Bottom of screen dead

Hi
Great forum!!

I had nothing but trouble with this Laptop from day one.
I really like it though.

I originally had the power connector issue which was taken care of after sending me Battery, Power cord. Then they took it and fixed it.

Then my screen went black. if I played with the open/close switch I could get it on for a while.
I was going to order a backlight but was told it was the inverter.
I ordered it and it was not an exact peplacement.

It worked accept the bottom 1/8 of an inch.
I was so happy to have it working I used it that way for a year.
Now I would like to fix it correctly.

Could it have been the fact that it was not the exact replacement or is there a setting I need to change.

I bet you are correct. I never thought of it but I watched a fight last week on another screen and it was fine.

I can not adjust it with settings or drivers as I tried all that.

When HP sent me the Inverter I questioned them because it was a little different but they said it was the correct universal replacement.
I even had to make it fit so to speak.

I will see if I can find the exact replacement.

It is really not that bad as I can see everything.
I just put the bottom blue taskbar up on top, or side so I can see it.
I never even knew you could do that until this happened.

Thank you very much
