It started with one vertical blue line on the screen. A week later I got another one. Later more came , some of them were yellow some were red. It was anoying at first, but I could still use the laptop. Now I have a bunch of lines and two broad bands ,one whitish and the other greyish.
The laptop is unusable unless I plug into an external monitor which works perfectly.

I am almost ready to replace this LP171WX2 (A4) (K3) monitor but would like some input from others if something else could be causing the problem?.
I have disconnected the ribbon cable from the LCD and reconnected with no change.

Thank you in advance for your input.
Cheers Colin :?:
