Hiya,

I have a short quesion, I have had my Acer since new (about 2 years), not having any problems with it whatsoever, until recently, when it decided that upon displaying dark (black, grey etc) background it will intermittently flash white vertical lines across the screen.

Since it is out of warranty I have had it looked up by a repair company, which have said it was the screen connection cables that were at fault. That helped the problem for about a month, after which it reappered.

I have repeated the process then - the company replaced the connections, but this time it didn't help at all.

As this is happeneing randomly I am now asking, what could be the casue of such a fault,, if anyone has any idea. If there are any questions I will respond to the best of my knowledge.

I have made a short video that shows exactly what happens

Cheers for any help.

Is the same thing happening with an external monitor? Could be just your LCD.

cheers ...

Well, it's not doing that with an external monitor, although the company I had it with said they have tested the LCD and had no problems with it, besides the external connections, it there any other way to test whether that is indeed the problem?

If it is not doing that (at all) with the external, you can be safe to point the issue down to a failing LCD, since you already had the cable replaced.

cheers ...
