If you have any new info regarding this issue I would be very grateful for any help :) Hi,

I have exactly the same problem with my Dell Latitude D610 witch I’m restoring from water damage. The water got inside the LCD screen and damaged one of the layers inside the screen. The white sheet-background had some water marks. The screen itself was working fine, but the liquid stains on the background were very noticeable. So I completely disassembled the LCD screen and replaced the background. After assembly I noticed that I have a couple of brighter areas. Not sure if I had it before because I was paying attention only to the damaged area. Minek,

I have Toshiba Satellite L10-119. I decided to put WiFi antenna behind the LCD screen. Finally it didn't work well so I removed it from there. Since I assembled my laptop back together again I noticed (but I am not 100% sure that the issue started from this moment - rather 95%;) 2 brighter areas on my LCD. These are not stuck pixels as screen works fine there but they are just brighter areas (especially visible on bright background e.g. Word). I was very gentle when I disassembled my notebook and I don't remember hitting or pressing the LCD on the back. I've read somewhere that this may be a matter of foil that reflects light from the backlight lamps. Is there any way to repair it? In any other way the LCD is OK but this is pretty annoying. Thanks in advance. Hi,

I dissassembled the notebook to clean the heatsink, and when i reassembled it the screen was about 13 inches and 4:3 ratio. The image was not centered in the screen but it starts in the top left corner. It doesnt matter if its in post, windows or linux its always like that. Its as if the LCD thinks its a 4:3 and tells the computer as much. Its a perfect image with no garbled lines. I wonder if static damaged the chip so it thinks its a different resolution. --------------- | * | | * | | * | |**********___| This is a repesentation of what the screen looks like with the starred area the working image.
