Vertical lines screen hp envy 6-1001 tx

Hi all,
My HP envy 6- 1001 tx strated to show a vertical line (red) on the right side of the screen in some positions like a year ago, depending on how I was openning the computer, e.g. to which extend the screen was opened, but till now, I managed to get rid of it just by changing the screen position.
However, few weeks ago, the vertical line has been persistant, and even worst, any time I move the screen of the laptop (up or down), there are like 10 vertical lines showing up in this side of the screen. Now, at any position, I have half a dozen multi colour lines blue, and red ones, on the right side of my laptop.
Also, when I press with my fingers the plastic around the screen near the hinge, the lines just disapear, but as soon as I remove my fingers, they reappear. It seems to be linked to the hinge, as when I press the right hinge, the screen is well again.
I am 100% sure it 's not a driver or graphic card problem as I use to plug my computer to my TV (HDMI) and there is no vertical line. It s a hardware issue, linked to the unfortunately HP envy hinge issue.
I bought the computer in Australia and I m living in France now.
Please tell me how to proceed to get rid of this,
Moulay

How to get vertical line screen effect?

How can I convert a grayscale photo to a vertical LINE B/W image (no grayscale)? I can't find a way to do it with the filters in PS CS6. Is there a plug-in that will do that?
Mac OSX10.6.6. Photoshop CS6.

No filter or plug-in nedded. Just go to Image > Mode > and make sure your image is in 8-bit mode depth, not 16 bit. Then, on that same menu convert the image first to Grayscale and then to Bitmap.

HP iq772.uk multi coloured vertical lines on boot

Hi guys,
I've got a iq772.uk all in one shaped brick at the moment. All it does on start up is show me some random bunch of different coloured vertical lines. The hard drive and fan are buzzing away, so I just think this is a graphics card issue.
It's well out of warranty, I just wondered if anyone knows if it has an integrated chip set or a separate graphics card that I could replace before I take it apart? Obviously if it's built in it would be a bit of a no go.
Cheers,
Nicola

I experienced similar problems. From digging around on the web, I found that HP Quinn Outsmarts suffer from a few different video issues. A really excellent website is www.touchsmartdevzone.com (look at the vertical lines screen problem thread).
Mine had a failed video graphics card. Here's what I did to resolve the situation:
Objective: Remove fried EXTERNAL graphics card and swap to the ONBOARD card (you won't be able to play graphically demanding games, but in all other situations there will be no difference), which is a Gofer 6610 with IAMB RAM.
Remember: Switch the power OFF, but leave the plug in. Earth yourself first by touching the chassis AND remember these instructions aren't aimed at technically incompetent people who are likely to hurt themselves, hurt others or break things along the way
Method:
Uncover the back part of base section. This is quite easy, as all you need to do is unscrew the two screws on the back of the base (one just above the power socket and the other on the opposite site, just by the Ir Out). The plastic cover slides backwards with a bit of a pull. This reveals around 75% of the motherboard.
Remove the DVD player. This, too, is quite easy. Looking from the back of the unit, the DVD is to the top right. Remove the cable connector on the end of the DVD. A bit fiddly and you may have to pull the cable for the mini VGA out to make some space. Lift the black plastic tab near the corner of the DVD and slide the DVD back and out.
Remove the front part of the base section. This is a PAIN. There are five screws: two at the front and three at the back. The two at the front are hidden under the label for the front USB ports, just behind the little door next to the power button. Use a sharp knife to gently lift the sticker - it will go back on again. Two of the three at the back are under where the DVD was. The last is right on the edge on the opposite side. Once all five screws are out you have to fiddle and push the panel forwards. It's held on by three spring clips, so it feels like you're going to break something. This reveals the rest of the motherboard and importantly the external graphics card.
CHECKPOINT: You can't go back after this step without buying some [cheap] bits. It may be worth (a) checking that the cooling fan is spinning and free from dust/hair, and (b) checking that simply wiggling the graphics card & heatsink & lead doesn't fix the problem.
Remove the graphics card. N.B. You will break some clips doing this, so be sure you want to go ahead. The graphics card sits under a heat sink at the very front of the base unit, right in the middle. You should be able to follow a strip of copper (CM wide) from its top to the cooling fan at the back of the base section. A second copper strip runs to the CPU. The heat sink is held down by four plastic clips/springs. You need to break these to remove them. A small pair of pliers will do the job. Now remove the two small screws holding the card in place and then remove the card from its slot.
Swap the graphics lead from external to onboard. This is easy, but took about ten goes before it worked (no idea why). The lead is plugged in at the front of the motherboard, just under where the DVD locates. It has a Mm white block connector that plugs into a slot labelled ELVES. Pull it out of this slot and plug it into the slot next to it, which is labelled ELVES.
Powering up should reveal a working screen. Windows will start with a generic driver, but can automatically detect the new card and, after a restart, you'll be back to normal (exception being the games).
You can buy replacement graphics cards, but they're not cheap (serial number is on the back of the cards). The card is an INVALID unit (could be 5188-7147 MGM GRAPHICNESS GM-MM CROSSFIRE). In theory, you could replace it yourself, but it will fry if you don't buy new spring clips, clean off the old CPU paste and apply new paste.
As I said in the Method, the first ten times I swapped the lead over, it simply didn't work and I was convinced the PC was for the bin. I reinstalled the old card and got it working for again for about five minutes, before it died with a bad burning smell. I reverted to the onboard slot one last time and found that it worked.
GOOD LUCK
Arnie

