Hp Pavilion N5472 Laptop Screen With Horizontal Line


Anyway about a week ago, my hp pavilion n5472 laptop developed a horizontal line approx a quarter down the screen, and it just wont shift. Changes colour when i visit a website with colours, for example if the site is white, the line becomes green, if the site is black the line turns grey. Is there anything i can do to get rid of this line? When i try to 'mouse over' the line, it appears that the mouse goes under the line. If that helps to describe it :confused also is it likely that the line is an actual physical fault with the machine, or something to do with drivers and such.

Horizontal Screen Tearing

I have my 5850 crossfire setup displaying to 2 monitors. My samsung 23 inch 2048x1152 and my samsung 1080p tv. When i have both displays on, say i am watching a divx movie on one screen and web surfing on the other, i get a crapload of horizontal screen tearing, if the movie is playing it is worse, if the movie is paused it is not as bad. Does anyone else experience issues like this? If i only use one display it will not have the problem. My computer monitor is hooked up via dvi and my tv via hdmi. Ideas?

Horizontal And Vertical Lines On Screen

The other day out of nowhere my screen starts going nuts. It has a bunch of horizontal and vertical lines on the screen and they kind of move when the mouse is over them. When i open a new window, for example an aim window or notepad, parts of the program will display fine, without any lines, and other parts will continue the line pattern on the screen. When my computer starts up, it has weird gray images that almost look like japanese letters on the windows xp splash screen. I checked a different monitor and the picture is still weird, so it isn't monitor, so im guessing its video card. ? Anyone ever heard of a problem like this?

Dell Inspiron 1501 Screen Vertical Line

I recently got a new computer and my old dell inspiron 1501 got a vertical thick line in the left middle of the screen and it's not like it's crashing it's there no matter what i do. I don't know how to fix it but have step by step instructions would be nice. And the line is not opaque you can see through it. And the line always has a remnant of the last screen my computer was on. I don't know what to do!

White Line On Laptop Lcd

My laptop lcd developed a 5 pixel high strange line across the screen less than halfway up. From top to bottom it looks as follows:

3 white pixel lines
1 normal pixel line
1 white pixel line

What makes it strange to me is that all of the white pixel lines can change, albeit very slowly. In other words, if i'm displaying a photo if i minimize it the "white lines" become darker, even to the point that when i restore the photo i can no longer see the white line at some points. I thought it would mean that there was some dead transistors but that would mean that no shading/color or change would happen right? Any bright ideas on what is happening and if there is hope at repair/solution?

Laptop Monitor - Permanent Vertical Green Line

The monitor on my dell latitude d505 is currently displaying a vertical green line from the top to the bottom of the screen, about 1/3 of a screen width from the right hand side. This line fades in during the dell splash screen and persists whether i boot into linux or windows. I'm assuming this is a hardware problem, but does anyone have any definitive advice on what may cause this?

Laptop Hard Drive / Hp Pavilion Laptop Ze1110

I have an hp pavilion laptop ze1110 that has a hard drive that is about to die. The drive is accessible through a bay in the front of the laptop so it shouldn't be too difficult to change (i hope). My question is, where should i/can i get the replacement hard drive? Hp? Newegg? What sort of things should i look out for when purchasing and swapping out a laptop hard drive.

Hp Pavilion Black Screen

I was recently giving a hp pavilion by my brother when he moved out of the house and he told me if i could get it running it was mine to keep. Apparently it crashed on him and he thinks the hard drive is messed up. The operating system is windows vista i know that. When i boot up the computer everything is normal until i get past the loading screen and it just gives me a black screen, i tried putting in the system recovery cd to wipe everything clean from the hard drive, but i boot it up get the black screen which after several minutes changes to a blue screen, then after several more minutes changes to a the system recovery screen. From there i tell it to restore to factory qualities then it freezes at 0%. Any suggestions as to what im doing wrong?

Hp Pavilion Xt858 No Beeps Screen Blank

This computer was booting properly a few days ago. It would bott to windows and then lock up a few minutes later. I powered it on and off so many times, i'm wandering if it was damaged. I get no beeps, the keyboard lights for a second and than goes off. I have tried a seperate pci graphics card and that brought up the hp screen for a second. That was the last i ever saw of it! I have tried booting without the hard drive to get me into dos. I can't even get into dos with a boot disk. There is no cursor on the screen. The fan is running on the cpu. The memory is correct. I have reset the bios jumper and reset the cmos battery. Nothing is working. Hp's site is terrible.

Hp Pavilion Dv6 Won't Run Games In Full Screen

My hp pavilion dv6 won't run games in full screen? I have a laptop hp pavilion dv6 windows 7 home premium. Any games i play won't run in full screen such as starcraft, warcraft, counterstrike, and etc. All those games have black bars left out on each side of screen and it's small. I hate it =_=. I've been searching on google how to fix it and some people said you can't play full screen games on windows 7 but i know it's not true because my girlfriend has hp g60-535dx laptop and it's also windows 7. One time she was playing game with me for fun and i was just messing around with her. She got mad and hit the keyboard crazy for 2 seconds until her screen(which was like mine) turned into full screen. From that point on, every games she plays on her laptop runs on full screen. And also when she clicks ctrl+shift+arrow buttons, the desktop changes into portrait, lanscape, upside down, etc. Can you guys help me to get my computer to run games in full screen? The screen is too small t. T i like it on full screen. And no the property setting change on games won't help. I can't even change the compatibility. Thanks for your help and i hope i can fix this problem.

