Blues showing up purplish off colour, is it Graphics, inverter or backlight?

Run_to_da_hills · 2010-04-01 19:46:05

I have a Dell 9400 and the screen has been showing up "off colours" for quite a while now particularly in dark blues / purple often with a tinge of a red outline. Could this be backlight, inverter or graphics card? Cheers.

Best thing to do is connect an external moniter to the laptop

Be it a TV or destop monitor,

If it is the same as the laptops screen its the card

If it perfect it lcd

Hope this is of help
