    Hi

    I'd like to know if just my laptops screen is wrecked or migth there be another problem.

    I have ASUS X50SL

    This one:

    http://www.hinnavaatlus.ee/products/Arvutiriistvara/93956/93956/93956/93956/93956/93956

    with Vista

    While working, my laptops screen turned to horizontal rainbow lines and then turned off (the lines have happened before, for a fraction of a second but not the screen turning off) and my computer rebooted.

    Also, sometimes I have 2 short beeps at startup.

    Thereafter my computers screen doesn't turn on. An external monitor works but my laptop always rebooted after windows screen (and windows screen had horizontal blue stripes on it, whats that about?). Safe mode worked.

    So I reinstalled windows. Now the laptop works with external monitor but laptops screen doesn't work. Also, when starting up, I still have blue vertical stripes at the windows startup screen.

    Is it just my screens problem, would changing it solve it? Or is it sth deeper?

    Please help.
