A vertical white stripe means a portion of the lcd has failed...it will continue to get worse as time progresses. The ONLY way to fix it is to swap the lcd out with a working one. It isn't a loose connection, etc.
Please only rate my solution as either 4 thumbs or no thumbs. Trust me I have been repairing laptops for 10 years. The lcd needs to be replaced. Cheapest way to accomplish this is to take the lcd housing apart and find the part number of the lcd in the laptop, search for that part number on ebay, order, install, done. Takes about 15-20 minutes. Cost is usually 40-100 depending on your lcd.

Is the stripe always visible when the laptop is on? Is it opaque, or transparent? What I mean, is can you see anything through the stripe?
yes. it is always visible. it is NOT transparent. It covers anything under it.
