    I got a problem with my display: when I open my lapton a F**** line is there to annoy me just above the taskbar, I think it's the cable that runs in the right hinge of my laptop cause when I move it for a while it just dissappears until I touch it again, what coud you recommend me to do?

    Remove the panel with the power button and try reseating the cable there but if that does not work it means that your LCD is dying. I had the same thing happening to me and it just got worse over time with more lines appearing as time went by...

    Lol. If it dies you can always replace it with another wsxga panel or upgrade to wuxga for less than $100. If it's still under warranty just send it to them.

    Ayle, a bit of offtopic but do WUXGA panels really work in FL90?
