Display Loose? D250

Every once in a while when I'm using my netbook, all of a sudden the Display cuts in and out. I have to move the display back and forth to receive a picture again. Also, there's a lot of flashing with the screen cutting in and out. Has anyone had these problems before, and does anyone have a solution.

Your help is appreciated.

 

Hi there,

It sounds very much like your connection from the base of the netbook to the monitor is working it's way loose.
Normally these are a strip connector that is held in by a small piece of plastic and a sharp knock can loosen that out.

If you are still under warranty then I would send it back to be repaired, as the alternative it to take the case apart and look for any loose wires and make sure everything is tight inside.

I don't think it is a hardware problem as you would not be likely to get the picture back up if it was.

Hope that helps??

I have the exact same problem with my d250. If you open a close a bunch of times it actually improves not worsens. Then it comes back. Like the switch is oxidized or something and needs to be worked. Doesn't sound like loose connection. :?
