    I got my Y410p with the black friday sales last year, It worked perfectly fine, except for a few wonky drivers until the screen started acting up. There was a strange white line, only visible on the screen itself, so if i would have taken a screenshot, it wouldn't be there. This line would grow a bit day by day, until one day, the entire screen was completely white, i plugged it into an external screen and everything was still in place.
    I open up the laptop, carefully and with instructions, to check if it wasn't a loose cable, it wasn't.
    I then order the correct screen online and replace it, but, when i turned the computer on, the screen was, and still is, divided into 4 sections, all showing the exact same thing. The "display" on the top-left is the more "normal" one even if everything is tiny, the one below has a bit of the taskbar cut-off and is slightly pulsing yellow, the two on the right are pulsing horribly between yellow and normal color and to top it off, there is a line made up of alternating vertical lines going through the middle of the screen.
    I don't know if it could be a graphics card problem, or the new screen bugging out.
    Any help is appreciated:thumbsup:
