We will be in touch
Mrs Grips' Vaio P series has bits of dust (it's actually baby porridge) between the plastic cover and the actual LCD of the screen.
Last time I tried to take apart a broken screen it basically destroyed it, it being glued up and all. Anyone got any experience/tips?
it's actually baby porridge
Too much information.
(-:
Depending on where it is, a can of compressed air might dislodge it?
It's right in the middle, and I can see no obvious way to introduce compressed air (or porridge flakes for that matter). And if I dislodge it it'll only migrate back somewhere else. There's quite a dusting.
Are you sure it dust and not just wear from you logging onto CRC nad poking the screen: "I want THAT one!"
😉
Looks like the screen is in two bits, so you could take it apart and clean it:

But it doesn't look like much fun.
"I want that one!"
"Elecra Hawaii 1 speed kids bike in pink?"
"Yeh!"
Anyway that disassembly looks well scary 🙁 And I've done laptops before...
I had our Dell apart after the little one dragged it off the dining table. It all went back together easily.
The Vaio P has more stuff in it than the average lappie (GPS, 3G modem etc) but is about 1/5 the size!
baby porridge isn't a euphamism for something else is it?
Sadly not. It's porridge made from various grains finely ground up, you feed it to babies with milk.
