My Emachines laptop had a red vertical line in the middle of the screen,
and the screen flickered occasionally.
The line is a dead pixel, which in time developed in to four lines:
2 blue and 2 red; and sometimes a yellow.
The flickering is a backlight issue.
The problems could be caused by connections, cables, backlight, backlight inverter, or the LCD screen. I opted for the later, replaced it and it looks like brand new!
I got the screen NIB off eBay from LaptopScreen1.com. They even link to a guide to do the repair.
It’s easy, if I can do it, any one can do it…or they will do it for a nominal fee.

Re: Laptop screen repair
It's not hard to do at all, I'll post a guide for you after work. If you can open the top of the laptop (Take the keyboard off and the top plate off so you can see the metal "cage") and take a picture, I could give you a more detailed description of what to do

Re: Laptop screen repair
Usually dead pixels and related LCD screens problems can only be solved by replacing the screen itself, it's not hard science, as the replacement kits usually have all the parts needed, the LCD itself and a new interface cable.
I've done a couple of Dell laptop LCD replacement and was easy.

Re: Laptop screen repair
good tutor there.. I will try it myself on my friends lappy.
Here, @ the service center, last time they charged some 300 Rupees for changing the screen. I didn't know about it though. Let me experiment it... hope I wont burn the circuit.. lolz.Last edited by devil_me; 06-29-2007 at 11:11 AM.
