    The screen on my FE just yesterday decided to go all funny on me. I was playing a game, TF2 online and suddenly the screen went all green and fuzzy, with odd fluro colors flickering all over the screen. Its as thought a lime green has taken over the pure blacks and a bright pink has taken over all the pure whites.

    Here is a picture of my screen taken just before writing this:

    Obviously i cant take a screen grab as it will show up fine on another computer, its just the display on mine.

    Ive been told it may be a loose video cable or something similar, and ive done some sniffing around and found this photo here, displaying the guts of the laptop.

    If i was to be looking for loose ends etc (im not hugely tech savvy with electronics), where would i be looking?

    Also, is there anything else that could have caused this problem? :(
