what happen to my lappy screen? got green & purple line at the bottom of laptop screen
definitely hardware problem bcoz when i take screenshot it was clean


if repair at shop how much wallet damage?

if lucky, a ribbon related problem, under 100 bucks

if not lucky, panel problem, it will be 300 ~ 500 bucks depends on model

what model ?

oh mann.. i hope ribbon problem onli.., if up to 300-500 i rather buy new led monitor

lenovo y580

what graphic card model ? try use external monitor @ lcd?

gtx 660m.. havnt try connect external monitor yet..

ok i'll try it first after back from work

Does those lines occur even before booting into Windows (such as the startup logo and/or BIOS screen)? Does it always stay in the same place all the time (even at startup logo and/or BIOS screen)? If it does then very like the problem is the LCD panel (bonding tabs on the bottom section becoming "loose")...

yes it is, and yes it is

so if that's the problem,
can DIY to fix it?
if i repair at shop how much the acceptable repair cost?

thanks

Nopes, cannot be fixed/repaired by DIY methods, as special factory equipment is required to re-seal those bonding tabs (since they contain microscopic conductive traces). Usually the entire LCD panel has to be replaced.

LCD panel replacements very much depends on the cost of the LCD panel itself (different prices for different LCD panel brand and model), and these usually range anywhere from at least/minimum RM200 and always above that. You may want to inquire at the repair shop on the possible cost of repair first...

oh crap... now it getting worst... now the whole screen going purple - green layer
it happen right in front of my eyes while i was playing games

I guess there goes entire rows of bonding tabs (which is usually sealed/glued by heat). An entire LCD panel replacement is looks to be necessary at the moment...

ive run hdmi view on tv screen and it display correctly, i guess it is as u said... thanks anyway
