Satellite A100 LCD screen problems

Hello,

I am noticing something with my Satellite A100-237 screen. The bottom left and right corners seem darker than the rest of the display. I'm not sure why this happened and I've only had the laptop for 3 months! Does anyone has similar problems? Does this mean my LCD is ruined? This has only started to happen recently and the top corners are fine.

I need someone's advice on what the problem may be and if this is a normal thing or if I should get it fixed under warranty?

Thanks.

 

Do you see this effect only on darker backgrounds? If it is so, it's normal light leakage.

 

No, actually it's clearer on light backgrounds. It's a darkening of the bottom corners for some reason, the right one more than the left. I think something happened to the screen but i'm not sure what it is, so I'm wondering if someone can shed some light.

Thanks.

 

That is normal. Well not toaly normal. I have noticed that some models, especially the M45 will do this. It just depends on the LCD model/manfacture. If you push Toshiba really hard they may replace it for you, but its unlikely.

 

So it's a design flaw, not something I did? I was wondering because I treat my laptop pretty well generally . I don't think it's a big deal but I might want to get it replaced because it sucks to have a flaw in something so new.

Thanks for your replies they were very helpful .

 

yup, design flaw.. not all lcd are created equal.
