vertical lines on laptop screen

Expand Post »
While shipping my laptop, the laptop seems to have got a shock. The top 40 % of the screen is showing the correct display whereas the remaining portion shows vertical lines.
What could be wrong ? any help would be appreciated. I am attaching the picture of the laptop

I have also seen this happen if the driver is expecting the wrong screen.
