Hello everyone,
I am the owner of an HP Pavilion DV7T-7000. I bought it this past August, and the warranty will still be in effect for a while. However, mid December of 2013, the screen began to act up. I suspect the graphics card, but I was not foolish enough to void the warranty and work on it myself. So I called HP, and told them. They said it needed to be sent in for a repair. I sent it in, and I got it back today.
When I got it back, I turned on the system. The problem was still there! It was slightly fixed, but it was still there. I called HP, and they said I'd need to send it in...again. However, after using the laptop all day, I am unable to re-create the problem again.
The problem was still there when I had gotten it today, but now it seems to have gone away. Should I still send it in? My thoughts are that if I can't re-create the issue, they probably can't either. To my knowledge, they didn't fix it. I haven't heard of any hardware repair, that will go away in time.
What should I do?
Also, if you're wondering what type of issue I'm having it looks like this.
The problem only happens when you open/close the hinges on the laptop. It's probably as simple as a wire isn't fully plugged in, but I'd rather leave it to the "professionals"
