Pavilion laptop - 15-p2465a: line of dead pixels

  • Qosmio G20 - line of dead pixels

    The other night a solid line of dead pixels appeared on the left side of my screen. It just appeared out of nowhere, a yellow solid and thick 1 pixel wide line. Is there something that can be done for this? It can be repaired? I think my computer is still covered by the extended warranty

    Hi Ashley

    Of course, this problem can be repaired, but the question is how ;)
    In my opinion, the defective part must be replaced.

    Try to connect the external monitor to the computer to know what part is malfunctioning.
    If the same line will appear on the second screen, then the GPU (graphics chip) that attaches to the malfunctioning of the Commission, and in this case, the whole Board needs to be replaced.

    But don t worry not about this! As you say the guarantee must be valid and all replacement parts must be done for free.

    This is why don t waste time contact the ASP in your country as soon as possible.

    Good luck

  • Inspiron 17R SE 7720 - funny laptop computer (not dead) pixel LCD

    Hey people, this laptop is less than 4 months old and yesterday began to show strange pixels on the screen (see screenshot of the website of Dell)

    This pixelation presents itself not only on the desktop and in the games, but also in its display of the windows loading screen and also enforcement Dell Pre-boot system assessment. Know me this isn't a driver problem.  (However I've updated the Nvidia drivers).

    These aren't dead pixels as they change or move according to what's displayed.

    If I connect the laptop to an external display via HDMI, there is no pixelation, if I take a screen (screen printing) and look at this screen shot on another PC it is no pixellation there.

  • Portege R600 - black or dead pixels?

    Hi all, have a serious problem with what appears to be suddenly occurring dead on my R600 pixels. See here:

    http://img7.imageshack.us/img7/9523/toshibar600deadpixels.jpg

    It is actually the second time that this has happened. I got the R600 since November 2008, and in March 2009, I had the screen replaced because several lines of pixels black from appearing near the top of the screen.

    Now it's August 2009 and the same thing is happening, but in the lower part of the screen. About two weeks, two thin lines appeared around an inch upward from the bottom of the screen and almost thick strip of black pixels will appear at the bottom of the screen, and also two big spots of black pixels at the bottom left of the screen that appeared last week.

    The kicker is that the authorized after-sales service suggests that the screen is 'damaged' now because of the two tasks, but I tap anywhere on the screen! Because it is considered to be physically damaged, it would be outside the warranty coverage and would cost me $350-$ 700Cdn to replace the screen! I was capable of that escalate to a supervisor at Toshiba Canada and I'm supposed to hear within 2 to 3 business days.

    Needless to say, I'm not impressed; seems almost every quarter, I encounter this problem and now Toshiba can't even fix it for me, even if it is no fault myself.

    (Note: I use this laptop in an office/retail environment;) I protect and treat this unit of $3000Cdn as a baby and never put pressure on the screen. My R600 is either docked or in a case of Zeroshock and during the transport of it, I put it in a bag with padded back.)

    Does anyone else have this problem? Any ideas on how I can solve this problem with Toshiba?

  • Dead Pixel 6s iPhone 16GB

    I got my iPhone at the end of May.

    I had to restore my iPhone and connect it to another computer, because when I tried to transfer my music to a new laptop, he stated that it could not be established with two different iTunes.

    After putting my iPhone in about a week, he now has a pixel on the screen it is on the upper left side, but kind of more in the Middle, not under the name of carrier. There is also a blackish research brand. I don't know if it is also a pixel or something else.

    It is not on a screen protector I've ever had a still.

    On any page of safari or white page on the iPhone, it is clear and hard to miss the black mark and if you look carefully at the tiny pixel.

    I have never dropped my phone and kept in excellent condition.

    Apple will replace my iPhone? I have the Apple Care 1 year warranty.

    The iPhone was bought directly from online from Apple for $1006 site, I didn't buy Apple Care +.

    Will Apple Replace this screen for a price of replacing it for free?

