Laptop screen turning pink


Question Posted Friday January 29 2010, 8:06 pm

Iv'e got a Dell labtop it was ordered off of Dell's website back in 2008 and since then it's fallen apart parts have fallen off & there's wires exposed the screen is detaching sort of the only thing that is holding the screen in place is the wires..i can't go into exact detail of how it's broken since it's complicated...

Well iv'e noticed that the screen turns pink sometimes a little & other times the whole screen
if i turn the labtop a certain way it's gone

My question is why is the screen turning pink?

The warranty on the labtop is expired & calling
Dell wouldn't help...

Hi there,

Sounds like it is time for a new laptop. :-( Sadly once the actual chassis of the computer is broken it is more cost effective to replace the laptop than it is to repair it.

The screen is turning pink because either the signal cable which runs betwee the bottom part of the laptop and the too section or screen part has been damaged, or the actual LCD panel (screen) has been damaged by being twisted/stepped on/dropped/etc.

You can plug in a desktop monitor and use it there until the rest of the computer fails if you wish, but if you can, it is time to buy a new one.
