Hi matrix007,

Welcome to the Community,

Try running the LCD BIST(Built in self test). To run the LCD BIST (Built in Self-test) Press and hold the D key on the keyboard while pressing the power button, then release both at the same time.This will initiate A grey screen, then Red, then Blue, then Green then White.

If the issue persists when those color screens are displayed,than it may be an issue with the system LCD screen.

Further try connecting an external monitor and confirm if the display is fine.

Let me know how it goes.

Thank You

Hi I have sort of the same problem. Yesterday my laptop was working fine and then all of a sudden the screen changed and I can't do anything on it anymore. The screen looks like 1/3 of it is horizontally grey and the bottom rest of it is black with the dell symbol at the bottom, any idea what is wrong?:p my laptop is dell inspiron N5110

Hi  1nonly,

To check if its an issue with the LCD screen  run the LCD BIST(Built in self test). To run the LCD BIST (Built in Self-test) press and hold the D key on the keyboard while pressing the power button, then release both at the same time.This will initiate A grey screen, then Red, then Blue, then Green then White.

If the issue persists when those color screens are displayed,then it may be an issue with the system LCD screen.

Also try connecting an external monitor and confirm if the display is fine on external monitor.

Thank You

Hi I did that and there was no response. I don't know if this helps but I remember that it's been randomly lowering brightness by itself also for a couple months before it broke. What is an external monitor?

Hi 1nonly,

LCD BIST test would help to find out if its an issue with the LCD screen.Try it again and make sure you press and hold the D key on the keyboard while pressing the power button, then release both at the same time.

External monitor would be monitor from your desktop system or TV if it has an option to connect (VGA,HDMI port) your system.
