Did I get a bad screen or something?

I recently returned my 3000 n100 because of a broken mouse, and received a replacement notebook of the same type. I am just nervous that I got a worse screen on this one.

Imagine what it looks like when a camera is taping a computer screen or you see one on tv. It has those little lines that kinda go up and down. My laptop screen does that very subtely, and it is driving me crazy. Its nothing big and bold, and it only shows up at some times, but it is annying me.

Is there something wrong with it or is this normal? I don't remember it on the last one but then again, I only had it for a couple of days.

 

A LCD screen should never do that on it's own. They usually don't even do that when viewed on tv either... Sounds like you got a messed up screen...

 

Does anyone else know? I really need some insight on this. It has already been returned once and I dont want to do it again unless I have to. If it is messed up, regardless of how much it anoys me, I would like to return it though.

It may be that I am doing a poor job of describing the problem though but that is the best way I can thik to describe it. Little static looking lines that travel down the screen and dissapear followed by more static looking lines. Most of the time noticable out of the corner of my sight, when examined closesly the weaker ones will sometimes dissapear.

 

It could be your screen refreshing. That's how CRT screens refresh by having horizontal lines going through the screen. How about setting your refresh rate to higher rate may solve it. It may be set too low. If you are seeing the lines when viewing through a camera that's fine but to the naked eye they shouldn't be visible.

 

I dont think LCD panel should have those effects.
