Vertical Pink Lines On Laptop Screen !!! Please Help !!!
hi everyone, i recently bought this pc (Acer Aspire 8951G) and after a while of using it some pink stripes started to appear on the screen. First they appeared randomly but now it seems they wont go away. I dont know what the problem is (i'm not so smart when it comes to laptops so forgive me). If i bring it back to the shop they might keep it for a very long time and i dont want that because i really need it for all my school work.