    Thank you

    Dead pixels are covered by the warranty. Take your phone to an Apple Store and they will test it. I had an iPad replaced for free as collateral because of dead pixels.

  • Satellite R630-13D: dead pixels and background noise

    Hello

    I got my Satellite R630-13 t today about a week ago. I noticed that I have about 10 + dead pixels already - why? Is that what I can do to sort or should I send it back? I'm not particularly impressed by this when the laptop is barely served.

    Also, I noticed that when I plug in my headphones there are noise white background if sound is enabled (or not music etc). I thought that this could be low for questionable helmet, but it happened with my two sets (both in decent enough ear phones.

    If anyone has any advice on these issues that would be really appreciated.

    I'm really enjoying this laptop, but these questions and the fan strong enough make me tempted to return it.

    Thank you very much

    Dear Sylvia

    I recommend you contact your local dealer and explain the situation. He may be ready to help and share your laptop with a new one.

Sometimes half display work correctly with vertical lines on the screen half left. Someone if I play the video, then it is fixed in 20-30 min. There also get fixed when I display stand with a certain pressure (where screen and laptop are connected). If I leave the laptop on these lines, the screen comes on for 3-5 seconds and again the vertical lines are displayed. But the display work done after it is fixed. So, what's the problem?

  • Re: Satellite A660 - 12 X - dead pixel on the screen and how to increase the sound?

    Hello 3 days ago (20 July), I bought this laptop and I have 2 questions: I have a dead pixel (red color) on the LCD screen, I tried to use the java applet:
    http://www.JScreenFix.com/applet.php?width=1366&height=768 to remove it, but to no avail. I looked at your table of replacemente lcd but it didn't understand because my resolution was not on it. So my question is: how many pixels I must have because I complain?

    Another question, windows 7 permanently "think" my DVD player is a mountable/no mountable option, which means that I can take it apart like a USB pen... no doubt I am lack of pilots... but I don't know which ones that...

    And another little question: How can I increase my sound on this laptop? I'm a little unhappy with the sound quality, my previous laptop (of the older generation) had a better sound quality...

    Thank you for you time :=)

    To determine the number of pixels, you can use a program like, dead pixel tester.

    Perhaps, you must delete the upper/lower filters:

    > And another small question: How can I increase my sound on this laptop?

    If the sound at high volume settings and it is still not enough, there is nothing to do. of course, you can install the most powerful speakers or use external one. You should try to update a sound card driver, I doubt, however, it helps you to:

    Hello
    I have also this problem such as a freezing of the computer and the notification "driver Nvidia has stopped working". ". It's because of the display driver and we can nothing but just wait when Toshiba will broadcast a new, improved driver.
    That it was a dead pixel, you can read about it here

  • Satellite U500-10z - dead pixel

    I just bought a Toshiba Satellite U500-10z comet.com, and while booting it I saw the brilliant green pixel.
    I had the front stuck pixels, but they were weak, so I lived with them - but it is very bright and causes problems when you look at the movies/i-player.

    I tried the unsticking of pixel programs, massaging him, tapping, pressing, everything - but nothing works.
    I can do, and although I believe need toshiba 8 stuck pixels for a return, the comet will be kinder.

    As well as the stuck pixel, there's a white bright light (think it is backlight problem) or an other pixel stuck.

    Any help/advice is welcome-thanks

    Hello

    I doubt that the ASP will replace the display under warranty.
    I found this FAQ from Toshiba:

    Information about the tolerance of failure of the technology and pixel of the screen for LCD screens
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/TSB9502LZ0000R01.htm

    The sum of dead pixel depends on the resolution of the screen.
    So you will need 8 dead for a replacement using a resolution of 1400 x 1050 pixels.

    But maybe the laptop dealer could replace Notepad ask the guy in the shop!

    You have a very low chance that will replace the screen of laptop computers.

