Dell lcd monitor one green line in

Does it look anything like this? I'm no computer guy at all, but I had that issue with my Dell laptop and the line disappeared completely. How? After watching that bright green line getting Ionger and longer every day I stopped using my laptop for one whole week due to the holidays. After that first week I turned it on to check some random file and to my surprise, the line was a lot smaller and disperse. I had this 2 week long trip the following week so I decided leaving my laptop at home to see if the line kept getting smaller. When I got home from my trip I turned on my laptop hoping the line were actually reduced, and it was completely gone, completely and absolutely gone. I would recommend you to stop using your lptop for 3 weeks or so. Good luck

You should have a video plug on the side of your laptop. It might be a 9 pin plug or a 15 pin plug. You can attach an external monitor or LCD monitor to this plug. If the green line displays on the external monitor then your video circuit on your laptop is faulty. If the line is not present on external display then your laptop LCD display panel is defective.

Some LCD monitors have built-in speakers.
Run a 3.5 millimeter stereo-cable from the "line-in" socket on the monitor to the GREEN coloured "line-out" socket on your computer's sound-card.

Or, connect the speakers to that same GREEN "line-out" socket.

This sounds similar to a fault i had with an old dell laptop... very thin vertical lines running the length of the screen. Unfortunately it was an LCD problem, the screen was kaput replacing the screen solved the problem.

To test if it is an LCD fault, simply plug your laptop into an external monitor... if you get no lines on external monitor then its a faulty LCD screen.

Is that solution genuine enough for you?

that is a fault of signal cable bend it and see is there any difference in the color then change hte signal cable problem will be solved if persist then open the monitor and look any dry solder inside the pcb

Your laptop screen has been faulty. you can checked it from service center.

Have you unplugged the power cord to the LCD? Let it sit for a minute, then try it. ALWAYS buy a UPS and plug any computer devices into it. Doesn't have to be big, a $50 unit will protect it from dangerous voltage surges.

Please rate this response thanks.

Look for bulged or leaking capacitors on the power supply board. If you can solder, you should be able to replace them with the same type and rating and that may just solve the problem. I've had luck with a couple of dozen monitors so far.

The driver tabs between the LCD panel and it's controller board have failed.
These are very fragile and not repairable for anything in the cost effective range.
Best option is to either find a new panel to replace it, or get a new monitor.
