On my Dell Studio 1558, screen has several vertical lines from top to bottom: A couple of those on the very left of the screen and some others about 2 inches from the left border. They appear in different colors but most of those are white (means no video on the lines). But if I twist the whole screen (grabbing the top screen corners, pulling the right and pushing the left), all lines gone and screen looks good. Any idea? Still need to replace it?

SOURCE: Bottom Half of Laptop Screen quickly fades to white!

1. you can replace it with a new screen. (expensive) 2. have a technician to repair the board of the screen, the cable, the IC's, etc. (save you money but the length of repair is very long. maybe it will take a week or two.)
your choice.

SOURCE: my dell studio 1558 has not been working since

If the system is 2 months old, your best bet is Dell Tech Support as the system should be under warranty. If you hold the D Key and press the power button this should run the LCD BIST and you should get 4 solid colored screens. If you don't the LCD is bad. If you do, then the issue is likely the video card.

Does the motherboard on my Dell Studio 1558 support USB 3.0

i see that the USB port is 2.0,and you need to upgrade your motherboard in order to use USB 3.0 device,and since it's a laptop,like what you said,it's very expensive

I have dell studio 1558 laptop.The ATI card on the motherboard got burned.However i learnt that the whole series of i3 processors in the studio 15 were faulty and if i buy the same motherboard again t

I would not consider replacing the motherboard, in fact Dell should be replacing the laptop for a design that does not have these heat related issues, I think if you made enough noise about this particular line they may replace what you have lost.

I have a dell studio 1558 and its integrated webcam is not working and its not working on the dell webcam central either can you please help me fix it?

You can download the WEBcam abd device drivers from Dell WEB site,the support download page. Make sure you select your model desktop or laptop,better still, type in the Service Tag number, it is printed on the label on thebottom of the laptop and on the back or sides of a desktop. (If the Service Taglabel is missing then go into the BIOS setting and on one of the BIOS pages, theService Tag number will be displayed). This will open the page where thespecific drivers for your model computer are located. Also make sure you selectthe Windows of the drivers for your Windows operating system.
