What is wrong with my LCD? Help!

Hi guys,
Hoping you can give me some advice on what is going on with my screen.
I have attached a photo but basically anything that is usually white on the screen now shows up as vertical blue lines.
It is not a software/driver problem as it occurs on startup/in the bios, and it doesnt occur if I connect an external monitor.
I have tried swapping the RAM around etc and the problem still occurs so dont think its video ram (uses the same ram?)
The problem has been getting progressively worse. By pushing on either the palm rest or sometimes on the power strip cover the problem goes away for a while but then comes back in 5 minutes.  So I assume it must be some cable/connection.
Is it worth me trying to repair this myself? Where should I start? Replace the signal cable?
Thanks for your help.

if you have valid warranty, just call lenovo support.
you may void your warranty if you have. if you don't hava valid one, it could be cable, connector, graphic card or lcd itself.

    What's wrong with this piece of code:
    clickhereButton.addActionListener(this);
         ^
    That's my button's name.
    Everytime I try to complie the .java file with this code in it it says:

    Please help.

    You must have that code in a method or an initilizer block... try moving it to eg. the constructor.

  • What Is Wrong With My Program Help

    This Is The Assignment I Have To Do:
    Write a Java program that prints a table with a list of at least 5 students together with their grades earned (lab points, bonus points, and the total) in the format below.
    == Student Points ==
    Name Lab Bonus Total
    Joe 43 7 50
    William 50 8 58
    Mary Sue 39 10 49
    The requirements for the program are as follows:
    1.     Name the project StudentGrades.
    2.     Print the border on the top as illustrated (using the slash and backslash characters).
    3.     Use tab characters to get your columns aligned and you must use the + operator both for addition and string concatenation.
    4.     Make up your own student names and points -- the ones shown are just for illustration purposes. You need 5 names.

  • HELP My webcam has horrible picture, horrible pixel capture rate, ect. What's wrong with it? HELP

    I (try to) use a Creative Live! Cam Video IM Pro webcam. The sound seems to work great. The effects I can add to the videos seem wonderful. There is only one major problem......the picture on this webcam is abysmal. It isn't just too dark or too sloppy or whatever, the whole pixel capturing rate seems heavily flawed. The webcam picture (both video recording, photo capture, and everything else) is extremly blurry and my face looks like a moving colored blob. The video picture looks like a tiny picture that has been enlarged a lot that you can see the little pixel squares, and the problem gets worse when you actually start the recording and is incoherent.
    The webcam is relatively new and cost me $50. Now this may not be a particularly expensi've webcam but it doesn't mean the picture should be as bad as a video from the 930s (worse in fact but with color). What is wrong with my webcam and what can I do to fix the picture?

    I think you can thank Apple for this.  See this discussion.

    maust I change the TFT panel or is something else?
    where can I find a list of compatible screens with my notenook?
    thanks
    Federico

    Hi
    There could be also something wrong with the graphic card or FL-inverter.
    I would recommend asking the Toshiba service for the help because they can check exactly the notebook.
    The fact is that the display or the motherboard are the most expensive notebooks parts.
    If you will buy a display and replace this but the failure persists so you will spend money for nothing.

  • What is wrong with Time Machine_need help

    I run a PowerMac G5 with 2 internals 250Gb drives. The second one is on Do not backUp in the TM options.
    Here is the question. I had a 500Gb external for TM, and it kept close to 6 months of backups.
    It died on me and I repaced it with a new one (laCie 500Gb) on Oct 10/09 and started a new TM backup program. As of today, my oldest backUp on TM is Feb 02/2010 and I see only 12 backUps above Latest.
    I downloaded the Widget you mentioned and the last entry is:

    I am not doing anything different as before, so what is happening,
    Need your help.

    get TimeTracker http://www.charlessoft.com/ or Backuploupe and see what exactly is being backed up every time. it will give you a better idea of why the backups are so large.

  • I need help figuring out what is wrong with my Macbook Pro

    I have a mid 2012 Macbook Pro with OS X Mavericks on it and for the past few weeks it has running VERY SLOW! I have no idea what is wrong with it, i have read other discussion forums trying to figure it out on my own. So far i have had no luck in fixing the slowness. When i open applications the icon will bounce in dock forever before opening and then my computer will freeze with the little rainbow wheel circling and circling for a few minutes... and if i try to browse websites it take forever for them to load or youtube will just stop working for me. Everything i do, no matter what i click, the rainbow wheel will pop up! The only thing i can think of messing it up was a friend of mine plugging in a flash drive a few weeks ago to take some videos and imovie to put on his Macbook Pro, he has said his laptop has been running fine though... so idk if that was the problem. Anyways, could someone please help me try something? Thank you!!

  • What is wrong with my font? Squares instead of letters - Help!

    Can someone tell me what is wrong with my system font? Everytime I need to put my administrator key the login page will appear but with weird glitched font of squared A's all around (see picture).  I can't recall that I have done any installations that would mess with it.
    Any help greatly appreciated.
    Regards,

    You have a bad System Font.
    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    *Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
    Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
    (Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
    If perchance you can't find your install Disc, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.
    Once Disk Reports OK, reinstall the OS.

  • I don't know what's wrong with my 3GS. It only shows the black screen with white apple. Turning it on then off doesn't help.

    I don't know what's wrong with my 3GS. It only shows the black screen with white apple. Home button and turning the phone off then on doesn't seem to do anything.

    Thanks Lucas,
    I've tried doing that with no results. Same screen keeps showing. Maybe it'd be more helpful if I told you a bit more info.  My phone was randomly playing music, and the voice control would also suddenly start without me touching the phone.  Then I let the battery die and started to recharge when on the screen it indicated to plug into my computer/iTunes, I tried to restore but was getting an error message (can't remember what it said now). Battery died and now my current issue of the black screen with white apple.  I'd love to be able to restore my phone but now its not showing as a device on my iTunes. HELP! Any other suggestions?

  • What's wrong with my device?  It does not allow me to make calls with Skype or Viber...  Can someone help?

    What's wrong with my device?  It does not allow me to make calls with Skype or Viber...  Can someone help?

    My device is a Blackberry Z30.  Skype and Viber just to work fine.  I had to travel abroad and turn off data services while traveling outside of the US but the applications worked just fine with Wi-Fi.  Suddenly they stopped working to make calls.  I can still send text messages, but when I try to do a voice or video call (in the case of skype), it only says "failed call" and when I try to call using Viber I get an error message that says the I can not use the application until I complete my GMS call which is ridiculous because I'm not using the phone other than trying to place my call through Viber. The interesting thing is that when I go the permission page in my security settings everything indicates that its on but is gray out and I do not have access to change any setting.  The same in both applications.  The rest of the applications are accessible to change settings.   I already uninstalled skype and reinstalled it and still the same problem.  I'm ready to back up everything and wipe out the device to original settings.

    Edit: thanks for cross-posting this question on another forum. I now see that I wasted my time trying to study your code in the java-forums to help you with an answer that had already been answered elsewhere (here). Do you realize that we are volunteers, that our time is as valuable as yours? Apparently not. Cross-post again and many here will not help you again. I know that I won't.
