    Hey all,
    I have Dell XPS M170 with Nvidia Go6800 Ultra card. I am having vertical lines appearing on my LCD. (see Pic) I have verified it is not the graphics card by hooking up the DVI port to an external monitor. So, I believe it is an LCD issue. My question is: can you use a WUXGA screen from the M1710 as a replacement for the M170 screen, or, should I just send it to Dell and have them fix it? (no longer under warranty)
