I have a Toshiba Satellite P25S609. It had a vertical line (about 2 mm wide) all the way from top to bottom on far left of the screen for a while. Lately when the machine starts, half of the screen on the left stays black with interleaving vertical lines on top of it. The vertical lines are about 1 and half inches apart. The black screen usually goes away if I move the screen back and forth slightly. But today things have changed - the (half) black screen together with the vertical lines won't go away any more no matter what I do, and the whole machine becomes useless because of this.
My questions are: Is the LCD dead? or is it because of the cable connecting the LCD and motherboard? I opened up the screen and checked that there's no loose connection.
If the LCD is bad, what's the last thing I could try before trashing the LCD?
