    Default What could be the problem?

    "the laptop turn on and work good some time for 2 hours or more
    and the screen see vertical lines."

    Easy fix? or $$$?

    My bet would be that at some pint it overheaded badly and damaged either the screen or video card.

    Actually it could be gummed up with dust and getting overheated after two hours use perhaps? - if that is the case then a good clean out would cure it but you'll be taking a risk.

    and Michael ... well done ... but always remember the twelve steps:

    step 1: say to yourself "my name is not jeremy"
    step 2: say to yourself "my name is not jeremy"
    step 3: say to yourself "my name is not jeremy"
    step 4: say to yourself "my name is not jeremy"
    step 5: say to yourself "my name is not jeremy"
    step 6: say to yourself "my name is not jeremy"
    step 7: say to yourself "my name is not jeremy"
    step 8: say to yourself "my name is not jeremy"
    step 9: say to yourself "my name is not jeremy"
    step 10: say to yourself "my name is not jeremy"
    step 11: say to yourself "my name is not jeremy"
    step 12: say to yourself "my name is not jeremy"

    Does the video problem only start with the overheating, or is it visible all the time?

    says up there ^ its good for 2 hrs or so then starts getting vertical lines, hence my "clogged up with dust" hypothesis
