Yes Tariq_01. That indicates for the replacement of the display panel.
Before that, I suggest you do a hard reset.

Shut down the system.
Unplug AC adapter, disconnect it from laptop
Disconnect all the external peripheral devices attached.
Remove the battery
Press and hold POWER button on the laptop for 15-30 seconds.
Wait for few minutes
Connect battery
Plug in AC adapter
Power on.


If this doesn't help, only option left is display panel replacement. Contact HP in your region.


Hope it resolved your issue,
thanks,

HOLD DOWN F11 wen u start it up. It took a few times but I got it to go to factory reset. Plus I didn't remember my password either. But now I'm in. Both problems solved
