Cleaning inside laptop screen???

susi

Dont know if this the right place to post this so feel free to move it if not. I have got a couple of those tiny black harvest bugs inside my laptop screen and they are really irritating me now. They have been there for a month or so but are bugging me (pardon the pun!!) to death, how can I get rid of them?????

you would have to more or less dismantle the whole laptop to get them out

this may blow them out if you blast along the seam at the side or by the hinges

Isn't it more likely that you have a small group of dead pixels. That's what I have and it does look uncannily like a thrip has crawled in.

Nah they could well be bugs.... I got one in my tft monitor and it crawled around for about 5 days before dying in the top middle. Nightmare !

Thanks follks, no definately bugs, they were crawling around in there before they died, dont think there is anywhere to blast the air in Browntoa, having said that the little bu@@ers must have got in there somewhere!!!

OK this is a possibilty, how long have you had the laptop? The LCD and backlight unit should be a sealed enclosure so the bugs shouldnt get inside, if thay have been able to get in then it wasnt sealed correctly and you could return it as faulty during manufactureing.

Maybe you could set this as your back ground image
