no photo posted, of bad screen, why? why make help blind?
the display LCD is bad.
or is the 2008 , solderballs Nvidia chip failure.
if the screen fails in BIOS (press f10 or ESC to enter setup
an fails under boot CD linux or any kind the screen is bad
test with big battery out, always. run on AC power only to test.
do the funny LINES change if you gently twist screen case?
i see reviews on this LT back to 2009
the vista review page on its support pages is stamped 2008
oops !
the BIOS screens are here. hit ESC then F10
dv7-1245dx
this is called hp setup, its BIOS.
if these screens look bad, bingo for bad screen LCD or the GPU.
