So i left my laptop on overnight and this morning i start using it and i notice a magenta line on the screen. It's a about 1 pixel wide line of stuck pixels and it runs all the way from the top to the bottom. The laptop is a HP 6125x, if that makes a difference. I've looked around a little bit and tried some stuff, but nothing has worked yet. Anyone have any ideas?

warranty is done

 

Reboot yet?

 

yeah, no go.

I've tried running a pixel flasher and massaging the screen on the line...

 

try shutting it down?

I leave my laptop on over night all the time, never happened to me :hs:

if it is all the way up and down.. are you still under warranty? because that has to be more than 7 or 11 pixels h:

 

I think he already answered that h:

 

I only read the first 2 sentences




I'd try punching it.. or flick

 

I feel like there is something on the net that I read to fix that...but alas I can't remember.

try that?

 

if rebooting doesnt help, connect it to an external monitor, if the line is still there, your vid card is toast, if its not, then theres something funky with the lcd

 

LCD is fucked.

RMA time.
