[QUOTE=TallCool1]I assume you are talking about an LC display.

I have the same problem with my Toshiba Laptop. It is an active LC display. The problem is not software related, as the gray line appears immediately anytime the display is on. It does not appear when using the laptop's external video output. The twisting and shaking method did not work; I also dismantled the screen frame looking for any sign of bad contacts, but found nothing. Could it be on the video board output cable? Were anyone lucky on solving the problem?

Tks!
