    Hello,

    MODEL: VGN SZ650N/C

    I think there is something wrong with my LCD. There are two very faint lines that begin at the bottom-right of the LCD. It is visible during boot up and windows XP.

    Has anyone experienced this problem before?

    I have always taken great care of this laptop, so, I'm suprised to see this artifact in the LCD. This laptops is only a few months old.

    Here is a pic. It's a little hard to see. I took the picture with my cellphone camera. What you are looking at is the bottom-right corner, next to the clock/taskbar.

    I'm thinking of having it warrantied, if the problem persist.

    Let me know what you think. Thank you,

    esoin

    I had a similar problem a week after buying my TZ — four white blobs on the screen that were not there when I bought the notebook. The Sony service center in Berlin replaced the LCD.
