            Usually a black square is caused by closed captioning, change the settings and turn it off
            If I remember if it is set to one of the TEXT modes you will get that.

                        ok thats not the c.c. box, it looks more like a possible panel problem, maybe tab bond issue.

                                    I agree with R_J, looks like a panel issue. Check the tab bonds from the t-con to the panel itself.

                                      I have another question, why would it go away for a day or so then come back? It has done it about 3 times now? Thanks for the help

                                          Hello,

                                          I am a pro and I have a problem that I have never seen despite my 7.5 years of experience on my own and my thousands of repairs, on a customer's Dell G3 15 3500.

                                          On this PC I have already changed the complete palmrest because the keyboard was no longer working properly.

                                          I also changed the screen because the PC fell and the screen was broken.

                                          I changed the battery with a new and original battery.

                                          I also had corrosion/oxidation on the...

                                          Problem

                                          This is an LG edge LED lit LCD Display. The LEDs are on the bottom edge of the display. There are 2 bars (left and right) Each bar has many LEDs and a 6 pin connector. Each pin drive several LEDs thus is the highest current flow / heat junction. The weak lead free solder gradually fails with thermal expansion/contraction cycling and increases resistance. PSU will compensate up to a point, then when the current is too high, PSU just shut down the backlight causing a dark display. I have even seen one which the connector just fell off as solder points became completely detached....

                                          Hi everyone,
                                          I have this strange behaviour with Acer Aspire E5-574-52RH, i5 6200U, intel graphics, DA0ZRWMB6G0 Rev G, model ZRW.
                                          Laptop came in for a SSD upgrade, took everything apart to install the SSD.
                                          Everything started after modifying BIOS settings to boot UEFI instead of Legacy.
                                          Laptop works fine, i installed windows 10 and drivers/updates, everything works ok(when it works)
                                          The black screen problem is random, maybe 5 out 10 times, laptop remains with the black screen, no image

                                          Symptoms are:
                                          - random black screen after displaying Acer logo...

                                          Hello, I'm working on a new deskmod pc project and have a problem with my monitor, an AOC U34G3XM, well, I may have bricked it.

                                          The monitor was dismanteled and the separate parts parts integrated in the desk. the screen panel alone is on the upper part, and main board/video board + power board on the back of the desk (not enough place on the cover to fit it)
                                          At first everything was working smoothly, then I decided to change the connexion between the video board and the screen for a longer one. Still working fine

                                          During another reassembly, I made a mistake, and...
