Faulty LCD Screen, Oil Slick mark

[paulfromhudds]

Hello, hope someone can shed some light on this problem, think its terminal though.

I was using my macbook (2007 mid) and was all fine, i went back a couple of days later, took it out of my bag and booted it up to find a large black area on the screen to the right with a large white square under it. The whole of this area is dead, the rest of the screen is fine. How has this happened whilst in the bag, looks to me like a right hand thumb my be the culprit but i would never hold my mac like this.

Any help would be great.



Cheers

Paul

It's terminal for the lcd pannel only (it's broken), the mac should be just fine those models are not that dificult to swap the lcd pannel, if you want you can even get an matte one

What he said.

It's a broken screen. A new one will get you up and running in no time!
