July 27, 201015 yr Ever sense the cord on my laptop wore out (HP wants $200 for a new cord), I have been using my sisters old laptop, which at some point in time got stepped on/dropped/something. This leads to the screen flickering. the right ~1.5 inches of the screen are entirely white and ~3 inches in the middle flicker between white+the display. Any ideas on how to fix this that are cheaper then buying an external monitor?

July 27, 201015 yr $200? You can easily get a replacement power cord from places like Futureshop for half that price. Not sure about the display but I think the laptop would have to be replaced or sent in for repairs. Pyramid Plunder Guide Tip.it Forum Rules Adventurer's LogThanks to Cowboy14 for the awesome sig!

Not sure about the display but I think the laptop would have to be replaced or sent in for repairs.the laptop with the messed up cord is ~8 years old, I'd rather just save that money for a new laptop.This one is ~2 years old and I already looked into sending it for repairs, the local place isn't certified to do it and sending it in would cost more then an external monitor on the shipping alone <.< DK drops (solo/LS): 66 hatchets, 14 archer rings, 13 berserker rings, 17 warrior rings, 12 seerculls, 13 mud staves, 7 seers ringsQBD drops: 1 kite, 2 visages, 4 dragonbone kits, 3 effigies, lots of crossbow partsCR vs. CLS threads always turn into discussions about penis size....It's not called a Compensation Longsword for nothing.I've sent a 12k combat mission to have Aiel assassinated (poor bastard isn't even Pincers-tier difficulty).
July 28, 201015 yr same thing happened to an old inspiron my dad had- he took it to a local shop and the guy said it was the ribbon inside that caused the problem. the guy offered to do it for a measly $40 but my father decided not to take him up on it.

July 28, 201015 yr That happened to my laptop (the one I'm on now). It kept getting worse until finally the screen broke. So I would recommend taking it to a good repair shop and get it fixed. Probably not as cheap as an external monitor though. If you click on them they hatch or grow up faster and look awesomer!!!87.5% of all statistics are made up on the spot. If you're one of the 42% of statistics that doesn't, copy and paste this into your sig. In addition, 126.324% of the previous statement does not make sense.
