Re: Vertical lines on iBook display?
Check your iBook against the serial number range on this page: http://www.apple.com/support/ibook/faq/ It may have a video problem that has been recalled. If it's not that, it will need to be checked out by an Apple Certified tech. --- Laurent Daudelin [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: All of a sudden, the screen on my daughter's iBook, a little more than 6 months old, is now displaying only vertical lines.

Re: Vertical lines on iBook display?
My Lombard G3 does that as well with horizontal lines. The tiny silver connections in the display that connect the pixels up to the driver circuitry break. There is no chance of repair other then to replace the display module.
