hi today two verticle lines have apearred on my screen one green and one red it is all the way down i pressed the top of the case they dissapearred but appeared when i moved the screen... help please ....
 
I was going to suggest it might just be a dodgy ribbon cable but I did a quick Google and come across THIS PAGE, Is it like the 3rd image?
 
According to that site it looks like it might need changing, personally though I'd be checking the cable before I bought a new screen, there easy to get into and worth trying
 
is either of theses options expensive k.s.h and do you know a reputable shop were i can have this done ?
 
The ribbon won't be expensive if thats all it is, not sure on screen prices, only changed one and that was out of an old laptop, easy enough to do yourself if you get hold of a screen
 
Surely you can undo half a dozen screws and pull a cable out of a socket carefully then do the same in reverse :D
 
my guess personally it is the ribbon cable has come loose or broken in some way as it only happens when i move teh screen and i then have to 'set' it to get it back but sometimes the lines come back. i read after a google that the ribbon cable does somtimes become loose after freqeunt opening and closing of the laptops..
