The screen is a liquid crystal display (LCD). This means that there are a bunch of tiny cells that contain liquid. When you press on the screen this distorts the liquid.

Your monitor might have a light meter built in to it (there's one on my laptop that can be switched off). This dims the screen in low light conditions, and brightens it when there's a lot of ambient light (it's supposed to save energy and make it easier on your eyes).\n\nTry exploring the menu and look for something like "eco sensor" or "ambient light balance".

Degauss, then. Hit it with a Hammer, LOL\n\nIt sounds like you have an old CRT. There are probably knobs or buttons on the monitor somewhere that adjust size and stuff, try turning them.

Do not whack it on the side, it is not a mechanical problem. This issue could be attributed to lack of RAM, how may RAM do you have? to check:\n\nRight click My Computer icon on Desktop> Properties> General Tab\n\nUsually laptops have 256 or 512 MB of RAM, sometimes when we have applications running, we run out of memory causing the system to freeze. If your system freezes, just wait till it is able to execute all the task you have ask it to do (one by one, slowly) let the computer take its time...\n\nOR better yet...upgrade your RAM....if you have 2 slots (normally), purchase 1GB of RAM...and you would not worry anymore, your computer will not get some spanking from you..

If you're talking about a thin red line on your screen, it may be your monitor.  Check to make sure that the monitor is plugged in securely.  If you have a spare/loaner monitor, plug that one in instead and see if it does the same thing.  If it does, then it's probably a problem with your graphics card.  If it doesn't, then it's the monitor.

Its hard to tell from your description exactly what the problem is but I'm going to guess it's a problem with the resolution.\n\nright click the desktop and choose properties\n\ngo to the settings tab\n\nMake sure that the resolution scroll bar or drop down menu is at least 1024x768 or greater. (The numbers might be slightly different if you have a widescreen laptop, but generally higher is better).\n\nAlso on that same tab make sure your color settings are set to their highest setting. Usually 24 or 32bit.\n\nHit Ok, the screen may blank out for a second but it should come right back.\n\nHopefully this will fix it.

I doubt it's a virus. Typically viruses are much more severe, and they don't happen as often as people think. you can try right-clicking on your desktop, choosing properties, and then clicking on "Appearence". Changing some of the settings in that drop down menu, perhaps something to do with "font", may change things back. As to why it go that way, and exactly how to fix it, I can't give a detailed answer without a more detailed question. I hope that helps some and puts your mind to rest about the virus bit. Run a virus scan if you're still concerned.

Try adjusting your display settings in Control Panel.

That happens sometimes on mine. You should be able to right-click the icon in the taskbar and Maximize or Resize it. It's probably more of an XP than a Dell problem.

This is a permanent damage that has happened to you LCD screen. \n\nThe problem might be dead or lit pixels:\nOccasionally the individual transistors responsible for carrying current to a pixel either short out or remain open resulting in what is called a dead pixel. \n\nA "lit" pixel is one that appears as one of several randomly placed white, red, blue or green pixel elements on a dark background, or you may have a "missing" pixel which shows up as a black dot on a light colored background.\n\nThis can only be replaced by the manufacturer as usually this kind of problem is not repairable in India.\n\nIf your laptop is under waranty period your lucky!

It sounds like you may've damaged your keyboard. Have you spilled anything on it, or dropped, your laptop, or otherwise done unintended (or intended) damage?

Well what I would do, is it really doesnt sound like a software problem, but go ahead and run a virus/spy/adware scan on it, and see if anything comes up, I'd try and give a better descripton of the problem also, what kind of noises do you hear, does the laptop get hot? Personally my thought is that if the entire laptop seems to me slowing down (meaning that its not just whats on your display screen) than it could be a overheating problem. If you are concered about it, I would either provide more information, have a tech look at it (and use diagnostic tools (most likey software based), or call the service center of your laptop manufacture.
