Hello, I am at my wits end and need advice.
I have an Acer Aspire 7750G and one day I woke it from sleep to find all the display colors horribly altered.
Every color has completely changed, making words hard to read and normal function virtually impossible (I can still navigate effectively).
What I've tried:
I've been using it just fine with a monitor plugged in (VGA), so the graphics card is functioning properly as far as this output goes.
I've replaced the lcd screen... problem remains.
I've reseated the lcd cable both to the screen and to the mobo.
I've run windows display calibration... knew that would be a waste of time.
So I'm out of solutions at this point. I've read some things about running "lcd bist" but not for an Acer and I've also read about magnets altering the voltage outputs of the graphics card resulting in a similar issue... I can say I did accidentally set this for a brief moment atop a sub-woofer just before the problem began(I know...DUMB), but I'm just not sure anymore.
If anyone has any ideas or possible solutions, I would greatly appreciate it.
Cheers,
Tony
