Hi, I have an Advent 7082 laptop which I got last Christmas; recently I’ve had a screen problem with, however it has run out of guarantee! Typical!
Basically the screen has picture has gone, however is you bend the top in a certain position it works perfectly as if there were nothing wrong (however this means to use the laptop you need two pairs of hands - which I obviously haven’t got!) when you let go of the screen the picture just fades out/freezes.
I took it to be looked at and he said I needed a new screen. I wondered if anyone else has experienced a similar problem?
Also some advice on buying a new screen: the screen size is 15.4" - do I just need to buy a screen the right size or does it have to be a specific model? Also some screens have 30 pin connectors etc? How to a find out what screen connection my laptop has? Any advice would be greatly appreciated...
