I am using a totally awesome Dell Inspiron notebook that is a little more than a year old. About a week ago, the right side of the monitor began displaying a vertical GRAY LINE about half an inch wide. It did not go away despite my best efforts. I decided this was not a big deal to me and I would learn to live with it. Today, however, a much smaller but equally noticable greenish-blue line appeared next to it. I have no idea what is going on. Am I in danger of complete monitor disfunction? Can someone help me or tell me whether this will continue (and in what pattern of color)?Have you tried to uninstall/reinstall? Also CHECK the Dell site for upgrades. Good luck!
ASlaterThe same thing happened to my Inspiron LCD after 2+ years of USE. I ended up having to buy a new LCD, because it was at the point where I couldn't make out the display. I tried to find other solutions, but everyone I talked to told me the same thing. The screen was a gonner.

Tolerate it as long as you can, but you may ultimately have to replace it. I replaced mine for $230 (from ebay). Dell will likey charge you 3 times that price if it isn't under warranty anymore.

Good luck!
