Hi,

This can be one of three problems:

1 - The cable that connects your screen to your laptops motherboard has come loose. If the problem is intermittent or can be rectified by moving the screen / holding the laptop upside down then its this.

2 - The graphics card on your laptop has a fault. This is quite common with laptops that overheat.

3 - The LCD on your laptop has developed a fault.

The first issue can be fixed by taking the laptop apart and checking the cables, but beware - this is normally quite a complex job. The second and third issues will require replacement parts which can be quite expensive. Try to get a quote from a local PC technician (don't go to PC world...) and weigh up if the repair cost is worth it or wether you just just put that laptop on ebay (list it as faulty) and buy a new one.

Hope that helps!

SOURCE: Hp pavilion dv9000 wont boot,coloured lines appear no bootscreen

This is caused by burn out of the Nvidia graphics chip on the motherboard. You need a new motherboard. This is due to a design flaw (the subject of a class action against HP in the USA). I have had two motherboards fail on me in this way so far - do not expect any worthwhile support from the HP "support" people they are all in India and can hardly communicate outside of their simple repetative scripts. Its impossible to escape them - I tried communicating with head office but all you get is contact details back to the incomprehensible Indian call centre. I strongly recommend against ever purchasing from HP again.

SOURCE: Display problem

could be 2 main causes, either the LCD converter under or behind the screen under the beizel has failed and is messing up the display, or simply the sreen could have been cracked at one point, either way these parts have to be obtained from toshiba.. EMPR do toshibas spare parts, if you are in australia

SOURCE: grey screen but everything else works as normal

That sounds like a problem with your GPU, this is very common with Nvidia graphics cards when built onto motherboards for mobile devices. First contact HP to see if you have any warranty with them, if not then you can either look for a company that specialises in board repair in your area or if you are brave try a DIY fix. Search 'motherboard DIY reflow' on google or youtube to see an example. Hope this helps,

The bottom half of my ASUS laptop is mostly pink, with a few white lines running through it. I did not drop it or anything, it just appeared there.

your laptop appears to boot up and the hard disk LEDflashes, then the problem is probably a back light fault. This can be a faultyinverter or a faulty CCFL lamp. Please click on this link and follow myinstructions to identify the fault and possible fix :- http://www.fixya.com/support/r3598095-faulty_laptop_lcd_screen

Pink across the screen

The problem is in the LCD display, the only option is replacement. Go to www.ebay.com Type make and model of laptop, and refine search to screen, this will give you a list of sellers and cost.

Screen goes pink and green starting with a few pixels

Best thing to do, try a different known working monitor to hook up to the computer. If the screen works and doesn't change colors then you know its the original monitor that is bad.

If you hook up the known working monitor and the same problem happens then you know its the video card that is bad and the video card would have to be replaced.

Asus x83v screen is black and has vertical lines on half of it.

As the product is under a year old it should be covered under warranty. Get in touch with asus customer services before you let anyone attempt a repair as doing so may invalidate your warranty
