    Laptop screen tinted green and has pink bands
    « on: March 07, 2016, 05:05:10 AM »
    HI,
    Yesterday i was playing a game on my laptop with the power plugged in...while i was playing the display went black and when it came back there were purple bands vertically on the screen and it became tinted green....the intensity of the purple bands( refer pic) decreases after a while to normal but the screen always remain tinted greenish...could you suggest what could be the cause of it?

    model is ASUS n550jk

      Then that's likely your issue...

      With laptops you should only use Drivers from the laptop manuf. site...

        But the purple bands appearing while the laptop is booting...and then it just fades away after a while...should i try uninstalling the drivers?

          hello
          i tried reinstalling the drivers from the site but the problem still remains :/  i just noticed that when the screen has a white background then it turns back to the normal state for a second but after a second it flickers with pink shades eventually going green and the same thing repeats when the screen is white...can see that the previous screen remains burned when the pink one flickers....

          Try the machine on an external monitor/TV and see if you get the same issue on that.

            yeah i made sure that the driver is correct...the laptop is nearly 1.5 year old :/ it was plugged in when it happened..is it because of some circuit? i am scared whether i would have to replace the display as it would cost a lot
            When i used it on Tv everything is working fine..i dont have the same issues
