Diagnol lines on the screen while accessing facebook

Original title: virus covers monitor with diagonal lines, windows tool does not find it.

usually happens on Facebook

Hello

It would help if you could upload a screenshot of the screen when you see on the screen diagnol lines.

-What antivirus software you have on your computer?

-What is the brand and model of your computer?

Diagnol lines appear, usually, if we don't have the measurement drivers installed on the computer.

Just to make sure that it is not a problem of display driver, let's check device manager if there is a yellow question mark for display drivers.

1. click Start and type Device Manager in the search start and press ENTER.

2. see if there is a yellow question mark on the graphics cards. If it exists, right-click on the drive and click on Update driver software.

3. If there is no yellow question mark, then right-click on the same driver and click Uninstall.

4. you may be asked to remove the driver software of the computer. Press Yes to continue.

5. once the driver is uninstalled, restart the computer. Windows will automatically try to download and install the display driver for you.

You can also go to the computer manufacturer website and download/install the latest graphics cards and check if the diagnol lines reappear.

  • HP probook 450 G2: flickering horizontal lines on the screen while watching the video after water damage

    Hello

    My father accidentally threw a glass of cola on my computer, on my keyboard. I was able to turn my laptop upside down very quickly and went out of the battery. I then let dry for 24 hours. At first glance the damage seemed limited to my keyboard that I already replaced. Everything else seems to work very well (sound, touchpad, usb ports, hdmi, dvd drive port) until I watched a video. Flickering horizontal lines appeared in the background, which are only slightly visible. Lines do not appear when I'm surfing the internet, playing games, or when I do no matter what other casual stuff. I also don't see any flickering lines when I connect to my laptop to an external display.

    Does anyone have an idea on what the problem might be and what parts can I replace to fix this?

    The unit to boot BIOS and check if you get all the lines. If you don't get all the lines in the BIOS screen,

    then update the BIOS and chipset. But if the problem persists then you must send it to the service.

  • Qosmio G10 has vertical lines on the screen

    I have a G10 which I use for the last 15 months since I bought it.
    However, there are now 4 vertical lines on the screen, 2 Purple (magenta?), 1 yellow and 1 cyan. Other than these lines there are no other problems, it never fell down or something like that.

    The lines are still there, they do not change in any way and are always in the same place. They appear on the screen at first power up, before the Qosmio logo lights up.

    They have not all appear at the same time, they all appeared individually in the past two months. I've seen the last of them disappear briefly, then stay on.

    I guess that my screen is dying slowly, I guess to be an expensive item.

    Any advice thrown my way would be greatly appreciated!

    I took a picture of the screen you will find at:

    Note: the photo was taken with Media Player full screen on a black image, just to clearly show the lines)

    Hello

    I suggest you connect an external display to check if it's a graphics card or a display problem. If cela pipes appears also on the external screen then it could also be a problem with the graphics card.
    If these lines do not appear on the external display while the display of the laptop has a malfunction.
    However, this does not change your situation. I recommend you contact the Toshiba ASP to solve this problem.

  • Qosmio F10: vertical lines on the screen

    I use a Qosmio F10 with a nVIDIA 128 MB graphics card. Recently while I was running a graphics-based application on, my screen started showing me wire colors on the screen. I was able to start the game once more, but found the same problem exist.

    On reboot, the system showed the vertical white lines on the screen to start qosmio, ' *' on the lines of the bios password screen and green on the Windows XP loading screen. I was not able to start Windows. Thinking it would be a problem of S/W, I formatted.

    The problem persists and I can not load Windows XP.
    Can someone tell me what the problem with my laptop?

    Hello

    This sound like a hardware malfunction and I guess it could be something wrong with the graphics card or motherboard :(

    But the vertical lines appear on the external screen? If so, then it must be a matter of Council.
    In this case, you have a lot of possibilities. In my opinion, ask the guy to service for the control of the laptop. The technicians of the service in your country partner could run diagnostics tests and will give you more details about the failure.

    Good luck

  • I asked before but everyone has discovered what causes vertical lines on the screen?

    I have vertical lines on my screen about 6 or 7 and his worst do. They go to various shades of pink, green and yellow. I asked if anyone knew the answer later when there was only 1, and even if other people had this problem no one knew the answer. Has anyone discovered yet because its getting so irritating, I think I need a new machine. Any suggestions gratefully received.

    Rupture of the membranes that make up the screen is what causes the problem.

    Rupture may be caused by indifferent manufacturing, overzealous pressure while cleaning and old age.

    Sometimes the graphics card can go wrong, but they will generally 'very bad', not just some annoying lines on the screen.

    In the end, you will have t get the screen replaced... :-)

    Learn how to reset your iPod - Apple Support  (see iPod with a click wheel)

    do you see this line on the screen when the Apple logo?  If you do, it is probably a hardware problem.  If the line is not there at the start, but returns after the iPod starts, you can do a restore of the iPod using iTunes.  This d erases the IPO, reinstall its software and sets it to the default settings.

