Acer Aspire 5630 Laptop screen/display problem
Got the above laptop and it's just developed a problem with the
screen/display - there's a 65mm column at the right-hand side of the display that's gone dark. Applications open up properly and you can see the whole width of the app, but it doesn't go the whole width of the screen - sort of full display but not full screen if you see what I mean. Also, don't know if it's relevant or not but the taskbar at the bottom seems to be twice as tall as normal and isn't drag-able back to it's usual size - cursor also distorts in this area. I'm not explaining it very well, so have a look at this photo: http://s137.photobucket.com/albums/q...nt=laptop1.jpg At first I thought it may be a display driver issue but I've uninstalled and reinstalled without success. I've also used a program called #1-TuffTest Pro (http://www.tufftest.com/ttp01.htm) that is self-booting, operating system independent and never goes anywhere near Windows, but shows the same results, so I would say that that rules out any Windows driver issues. Picture of that test he http://s137.photobucket.com/albums/q...nt=laptop2.jpg Any ideas what's wrong and how to fix it? TIA, Pete |
