Troubleshooting and Self-Repair Guide
Here are some guidelines for determining what action to take on customers complaints of cosmetic
imperfections in their TFT displays:
1. View the notebook under the customers normal operating conditions.
This means that if the customer uses the notebook predominately in DOS, in Windows, or in some
other application or combination of applications, you should make the determination under those
same applications. Self test is not a normal operating condition and is not a sufficient tool for
interpreting display quality.
2. Use the table below to determine whether the display should be considered for replacement. These
are the only conditions in this guideline that may call for a replacement due to a defect in material
or workmanship based on the HP Limited Warranty Statement.
3. If a display is considered for replacement, make sure the customer understands that cosmetic
variations may also exist on the replacement display, and may require the customer to use a work-
around to obscure the cosmetic imperfection.
4. Displays with cosmetic imperfections that do not conform to the above conditions and tests will
not normally be considered for display replacement. The HP-responsible person working with the
customer should identify work-arounds that are reasonable and appropriate for that customer.
Customers who require a more perfect display solution should consider switching to a notebook
with a DSTN display.
We expect that over time the industry will continue to produce displays with fewer inherent cosmetic
imperfections, and we will adjust our HP guidelines as these improvements are implemented.
