Answer» Hello,,have a toshiba tecra S1, suddenly has blothchy SCREEN and some horizontal LINES, can still see EVERYTHING and use it.
I hooked up to external monitor and still has same symptoms, so my question is, Do i just replace the lcd screen? or is it something else?
thanksif you have the same problem on another monitor then it is not the screen, possibly the GPU
ahh ok, I wasnt sure, this is an older laptop, DOUBT i can replace it. Is there anything else I can check?Very un-likley to be able to replace the GPU as it will be embeded on the motherboard. I think it may be time to retier the laptop and get a new one.
There aer people who can replace the GPU but that can be exspensive and will probley cost more than the laptop is worth.

SOUNDS like heat buildup has damaged the gpu , you can try uninstalling the drivers and reinstalling the drivers for the video.