Horizontal Lines All Over A Monitor

My friend is having a problem with jagged, horizontal lines covering his monitor. This obviously sounds like a video card issue and he fixed it for the time being by removing his graphics card and is running through onboard support at the moment. Does this mean his graphics card is fried/ruined or is it reparable?

We were trying to figure out why this happened to his 8800gt since it was purchased in the last year. I asked him what his power supply wattage was and it turns out he was running a amd x2 4800+ and a 8800gt system on only 300w. So i'd assume the psu is the culprit. Is it not uncommon for inadequate power supplies to make video cards or other components fail like his did? Also i don't know if this has anything to do with anything, but he mentioned his heatsink fan dislodged from its sockets for a period of time. His cpu is fine though and suffered no damage. I'd like to make sure he gets this fixed because we spend a lot of time playing online games together. Do you think he'll need a new graphics card and psu? Hopefully the gfx card warranty is still valid if this is the case.

Hp Pavilion Dv9000 Laptop Problem

My husband has owned an hp pavilion dv9000 laptop (for quite sometime, i'd guess about 4-5, maybe 6 years), and it just recently decided to cut out on us. Here's the problem: i turned it on one day, and it loaded up fine. I went to type in the password, realized i made an error, and backspaced. Before i could retype the password, the screen decided to glitch on me, and so i shut it back down. I waited a few minutes, and after pressing the power button, the lights came on but the screen stayed black. I could feel the computer vibrating slightly (as if it were functioning properly), but no matter how long i waited there was no sound or light on the screen. I have tried to restart it numerous times since then (it's been weeks) but only to receive a black screen with the power light on. We've also tried to remove the battery and restart it once we replaced the battery, but that did nothing.could someone please help us and tell us what on earth the problem is, what a remedy could be, and how we could get our files off of that computer?

Hp Pavilion Dv3t-200 Laptop Charger Problem

I have a problem with my charger or laptop. I really don't know which one at the moment. I have an hp pavilion dv3t-200 windows 7 home premium laptop. I noticed recently that whenever i plug in my charger the led light doesn't come on anymore even though the laptop is charging. I find that when i move around the charger a bit, the light starts to turn on and off and blinks. I also notice that when my battery power gets low, my computer starts to slow down or freeze and this never happened before until i upgraded from my vista to 7. Anyone have any idea what might be wrong?

If Disconnect Laptop Screen, Will External Screen Still Work ?

If i disconnect my laptop's screen, will an external screen still work? I have an acer aspire5315 laptop. What i am doing is i am putting it into a custom case that will not fit the built-on screen. The laptop does have a vga output (so i can connect it to another monitor, or hdtv. ) So, if i disconnect the laptop screen completely from the motherboard, will an external one connected via vga still work?

Laptop Screen Problem

I have a big problem with my laptop screen. I have a hp zv6000 15. 4 widescreen. My laptop was fine. I put it in the case and traveled in the car with it for a few hours. When i took it out i now have this huge mark that basically goes from one corner to the other. Sort of an arch. I look very similar to a permanent marker. I found a dead pixel tester online and downloaded it to see. It seems that they the screen doesnt have dead pixels. I am assuming the only way to fix this is to replace the lcd screen itself. I was hoping maybe i could replace the inverter and be ok but i doubt it. I wanted to double check with someone that maybe has some experience with this issue.

Swapping Laptop Screen

What factors are relevant in determining screen compatibility between laptops? My laptop was taken out in a lightning storm, and it doesn't look like it's worth fixing. However, the screen is perfectly good. And there are a lot of people who'll sell laptops with busted screens for dirt cheap. So i figure if i can find a laptop in need of a new screen with which my old one is compatible, i can save some dough. There's the question of what happened to a laptop which has a dead or cracked screen, and whether or not i'd want it in light of whatever the *** happened to it. But it seems worth investigating to me. I know some obvious things - such as it having to the same size, of course. But i'm unaware of all the factors that need to be identical for one screen to work in another unit, or whether there are any resources out there that can simplify the process of determining compatibility. So if anyone could let me know what things must be identical in order for this to work, and if there are any websites, etc. That can help make the process of determining compatibility easier, that'd be great.

Broken Laptop Screen

So i had a stoke of bad luck and my laptop fell off the table, the screen is cracked and needs to be replaced, it will cost me 500+ to get it repaired so i was wondering if anyone could tell me exactly how hard it would be to buy the lcd screen and repair it myself, i've built countless desktops in my day so i'm good with computer hardware but have never delt with laptops before as far as building, so if anyone knows what it would take to do this please let me know. I don't know if it makes a different but the laptop is an alienware area-51 m5550 15. 4" screen, also if anyone knows where i could get the parts needed for this as well it would be very much appreciated.

Using Different Lcd Screen For Laptop

Will a laptop not work if its connected to a different lcd? This is pure curiosity. I know that the lcd might not fit, but could you theoretically change the lcd screens of two laptops or do they have different little connectors. Or even if they fit, would they not work? I've always wondered this since i've changed my laptop's screen.
