Hi All, I was using my G10 with no problems, when all of a sudden the screen displayed red vertical lines and my laptop subsequently crashed. Any time I start back up in XP Pro the screen looks really weird and it's not long before it...

I've been workiing away on my 9860 since Christmas with no worries. Today for some unknown reason the AC Power Adapter packed up. I checked that it wasn't the plug end of things by trying different leads but no joy. The AC Power Adapter...
