There is a straight white line appearing on my laptop screen. It runs across from one end to the other. It suddenly started appearing.
Does one here know the possible cause of this and how it could be fixed.
Many thanks in advance.

Likely LCD.
plugin a desktop monitor cable into laptop, if it displays good picture then the system board is OK.
detach LCD, and use another complete set of LCD.
replace inverter and test, if it still has same problem, then replace LCD.
good luck.

Kurt,
This is usually caused by some sort of pressure that was applied to the laptop screen. I believe it's called tab seperation and it causes vertical or horizontal lines on LCD screens.
You will have to replace the screen to rid of the lines. A good place to look is http://www.screentekinc.com

my friend got that because someone closed a pen in her laptop and ended up having to get a new screen-- hopefully its something else for you-- but there was no way to fix this problem so like i said hopefully its something else