  • Dissatisfied (e) with the support of Toshiba due to dead pixel

    Poetential beware buyers of Toshiba products. Toshiba offers very little support. All they do is try to weasel out of warranty repairs. After owning 14 computers laptop toshiba, for me and my company, I will never spend another dollar with Toshiba.

    I have a custom P750. 10 days after receiving it, the motherboard fried. Instead of offering me a replacement unit, I had to wait several days for a box, mail it to the wide, wait for repairs and wait that they to return. I could not drop off at the local Toshiba repair shop. In fact, I could, but if I did, I would be responsible for the cost of repairs. I've no idea what logic there is for this, but there you go. After this test of three weeks, I finally got my machine.

    Fast forward to this weekend. A pixel is grilled on my screen. My warranty is in 2 weeks. So to start the repair process. I'm amazed when the Lady informs me that Toshiba will not fix it. She says "we don't set the screens I have only pixel dead" and "a pixel does not affect the performance of the machine. Well forgive me, but of course it affects me looking at a black dot on my screen 24/7. I ask to speak to a supervisor, she put me on hold, comes back and tells me that she spoke with a "level 2 technician" who informed her that they wouldn't fix a screen with a pixel died. Again, I ask to speak to a supervisor, so she tells me that I will return a call.

    An hour later, I get a call back from a "supervisor" who tells me that they will not set a screen with a dead pixel. I'm trying to explain to him, that pixel is the defective screen, and I want to fix under warranty. If I sell this machine, and someone asks me "Is there dead pixels?", I have to say Yes and lose money in the process. He still tells me "we don't set the screens for a pixel dead." While I try to explain which guarantees one is, he cuts me and told me he spoke with someone, and they determined that pixel is the result of physical damage and therefore not covered at all. ?!?!?

    Hi Poman

    You know it's not easy to say anything on this subject because you're crazy enough now and I don t know if we discuss your problems on reasonable means.
    I understand you and I think that I wouldn't be happy when my dear P500 Satellite had too dead pixel. As you already say it is very annoying to see it 24/7 on the screen.

    Anyway, as you probably know support must follow certain rules and it's very sad if you have contacts with eager people. Please don t understand me wrong but perhaps your behavior on the phone was quite aggressive and on the other side people were completely non-professional.

    In any case, this dead pixel problem is defined and how it works, you will find on the document from Toshiba:
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/TSB9502LZ0000R02.htm

    Below, you can find info on the other hand secured claim.

    For 10 years I use Toshiba notebooks only and I can't tell how it works with other manufacturers but I n t think Sony or Samsung will give you new notebook due to pixel of a death. Maybe I'm wrong, but I don t think so.

    Bye and good luck

  • Satellite 5100 - Question about dead pixels. Is - this really dead pixel problem?

    Hello

    I've got Satellite 5100 603. There was a few pixels on the display. I don't know what is really dead pixel problem or not because the black area appears to be behind the screen. When I move the left and right sides, the black area move too much left and right (as if the black box is behind the pixels of the screen)! And I can say that all the pixels work OK when watching from the sides right and left of the screen (because the pixels that appears to be dead, changes in search of different angles).

    Are there really dead pixels or is it another problem?
    Can I do about it?

    FYI, I use my laptop for 2,5 years and there is no guarantee of course...

    Thanks for any help...

    Hello

    Because of your description, it is not easy to give you a proper answer. On my old laptop, I had two dead pixels and it was easy to see the boot process. At the beginning, you can see home screen Toshiba and dead pixels are usually green (the background is black).

    Sorry but there is nothing to do. You have to live with it because the display is very expensive.

    Currently, in the same area, dead pixels have spread to a length of 5 mm. It extends. There are three or four more white spots on the screen and an another couple dead pixels in another area.

    Laughing out loud

    LCD screens are not considered CRUs (CRUS by) and can only be exchanged by a technician or service center on site if your computer has a warranty on the spot.

    FWIW, I sent hundreds of ThinkPads to the filing of these past ten years and have never had a single one damaged.

    YMMV.
