Screen Issue

[Lovejoy96]

Hi guys, had my UltraNotice 15.6 inch for around 2 months now and the left side of the screen has gone funny. Here is a picture; not sure if it's a driver issue or something is wrong with the screen. Any assistant would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks all.

Am I missing something or are you referring to something that isn't showing on the screenshot? If so it's something to do with the screen rather than the graphics card.

Yeah, looks fine to me But I might just not have seen the problem you're trying to point out.

Woops, stupidly enough I didn't check on another device haha - will update later on but that means it's definitely a screen issue which is annoying!

What's the issue? blurry or lines?

Just got back and booted up the PC and all seems to be fine at the moment. It was pinky/stripy lines. Does this mean it could be a driver issue as it's not constant? Also, it was only on the left side of the screen not the whole screen.


Thanks

**UPDATED**

It's re-occuring again, this time when I specifically run a movie.

If it's not showing up on screenshots then it's not driver related, but with the physical screen. It's possible it's stuck pixels, if so it's worth running something like this:

I've never used it myself but looks like it's had good general reviews.

Thought i'd provide a quick video clip to give you a better understanding. Pretty sure it isn't any dead pixels or anything (and that application costs to use also)

Should be working now - Apologies

Yep, got it. See what you mean, it's almost more like a loose connection in the ribbon of the monitor... do you feel comfortable having a look at it? If not, I'd send it back to PCS for an RMA

SpyderTracks - You're famous!!!

As its the ribbon, you could take a look to see if its immediately accessible and if confident (as Spyder recommended) have a go at ensuring its properly seated. If it doesn't look all that simple I'd get in touch with PCS to either ask them to do it (RMA) or ask how to do it yourself and they will be able to talk you through it. You can point them to this thread too (or at least your youtube video) which might help them to understand the problem.

I'd phone for the speediest response

Quoi? In my mind I always have been but that's never been shared with others until now, pray embellish?

Thanks alot for the response folks. Will get in touch with PCS.