  • Satellite M70-339 vertical lines on the screen

    Hello...

    I have a Satellite M70-339, which will show only the vertical lines on the screen.
    I connected an external monitor and booted in safe mode.
    I uninstalled the display drivers.
    I started to monitor and reinstalled the display drivers.
    The computer will now boot up screen.

    I put the display to indicate to both monitor and screen.

    On the monitor, all right.
    On the screen, I get vertical lines color, similar to a wallpaper (wallpaper is not pretty).

    Did anyone has got any ideas what could be the problem, or how to diagnose the problem
    Any help would be appreciated.

    John C

    If everything is OK on the external monitor that is the best evidence that this problem is related to the internal LCD. Display must be exchanged.

  • Qosmio G15: Green vertical lines on the screen

    All started an ordinary day, when I was playing music on my iTunes.
    All of a sudden my screen went black and the music stopped, but my power button is always blue. Since then, whenever I try to start it, it goes on the Qosmio screen and Windows XP screen and plays the startup sound, but there all those green vertical lines on the screen. And then it goes black and tsays in this way.

    I was able to use Windows VGA (whatever that means) with lines all over the screen, but I am not able to start normally. Does anyone have any suggestions or have had the same problem? Please help me!
    I have a Toshiba G15 Windows XP Media Center, but am not able to use it normally.

  • Re: Equium M50-216 - lines across the screen

    Hi my Equium M50-216 has lines across the screen and low who go up and down the screen.
    There is no picture it s just white.

    If I plug it into an external monitor I get a fine display on the monitor is so the screen is defective or something else?
    I think that the inverter is ok because it of bright and not dull.

    See you soon

    I agree with Luke.

    If the image on the external monitor is ok then the graphics card should be ok.
    If an FL inverter would be defective then everything would be visible, but just a little more dark and as behind a fog

    In your case, it looks like a display problem

    I think you should ask a technician for replacement laptop

  • Satellite L830 - horizontal line across the screen

    All new Satellite L830 has a horizontal line across the screen.

    What can be the cause and how can be fixed?

    If the laptop is brand new it back as soon as possible and ask for replacement.
    On this virtual path, it is not easy to say what the problem is here, but it may be related to faulty display, especially if you can see from the first moments when the laptop is turned on.

    Don't try anything. Request a new one. If you can not new, contact the nearest Toshiba service provider and ask for help. They need to exchange the defective part.

  • Satellite Pro M10 - horizontal lines on the screen in different areas

    Hi all

    I hope someone can help.
    My Satellite Pro M10 seems to suffer a display problem where I have horizontal lines on the screen in different areas.
    It would be well for 10 minutes and when the laptop seems to warm up this problem begins, then shortly after
    The laptop would crash and enter in a resolution of 800 x 600 16 colors or sometimes freeze.

    Graphic drivers have been resettled, and even a new installation of Windows XP from the recovery CD does not help.
    A reboot doesn't solve what the same thing happens again and after one minute of use, so I thought it might be a video or cooling problem.
    I changed the video card I had a spare part of my last motherboard hoping this would solve the problems, but the problem persists.
    Perhaps a cooling problem? Or problems of motherboard?
    The motherboard has been replaced twice, hoping that this isn't another mobo problem.

    Any advice would be great.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    I m not 100% sure but to me it looks a bit like an overheating problem
    Maybe the graphics card may not be properly cooled after a certain period of time and that's why these strange horizontal lines appear on the screen.

    I wonder how you were able to replace the graphics chip on the motherboard?  :|
    If I m not wrong not the chip is fixed and the replacement is very easy and difficult

    It of always difficult to say what's maybe wrong without running several diagnostic tests in most cases this problem may be related to the defective chip or motherboard and so the following should be checked

    Sorry, but that's all I can suggest.

    Best regards from my friend

  • Qosmio G30 - white lines on the screen and BSOD

    1. I have a Qosmio G30
    2 operating system Windows XP MCE
    and I have problem "white lines on the screen ' when windows start to load after that I got the"blue screen of death"and restart the computer.
    I try to get back, but unfortunately came with the laptop recovery CD doesn't seem to work...

    Whenever I finished to recover I have "windows loading files" and once this is done, it shows me the so-called "blue screen of death"...

    Hello

    I m afraid. I have bad news for you ;(
    I think you ve you have a problem with the hardware in my eyes, there might be something wrong with the GPU chip.
    The white lines on the screen could be related to a faulty graphics card and get the BSOD error due to a hardware malfunction or software serious questions

    I m sure that the recovery CD does not contain software problems and therefore only the fault of hardware could be the reason for the lines on the screen and the BSOD.

    In my opinion, you should contact the ASP in your country for assistance if all goes well you guarantee is valid.

    Good luck
