Thinkpad R31 LCD screen

My LCD is flashing. If I bend/wigggle it the flicker disappears. No idea what can be the reason?

(a) Loose or LCD cable damaged.

(b) Panel itself is bad.

  • Two vertical lines on my LCD screen

    Please, help me...

    Two vertical lines about 2 inches, width is one black and one white.

    They appear on my lcd screen in the middle of the left since the start. Always in the same position.

    Later, when the desktop appears, we the black remains black and a white becames an occasional color (or a combination of several mobile colors).

    I tried to use an external monitor, and I didn't have the problem.

    I tried with 'doctor test' PC hardware, but all the tests have been adopted.

    I would understand if the problem is the video driver, the LCD, the joint between the GPU and the motherboard, or the lcd. If the GPU is the problem, can I replace it without changing the motherboard or not?

    My PC is Thinkpad R60 9461-DXG and he is 2 years old.

    My BIOS version is 7CETD2WW (2.22)

    My OS is Windows XP pro SP3.

    My GPU is ATI Radeon X 1400

    My version of the video driver is 8.442.3.0 03/01/2008

    You can try replacing the cable of the screen first, then if that doesn't work the LCD.

    The manual on how to do these replacement is here.

  • Satellite PRO U500 - LCD screen size is reduced

    Hi all,

    I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro U500 with one small problem, the size of the LCD screen is reduced. I have a white border to the right and down. The max resolution is 1024 x 768.
    The problem is visible also when I enter the BIOS, so I think that the problem is not Operting System drivers.
    Is there a solution to my problem? I have to send in the audience?

    Thank you for the help

    It is really strange, especially if you see the same thing in the BIOS settings?
    Since when did you notice this behavior?
    Do you use pre-installed OS original you got with your laptop?

    Have you done something that may be responsible for the issue described?

    I U500 and default display resolution is 1280 X 800 t, so I understand why you have 1024 X 768 on your U500.

  • Re: Satellite M300 - should I replace a damaged LCD screen?

    My LCD screen is damaged and almost impossible to use. The laptop is still under warranty, but I understand screen damage are not covered. I don't know even how it happened. I'm not aware of any bump or impact to the unit.

    It is better to spend the money to replace the screen or it would be cheaper to buy a new computer? It is a spare computer that is only used if I am away from giant, holidays, at hospital etc.

    That the cost would be about, in Australian dollars?

    Thank you

    Hi warrawillah,

    I think that it of difficult to tell if you need to replace the screen or buy a new computer. In my opinion it s based on the price of the new view.

    You need to contact a service provider authorized in your country. Guys can order all spare parts and if you want to replace it also.

    Good luck!!!

  • LCD screen turns off without reason - Satellite M40X

    I have a problem with my laptop Satellite M40X, I work when the LCD turn off and I hear two PIF. To turn on the LCD screen I need to restart the laptop, but the problem persists after a few minutes.

    Can someone help me, please.

    Hello

    Here you can compare the version of the BIOS installed on the laptop with the one published on the page of the Toshiba driver.
    If you use the older BIOS, you can try to update. Maybe the update will sort this strange behavior.

    But there could also be a hardware malfunction if the BIOS update does not help.

  • Portege R100 video cable does not reach the replacement LCD screen

    Hi guys, I have replaced the LCD screen of my Toshiba R100, than they had in it was defective. It seemed that it was a replacement at some point however. In any case, I received my new screen, but does not reach the video cable to the top of the circuit of LCD screens. How am I meant to connect it to the screen? Is there an extension cable or what? The screen they had in there previously looked like they were welded copper wires about 8 digitizer.

    Here are 2 pictures of what I mean

    Hello

    Where did you buy this screen?
    Are you sure that it is perfectly compatible with your laptop protected R100 to 100%?

    Looks like it s not fully compatible
    However, if an extra cable is necessary you can get it from the Toshiba ASP in your country.

    In your case, I recommend you contact the guy and ask for compatible cable!

  • Satellite 5100 - LCD screen no longer lights

    Hi, I hope someone will help me on this problem.

    After disassembly of the top satellite covers the lcd screen that does more, but I guess the system is working properly because I can hear windows access "jingle". I think that I reconnected it all cables (green and white connectors for the video card), but I'm not sure thin brown/white/black cable of the lcd screen. That's all

    Hi stefano88,

    Why you have disassembled the LCD?