IMac 10.4.11 Because permanent vertical lines have appeared on my screen, I need to get a new monitor. The adapter apple sells goes from female VGA to mini-DVI. What kind of cable should I get as well:female to male?

If I use an adapter (female VGA to mini-DVI) for my iMac 10.4.11 OSX, I also need a cable. Should that cable be female VGA to male VGA?
Permanent vertical lines have appeared on my display, and connecting to another display (monitor) requires a cable and adapter. I want to be sure I am purchasing the correct cable for the Apple adapter.

What made me think I need to format if I upgrade the OS?
I just presumed so really.
What made me think I need to constantly format computer with my problem?
Well, after many attempts to repair the drive, which fails, cannot even reach the log in screen, I am left with no other choice?
And also, I have to note now, System Preferences keeps crashing without reason, it either takes ages to load, just by clicking it to open, or clicking something within it, or it just crashes.
And temporarily, it freezes the computer totally, with no response.
Seriously, am I missing a system file or something? Anyone experienced this problem before?
My computer is literally a blank computer right now, installed VLC and Shades, updated Adobe Flash Player, installed Skype and Adium. I would say Growl from Adium caused it, but it has happened prior to Skype and Adium. Any ideas anyone?
Thanks,

Can someone help me with my 27" iMac's Gray screen with 5 Pink Vertical Line Problem?

Hi there,
I'm new to the forums, but I have a serious problem with my nearly 4 year old iMac 27" model.
I was using my iMac one evening and then suddenly everything displayed on the screen gets immediately pushed to the left of the computer screen. Then after a minute, my screen turns a solid gray, displaying no dock, no header bar, no options, and the keyboard and mouse suddenly disconnect.
When I turned back on my computer, it seemed to boot up perfectly normal. The normal gray start-up screen displays:
Then it displays the Apple logo and begins to spin the loading circle icon below it. But this time it adds 5 vertical pink lines down the screen from left to right. They stay in place the entire time:
And then when the login screen finishes loading, instead of bringing up my Account and my Password text box, it displays just a solid gray screen with the same 5 pink vertical lines on it, as shown below:
I've let it set for a half hour and nothing changes. During this time the keyboard and mouse seem to be disconnected, nothing seems to work with the screen or the computer itself. I hold the on/off button on the rear, turning it off and then on again. The same process happens with the boot up, the Apple logo appears, then the spinning loading icon below it, and then the vertical bars appear and the Apple logo and spinning icon disappear.
Is this a problem with the screen that an external monitor hooked up to it might fix, or is it a graphics card problem? I didn't buy the extended warranty package for the computer and it's roughly 3 1/2 years old.
Any idea what might cause this and how it could be fixed in the cheapest way possible?

I have the same problem since yesterday evening.
My google research found this:
iMac (27-inch): AMD Radeon 6970M Video Card Replacement Program - Apple Support
Maybe this is our problem. My iMac fits into this category.

Tecra M3: black screen on start, vertical lines on external monitor

Hi all,
I've been searching a lot on the Internet for a solution to this specific problem I have but could not find a thread
with exactly the same problem.I have a Toshiba Tecra M3 with WinXp SP 3. Two weeks ago I encountered problems with starting up. After a couple of times restarting it would work. From then on it became worse... When I try to start up I see no splash.. the screen stays black. If I press the power button I hear the fan and the CD-drive but no screen. It's totally black. I know its working because I can go (blindly) into setup; press end, then Y and then enter. The notebook will restart but still no screen.
I hooked it up to an external monitor. Pressing Fn and F5 enables switching. The external monitor shows different
vertical lines in multiple colours. They change if I go to setup or try to start windows.
Does anyone have a solution to these problems?

