Latitude E6400, dark on only the lower part of the screen

I have a user who showed me their laptop today.

It's dark on just the lower part of the screen, and it reminded me one brilliant several projectors upward, with waves of light and dark.

Anyone see this before?

I am open to advice, troubleshooting, because I am a novice on the resolution of the laptop screens.

I'm reading articles online, so any information is greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

If the system has a LED backlight (which is what it sounds), part of the panoply of LED does not - you will need to replace the screen.

  • Satellite P105-S9722 - small dark spot on the screen

    Hello

    A few days there is a 1 cm x 2 cm and a few small black/transparent stained areas appeared on my screen (17 inch WXGA TrueBrite). It's the visibility varies depending on the angle of the lid and disappears almost when it's 90 degrees or if I look at the top (it turns slightly whitish).

    I wonder if anyone had the same problem or knows what it is caused by. My laptop is still under warranty (6 months). I don't remember that the screen has been pressed or anything.

    Thanks for any advice.

    Hello

    If you encounter these problems/errors and you still have warranty then the only choice would be (in my humble OPINION for me :)) for sending the machine to the ASP for a hardwarecheckup.
    Use your warranty rather than wait until your machine drops the line ;)

    Here´s a link to an index of ASP to find the next (and closest) authorized service partner.

  • Latitude E6400 Inverter card

    I recently ordered a replacement screen for a Latitude E6400, when I disassembled the laptop to swap the new screen, the connector that goes to the display inverter plug is different.

    I have to tell the seller what card inverter specification I need, but I have problems finding the specs.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Your best bet is to ask the supplier of the screen - inverters are specific to the screen.

  • How to know if Max Rez the screen is Active in R31?

    Greetings!

    I have a Thinkpad R31 with a HD 20gig once containing a corrupted version of XP and now running with XFCE of Maya 13 Mint and Linux Porteus 3.1 versions on it. In Linux, a few background images and compared to the viewers the image show this Rainbow halo effect sometimes found when high resolution images are projected in low resolution on other machines. I have no way of knowing if the original XP rendered better images because he was a native of the machine and therefore typed all the powers of his graphics card. Screen resolution indicators or controls in the two John. Is it possible for me to know if my screen R31 is fully returned to the graphics card Linux max capacity? At the very least, is there a command line to query the computer which resolution mode, it's in?

    According to this:
    http://www.ThinkWiki.org/wiki/category:R31

    The A31 has only the screens of resolution 1024 x 768.

    According to your output xrandr, you run to the native resolution of 1024 x 768.

    It is possible that your image viewer (and all that is manipulation of screen) are downsampling bad image.

  • How can I change the brightness of the screen?

    Ok. Here's my question. I have a Windows Vista Home Premium laptop. Whenever the charger cable is in it, it becomes more clear. And when I take the screen gets darker. I went to the windows Help Center and they don't tell me nothing. Please please, please answer this question because of this problem, it is more difficult to read on the screen and much more.

    Sincerely,.

    The screen options brightening when on battery (when it is normally darker in order to preserve the battery life) are in your power management control panel applet. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

  • Computer does not turn on the screens during startup, they remain turned off

    When my computer starts windows 7, my 2 attached screens, which work perfectly well, not to get turned on.

    Thecomputer starts normally, only the screens remain unused.

    I can connect to my account and [alt] + [F4] to turn it off again.

    The only thing I could imagine being responsible for this is the last card grafics driver I just updated. It's a GeForce GTX670.

  • The latitude E6400 LCD is dim/dark

    I have a Latitude E6400 with Vista. When I boot, I see the bios and the running of State Bar. as soon as it starts at the window, the screen goes black/sun. I can still see, but it is very very light. It doesn't matter if it is on battery or AC is fine when I plug in an external display. I tried key fn and arrow making, but which was useless. could the backlit feature on the LCD is dead? any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I am facing exactly the same problem with my computer laptop studio 1555. My research on line up to tell me that this is very probably the inverter which is bad.

    The fact that it has very low picture indicates that the screen is probably ok.

    A possible culprit is the hinge switch that turn off the screen when folded down. If this does not work when you lower and open on the external screen, my guess is that the switch is probably ok.

    The third possibility is the backlight ccfl lamp. What I generally find people reporting is that the screen begins to turn red before the ccfl lamp turns off. If we do not face that then the lamp should probably be ok.

    I'll order a new card of the inverter and replace it and pray with my fingers crossed.

  • HP envy 4500: upper part scanning but the lower part of the older scan

    Hello

    I need an explanation of what could of happened to cause this problem.

    I've scanned 4 cheques, but only the upper part of the cheques would be real, the lower part was released as a previous check scanned.

    So basically all 4 cheques are the same except for the date and sequence number which was the upper part.

    That's happened? I'm so confused.

    Thanks in advance

    Hi sandra_s,

    You are welcome!

    Yes, most likely a connection problem, or a driver conflict. One of the two could be the cause of the software behaves the way that you describe.

  • My screen is so dark, that I see only the icons by using a flashlight!

    When my mother started her cell phone this morning, the screen came very dark and I can hardly do anything on the screen.  I tested with different settings and colors and brightness change, but not physically, I can't see anything without using a flashlight.  It's as if the backlight went dim or something.

    She uses a Dell Inspiron with Windows Vista.  I'm not aware of any other characteristic that is not my computer.    Please do not hesitate to ask questions and I will do my best to answer or find the answers.

    Please help make my life easier and help me fix his computer.

    I think that you have diagnosed the problem yourself. It's the backlight or the inverter failed. You can check if the cables are loose and you will need to make to a repair shop to get the extract. The only practical way to check is to Exchange in well known components until the problem is located.

    Here is part of a Dell Inspiron manual that shows the wiring:

  • I have an event soon wishing prints 4 x 6 given to participants who has a logo provided in one corner and my title generated through the lower part of the rest of the impression. I was able to save the logo and title separately in the identity plate, but

    I soon got an event that wants only the 4 x 6 prints given to participants at the event with a box of logo provided in one corner and my title generated through the lower part of the rest of the impression. At this point, I have both registered in the identity of the Lightroom print module plate and tried to get them in place on a model. He wants me to place one or the other on the model in the picture, but not both (which I need). How can I get both on a template and then save this model so I can just pull up and start shooting prints during the event? I'm not WiFi devices yet so I intend import to Lightroom from the SD through my Macbook card and then wired to an Epson photo printer. Test prints I have the air out well with the box logo or title across the lower part, but I really need both on prints for my client. Thank you.

    Why not use watermark custom logo and him custom identity plate for the title in the LR print module? You also have the option to add the title at the bottom of the image using 'Photo Info' selection "Custom Text". After installation, you can save this as a new model. Unless I'm missing something, it should do the job.
