T42p 2373-GVU Screen Brghteness

#1 Post by coreduo » Fri May 15, 2009 12:06 pm

Hi there
There is a brighter light almost like a whiter background that runs along the taskbar at the
bottom of the screen. My guess is that the backlight maybe going? Is it fixable without
replacing the cfl

Thankyou

Has it always been like this? Should be just light leak where the CCF is not aligned with the light pipe perfectly.

Hi there
Your probably right...I bought used on ebay and the seller
neglected to tell me that little tidbit.

It's not that distracting...

Thanxs
