    Hi,

    I just acquired a 2nd hand Packard Bell Laptop. It doesn't any problems except with a minor problem. Could somebody tell me what the problem is and how can this be fixed. Thanks in advance :)

    The problem seems to be more obvious on white than black.

    Ah I am familiar with that problem. It is a horizontal line with a specific colour which you cannot get rid of it.

    You can try to things: try to move the screen like you would close it and open it. Maybe it will disappear.
    Or you can try to repair the notebook, I think there is a problem with the wires or a problem where the hinges are located.

    Good luck.

    Thanks. I'll have it checked out. So this problem is not related to the backlight at all?

    No, it's not the back light.