Im having a similar problem,
I get the toshiba logo come up fine,
Then a bunch of black and white dots (its windows when has crashed and gives you option in safe mode) but you cant make out any of the text, I only know this because Ive delt with computers crashed before.
When windows XP SP 2 starts up basically there are white bar like dots vertically up and down the screen. Then finaly goes blue screen of death and restarts.
I have changed HDD with my old operating system so its not a virus, Ive taken out the ram, which is 2 x 1gb sticks. Ive tested them individualy and together yet I still get the same problem I mentioned above when I start my computer.
So its not the HDD or a virus, its not the ram, what is the problem here? The monitor looks fine with the toshiba logo (no dots up and down)
What do I need to fix it ? Whats broken?
Anyone who can help much apprciated.
cheers

When i open my computer I get the white screen with apple symbol and there are vertical lines all over the screen with green pixels and after a few minutes the screen gets grey and I get message to restart my computer what happens

3 years ago I bought an IMac Desktop that I am using for a lot of things but the most important for dvd montage in Imovies and Idvd.
Now today when I opened my computer I get as usual the white screen with the Apple symbol but there were all over the screen vertical lines with green pixels and after a while the screen gets grey and I get message to restart my computer using the power button or the restart button and when I do so each time the same is happening somebody can tell me what is happening and what caused this. This computer is my work and now I have no income anymore.
On the Apple support site they are asking to enter the serial number and when I do so I get message it is wrong but it is the only one I have and I buy this computer in Cairo Egypt. I am living in Hurghada in Egypt for the moment. When I call the technical support of the shop where I buy it they are telling me that it is the hard disk or ram and that I probably lost everything on it and they are asking a big amount to repair.
Can somebody advise me on this matter. Thanks in advance

You can find the serial number either in About this Mc in the Menu bar under the , or it should be on a sticker under the foot of the machine.
If you have the install discs, try booting from them, holding down the c key and then using Disk Utility to check the drive.
You can also boot into Safe mode
To start up into Safe Mode (to "Safe Boot"), do this:
   1. Be sure the computer is shut down.
   2. Press the power button.
   3. Immediately after you hear the startup tone, press and hold the Shift key.
      Tip: The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone but not before.
   4. Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple and progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
During the startup in Mac OS X 10.2 through 10.3.9, you will see "Safe Boot" on the Mac OS X startup screen.
During the startup in Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you will see "Safe Boot" on the login window, which appears even if you normally log in automatically.
Please post back with results,
To leave Safe Mode in any version of Mac OS X, restart the computer normally, without holding any keys during startup.

It's likely that the boot drive is failing, or that there's some other hardware fault. Run the Apple Hardware Test.

Even if the test is negative, you should make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store to have the machine tested more thoroughly.

When I was typing an email on my iPad, I hit something (???) on the screen which made the paragraph turn blue with a vertical line being added down the left hand boundary of the paragraph ! How do I get it to revert to being black type with no line ?

When I was typing an email on my iPad, I hit some part of the screen (not sure which part !)which made the type in the paragraph I was writing turn blue, and a vertical line appeared down the left hand boundary of the paragraph ! How do I get rid of the blue type and blue vertical line ?

A single tap of the blue does nothing ! A double tap offers copy, define, select all.

Why are there 2 thin red vertical lines on the screen of my MBP 15" retina which is only 2 months old!

I would just like to understand why there a two thin red vertical lines on the screen
I suspect I need to bring into an apple store for diagnostics but is anyone aware of the likely cause?
thanks v much!

It could be a GPU issue, a display issue or a display connection issue. The genius bar technician will offer you a definitive answer and should fix it under the warranty provisions.
Ciao.

IMac won't go past apple logo screen and vertical lines on display

I have an old white iMac that won't boot. When booting up the screen has vertical purple lines and I can see the Apple logo. The little "dial" just spins and spins. Does anyone know how to fix this? thank you for any and all help.

The vertical lines are indicative of a hardware problem. It is possible (likely) that this is also related to the inability to start up as well. It's almost impossible to diagnose and explain repairing hardware in these forums, so I think it best if you take the computer to a repair shop that is familiar with Macintoshes.

I inadvertantly dropped my iphone 3 and now have a white screen with green vertical lines to the right. It won't sync with itunes due to an error. What can I do?

I inadvertantly dropped my iphone 3 and now have a white screen with green vertical lines to the right of the screen. It won't sync with itunes due to an error. What can I do?

Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.
If it does not resolve the issue, the device is permanently damaged and will require replacement.

Coloured vertical lines on notebook screen

Satellite M60 BK300E. For full specification refer to http://www.toshiba.ca/web/product.grp?lg=en&section=1&group=223&product=4670 &part=3411#spectop
It's comparatively old model, about 3.5-4 years.
Recently I spotted colored vertical lines appearance on the screen, each has thickness of 1 pixel. The lines total 6 now. They are distributed nonuniformly and the positions they take on the screen remains unchanged at system startup.
I wonder if this may be incurred by video adapter fault or TFT matrix fault?

Test it with external monitor. If the situation is the same the graphic card is defective.
Other way if the picture is normal it must be defective LCD panel on the laptop.
