    Bubbles behind my screen 0.o
    « on: September 03, 2015, 12:52:47 PM »
    Hello I have an HP Touchscreen and I recently lent my computer to my friend. However, when he returned it i noticed little bubbles on the screen which weren't there before. The bubbles are not on the surface so i'm guessing they're beneath the screen. Any help is appreciated. I don't know if they are air bubbles or moisture bubbles but I know they aren't cracks in the screen. I also cannot lift up the screen so that the bubbles come out without breaking it. I have tried pressing on them with no success. Any help is appreciated and I have attached a picture of it below. I'm dearly sorry for the bad quality.  ???

      I realize you can't see it because of how small they are but if you click on the picture I posted you will see them. Thank you for your time. Any ideas on what they could be or how I could get rid of them are gladly appreciated.

      Do you have a service plan on your phone to fix this? If you do, I'd use that to fix this.

      Looks like it might have gotten cooked in the sun or sat on and the digitizer got stressed.

      I must say it looks like water damage to me.

        I don't know what he did but its not coming out of my laptop. I don't want to be rude and ask him though. Any ideas on what caused this or how to fix this?    :||x

          He claims he just used it and says that he didn't see any bubbles. I don't think hes going to disclose anymore than that.  :-\

          My guess is that you don't have a service plan on this to cover damages...

          Looking back at the image, I now see 3 bubbles to the left, so I am switching to the fact that it looks like it got dunked or rained on etc. When looking at the picture initially I thought you had tiny bubbles that were making the wavy effect on the image. I am suppose to wear glasses and have been trying to avoid wearing them because I don't like wearing them. Sorry for missing those that are probably in plain view initially.

          The bubbles are right near the edge, which is what you expect with slight liquid ingress. Maybe there was some kind of water fight or a drink got knocked over. Many people are much less careful with other people's property than their own. Possibly you can speak to a relative of your friend such as a younger brother and bribe them with money or candy to tell you what happened? Anyhow you will now know it would be foolish to lend your friend anything else that you value.

            Its my office computer and I lent it to him because all the plans and statistics are saved onto my computer. I had no choice he is my boss as well.

            He is your boss... so it's his computer? Or your own computer?

              If it's company work you have done why wouldn't they want it saved at any expense ? ?...this is making less sense than a day ago...
