OR Window$ XP sucks? BSOD? RSOD?

The other solution is just… lol..

Howdy!
I’ve faced same problem on my Asus a6 series.
Reason was wire connection LCD-Laptop failed.
If I pivoted LCD I could find proper position but it was not the solution.

I think it’s ghost infected her pc lah :D

I wonder if there are more (Color)SOD other than this. funny thing Windows is.

Overheated won’t cause the color problem. I had came over this problem before and basically there are 80% of LCD lid have wiring or cable problem. If that’s not under waranty, I will unscrew the LCD lid and reconnect the cable again, but if you are not in that expert just send in to computer shop. That could probably cost you few hundred bucks to thousand for just cable wiring.

You just let it cool off and it solves the problem? aiyah… you should have fast fast tried the 2nd suggestion! :)

I may suggest take off the battery and also bios battery if some one face this problem and still have the problem on the next day

Reboot the system removing the RAM , that wayit wil run miothout memero and set evrything top default

I fixed this problem, but I not sure which thing I did fixed it.

First, I lifted the keyboard and vacuumed the CPU heatsink and fan, this actually reduced the fan noise which I had not realise was so loud after a few years of build up dust.

Second, I swapped the RAM positions. 2 x 512MB

Third, I attempted to remove static in the laptop by touching a part of the metal frame inside the laptop and booting off battery only and holding the start button for 10 seconds.

Try this first before you take it to a computer shop as I’m sure they will just change the motherboard. Or do the above charge you for a motherboard.

This porblem occures because of the LCD Cable. Just make sure that it’s connected well or just replace it.

I actually JUST fixed this problem on my own laptop today!

what you’ll have to do is open the very top of the laptop, the panel just above the keyboard and right below the monitor. Then reseat the LCD cable. In my case I took it out completely and reseated it completey, using a lil bit of krazy glue to make sure it didn’t come loose again

The area you have to prop off is just above the keyboard and it holds the connector conecting the LCD to the MoBo.

I have an ACER Aspire 5630. This is how I fixed the same problem on my lappy.

Hope this helps :)

I have had this problem with my thinkpad and it is definately the lcd cable in my case i had to remove the whole screen and reconnect it in behind the lcd on a ribbon cable

I am having a Problem With an LCD on an Laptop

It is alwas Red in color, and I was wondering if any one knew how I could correct this problem, the desplay adapter plugged into anouther screen is fine , but I was wondering is it the LCD or settings for the LCD, can I change them

I have some bad news for all people who had the inverted colors problem: Unless you have the LCD cable problem (which is easy to fix, as described above), the only solution is to replace the screen. To make sure that the laptop itself is functioning properly, test the picture on an external display.

Final (and cheaper) solution: download the Powerstrip software from http://entechtaiwan.com/util/ps.shtm
The gamma correction tool can invert the colors back to normal (although only not 100% normal)

RE: PC Memoirs, duh, if is not the cable problem, then replace the screen, nothing else, you sounded professional which is not…lol

I’d comment on the ‘Buy a Mac’ comment. Fortunately, I don’t have to. The fine fellows at RoosterTeeth have answered for me and I couldn’t say it any better. :)

I’m going to quote myself here, from a couple of earlier posts:
To me, monitor repairman that I am, it sounds like bad contacts between the driver electronics and the display itself. One relatively easy test for this problem is as follows:

With the unit on, gently grasp the left and right edges of the display. Gently twist the display (no more than a few ounces of pressure) as though you are wringing out a towel. See if the display flashes, changes, etc. This may even fix the problem.

Try changing the display angle, a bit more open or closed, with power on. Changes at this point indicate a cable problem.

It’s also possible that one of the driver chips is actually defective. In this case, the above tests will have little or no effect.

Unfortunately, in most cases it is likely that the display is essentially beyond economical repair.

The LC panel connects to the electronics via an elastomeric (rubber-like) contact assembly. It’s a series of fine, parallel wires molded into a block — like encasing a metal comb in rubber then cutting off the back, leaving only the tines. The wires are insulated from each other, but exposed on the contact ends between the panel and the driver printed-circuit board. It doesn’t take a lot of stress to dislodge things.

Thanks for the above comments. I was having the red(pink) screen problem and after I read the above comments, I checked the cable on my desktop. Just one place was loose and I fixed within 2 seconds and every good color is back. Make sure the cable is not loose.

Same problem here. I found that it was the flat cable that plugs into the back of the display. I couldn’t get the display to separate from the lid, so I couldn’t reach the plug to re-seat it. I applied pressure to the lid from the outside where the plug would be, and my display returned to normal. So it really is a case of a loose plug (if you’re as lucky as I was). Thanks to the folks that pointed that out.

Nice and informative post. I have solved my problem by just making little bend (0.3 degree) the pin of the lcd that goes to cpu, it was the fault of on pin which goes free inside the female connector…..

Thanks for the post Piyush, you were spot on and it worked for me.

Cheers
