Laptop Screen Problems

LtJames

My screen bugs out randomly and bare with me but the only way to stop it is to hit the bottom near the touchpad and that’s only temporary and it gets worse when not plugged in, I’m running windows 7 ultimate 64 bit and I’ve tried 8.1 and 10 also Linux and 32 bit versions of them all and none fix it and my laptop is an Acer Aspire One 532h-2962 does anyone know how to fix it?

Could be something loose that needs reseating.

 

What are your temperatures like with the Acer Aspire One?

Okay those seem reasonable... Have you disassembled the unit at any point?
