D_block Posted April 21, 2010 Share Posted April 21, 2010 So i was working on a dell inspiron 1525 recently. the problem was a lot of vertical lines ( i didnt count how many )always in the same spot. i booted in VGA Mode, Safe mode even in the bios they are showing up. so i know its not software based or driver error.but i dont have a dell inverter or lcd panel to check it either to test.. btw, i tried the external monitor also and it works flawless.so my question is, whats most likely the culprit here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Semangka Posted April 21, 2010 Share Posted April 21, 2010 Does it appear permanently or random? I am sure the problem is in your LCD panel. Maybe on the screen or ribbon connector to the LCD panel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Semangka Posted April 21, 2010 Share Posted April 21, 2010 In most cases the problem is on the ribbon connector between the LCD panel to the Mainboard. Some type of laptops has bad design on its flips. so the cable connector can be broken if you shut or open the lid. I suggest you to take the laptop to the Dell Service Center, it still has any warranty on it?. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
puntoMX Posted April 22, 2010 Share Posted April 22, 2010 It's the panel for 100%; The connector on top of the screen that is glued to the LCD grid is not making good contact any more.Solution: Replace LCD... no other way... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ponch Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 If it was damaged cable, you would likely have flickers when you move the lid. If its really permanent, I'd say ...panel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
