Hi guys,
My laptop (Acer Aspire E1-572) although pretty old, has been servicing me excellently for the work I need, but due to frequent travelling I have an issue with the screen. It's filled with vertical lines on the left third of the screen. Initially it started with one line that would go away at a certain angle but eventually it stopped going away and started increasing in number (every time post travel. I think it has to do with the way pressure gets applied on it...). Later, I opened up the entire laptop and reduced the issue by maybe 85% but they were still there. A year or so later, and they're all back again, so now I'm just thinking I'll go with a new screen altogether.
1- I am in Pakistan till Eid. Any chance I can get a good screen from here?
2- I can order from the States. Anyone know of any good, reliable websites?
3- Can I put in a screen of higher resolution or will that not work? Currently I have 1366x768. Can I replace it with 1920x1080? Will it be perfectly compatible?
