After installing a windows update prompt, the monitor screen of the laptop divides itself in equal half with the right side normal while the left side is dim. I can still read info on it but the colour is distorted (not true colour)
Why is there a monitor (external) on a Laptop.
I guess the laptop LCD died too?
no monitor told, makers name and brand
or are you calling the lock LCD screen a monitor, well it is not.
most old monitors died now, 2010 and older, non told
they all die or 1/2 screen dead, from 1/2 the CCFL back lamps
are Dead or dim or yellow tinged, or blink or fully intermittant
the cur for the monitor, if is one, is test it on a 2nd PC. bingo good/bad known.
if not a monitor here same answer. CCFL die in PCs old and monitors.
CCFL are cold cathode fluorescent lamps.
no PC told
no photos of bad screens. sad face.
Usually not. The circuitry that drives the panel is integrated with the screen.
It's some work but those screens are serviceable and you can often find a good replacement on eBay at a fraction of the cost of a new HP part. A local small computer shop could probably swap it out for you in less than an hour.
Good luck.
