Netbook. A third of the screen covered in tiny vertical multi coloured lines.

DS2 kicked it or something. Is there any hope? On and off again didn't work.

my dh did this to mine 2 weeks ago (the bugger) but he's techy and has ordered a new screen for it which he is going to change himself. im not convinced but he assures me its going to work although im hoping for a new one anyway

ill have to update you to let you know how it goes

Thanks David. I have a tech man coming to see to my other laptop today (it has died) so I may run it past him.

We had a laptop at school that did this, we found that squeezing the frame of the screen together at a particular point stopped it, so that laptop wore a bulldog clip for a couple of weeks until the holidays, when the teacher couild spare it to get a new screen. Might be worth trying....

Ooh Rusty, I will go and have a squeeze.

No luck. But worth a go. Thanks. x
