    hi guys! i have a zd7360 and it served me quite good until now!
    recently a cyan vertical line showed up right in the middle of the screen!
    i have the suscpision that its a burned pixel pile( not sure).
    anyway two days ago another line showed up at the left and i am prety concserned that it going towards to total burning down!

    does any of you guys ever faced such a problem? is it fixable?

    Seems like dead pixels. Contact HP, they should replace the LCD atleast if not the notebook. Is it still under warranty?

    Yeah same with me...my CD/DVD drive started being lame after the warranty period.

    Well I would still call HP, when I called them after the warranty period, they didnt even ask about the warranty, just told me to send it the notebook in with the case number :).

    Try calling them.