    To be honest I n don't know cables, you want to say you also plugged the UPS FL for LCD display? This is necessary because FL inverter controls the backlight of your screen.

    Can post you a photo of the cables you want to say?

  • Satellite Pro U300 - the broken LCD screen

    Hi all

    My first post please bare with me.

    I have a Satellite Pro U300, who has a broken LCD screen.
    I have a replacement screen, but not sure how to go abouts it change places.

    Someone at - it a service manual for this model or the tricks and tips on how to disassemble the unit to swap the LCD broke with a new one?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    The service manual can be downloaded. It s not for the public and it s only for Toshiba and approved providers available I think.
    On the Toshiba site, you can download the user manual, but I doubt it would be useful for you.

    I think the best way would be if you go to an authorized service provider. The exchange of the LCD is a little tricky and you should have experience with this.
    On the Toshiba site, you can search for an ASP. I m sure that the technicians will help you. ;)

  • Tecra 9000 - no display on the LCD screen when you turn on

    I recently got a Tecra 9000 for cheap on eBay. I am experienced with the construction and repair of computers, but not so with laptops.

    The problem with this laptop, it's that do not display on the LCD screen when you turn on. It was just black, no backlight, nothing. I took the laptop all share, found no obvious problem. I had to turn it on and the screen lights up a few times trying to figure out the problem. Would it be a bad connection? Or something else?

    After getting it to start work, I'll try to start to put it back together and it stopped working again. I haven't not been able to reduce it to know if it's a bad connection or a card problem.

    Someone at - it suggestions? This is a problem for others here?

    As you describe the issue, I think it is somehow a bad connection or a damaged cable, because it does not work once you have disassembled the screen.
    Maybe you need to check all the cables, leading motherboard to the LCD and take a close look, maybe for a few scratches or strong curvature.

  • Bad monitor or LCD screen cable on Qosmio X 505?

    Looking for a little help to solve my problem.

    About six months ago my web cam log if I moved the monitor back or front. A month or two later the monitor should fade a bit. I have to move the monitor to restore its brightness. The monitor will now completely black if moved. I have to close it and open the lid (monitor) completely so that he could appear at the back and it still does not work the first time... I am running an external monitor via HDMI to avoid the problem... I really need to this address.

    This sounds like a cable of the LCD screen or a monitor problem? Looking at what part to replace everything first.

    Thank you for your time.

    You know very well that this virtual path no one can say with certainty what the problem and this question must be verified correctly.
    I put t know why you don t tell us what model of laptop you have.

    Anyway, if you have the new Qosmio notebook with valid warranty I recommend to contact the nearest Toshiba service provider and let them solve this problem. Warranty will cover all costs.

  • Satellite A100 - display balack after replacing the LCD screen

    Hello

    So I'm trying to fix a LCD on a Satellite A100. The girl I am set as said she accidentally hit the screen with his hand and became black.

    When you turn on the laptop I can here windows activate, nothing is on the LCD screen. It is not the backlight, because I don't see anything on the screen at all. So I bought a replacement LCD screen and that one does not work either. Same question

    I think it is the inverter, any suggestions?

    Could be the sensor cover?

    Thank you! Kyle

    Hi Kyle,.

    Did you buy this new LCD screen to a service provider authorized? I ask this question because it would be interesting to know if it s a Toshiba valid a party or 3rd party a spare.

    Did you check the connection of the LCD cable? There may be a link to lose or the cable itself is touched.
    Theoretically, it might be the FL inverter too, but I doubt that. Otherwise, you'd see something on the screen but very dark.

  • LCD screen moves on my laptop satellite

    Hello!

    LCD screen of my laptop is moving! It looks like its not glued to the screen!
    His works always fine, but it's a little boring.
    I just discovered it a few days ago and worried. Is there something I can do?

    Thank you!

    Hello

    This issue is not known to me, but it certainly isn't usual display behavior. You can try to check on an external screen to see if there is the same situation. If the external monitor everything works fine, I imagine that the LCD monitor may be defective.

    Make sure you also all the display settings are right (resolution and color quality).
