Hi Folks
My Bro in Law has a laptop and the screen goes white for no reason,if he closes the lid and opens it again the screen returns to normal,i was thinking maybe a graphics card fault but not sure,has this happened too anyone else?
Many Thanks

That happened to my old Toshiba Equim lappy,ironically just out of warranty......IIRC it was the ribbon cable that links the laptop body to the screen that was at fault & would've been quite expensive to fix.Eventually the screen failed completely.
I might try to get it repaired one day when I have the money to do so but one thing that's putting me off is finding a reputable PC repair firm.Certainly would not take it to 'The Tech Guys'....

Thanks Spike
The laptop in question is a Toshiba also,as for finding someone to fix it i see quite a few pc and laptop repair people on gumtree who seem pretty reasonable,hope this helps!Norn Iron Club Member 4560
