first off i am not real smart with computers and their lingo so here goes. Computer is just over 5 yrs old. about 4 months ago the monitor would flicker or 'get lines' when you moved the monitor. as time goeson it got worst and worst and now i haven't used it in over 2 wks. it got the point that if you touched or moved the laptop a millimetre it would flicker, get liney, freeze, watnot. its a realy awesome laptop and woudl love an easy fix or atleast to know what it is before takin it into a shop. mentioned it to a future shop salesguy and he said it sounds like a short in the monitor..needs to be replaced. someone else mentioned graphis card. it reallyr eally does act like it has a short cause it only does it if you touch it...even thevery smallest amount.

any suggestions would be muchly appreciated ;o)


lori

i should fully mention, that it is a LAPTOP :)
