pressureon it either. So what product or service would be best? Thanks!

    Just use a LCD screen cleaner, but NEVER EVER use something like Windex...EVER!

  • External monitor works only works when laptop screen displays

    Hi there, I just connected a different (newer, but not brand new) external monitor to my T61.  When I toggle screens (fn-f7) the external display gets no signal in the 'external display only' position, but displays beautifully in the 'both' position.  This never happened with my old monitor.  I would like to use the external display and not have the laptop screen display.  Any ideas? Many thanks, Ellen

    Try this:
    After connecting external monitor, press win key+p and thrn choose projector only.

  • P845t-4310 Laptop screen won't sleep

    My guess is that something you've installed causes this. Does it work after a clean boot?
       1. Open the System Configuration utility (msconfig.exe). You can do that by typing msconfig at the Start screen and pressing Enter.
       2. On the Services tab, set the Hide all Microsoft services check box and then click Disable all.
       3. On the Startup tab, click Open Task Manager, right-click and disable each Startup item. Then close Task Manager.
       4. Back on the System Configuration screen, click OK, and restart the computer.

    DriveReadySeekComplete errors are either:

    Out of these 3, the last one sounds the most reasonable with nowadays harddrives. And yes, your system will hang when all your important processes are hanging while trying to do disk I/O.

  • Laptop Screen Flickering

    Can the Geek Squad fix  what appears to be a loose wire or short in our laptop screen?

    Yes, but, it would need to be sent out to the GS Service Center, and not done locally in a store.
    Your best/quicker bet might be to check out a local mom/pop store.

    I'm NOT an employee of Best Buy, or Geek Squad, though I did work as an Agent for a year 5 years ago. None of my posts are to be taken as the official stance that Best Buy will take on your situation. My advice is just that, advice.

  • Laptop screen plays back jumpy video, CRT looks fine

    I have a strange problem:
    When I play back video from FCP (6.0.6) in either the canvas or the viewer and the window is entirely on my laptop screen, it looks jumpy, sort of like if the playback frame rate was set to dynamic. If the window is even partially (like 10%) on the CRT, the playback is fine. The jumpiness goes away if I set the playback quality to Medium.
    I have been editing with this setup for a year or so and only recently noticed this. I've recently upgraded to Snow Leopard, but FCP is still 6.0.6. Is this a Snow Leopard / FCP version problem? It seems odd that it would only exist on my laptop's LCD screen and not my CRT.
    System Details:
    I have a 2.6 Ghz Macbook pro with 2gb of ram. The DVI out is connected to an old LaCie Electron Blue 22" CRT. I typically edit with both screens, usully putting the canvas on the laptop screen and the viewer on the CRT. My playback framerate is set to full and video quality set to high. My capture scratch drive is an OWC Mercury Elite Pro set up as a RAID 0 and connected via Firewire 800. My sequence setting is ProRes 422 1440x1080 and the footage was shot with a Canon XH A1. Some was captured as ProRes and some as HDV, but the problem happens with both kinds of footage.
    Any thoughts?
    Thanks,
    - Bruce

    I suppose that makes sense. I do wonder, though, why it would have this weird behavior where it only does it if the entire window is on the laptop screen. If just a little sliver of it is on the CRT, then it's fine. Also, why would it prioritize the performance of the second display over its main display?
    Is there any way to boost the graphics card performance? Would more RAM take some of the pressure off the graphics card, or are the tasks strictly separate?
