i did upgrade all of those
will try to look at the assembly, but would think that is manufacturing failure if that would be the case

I went through the remediation process with HP. After extensive (remote) troubleshooting, it was determined that the laptop screen needed to be replaced. I had been advised that the drivers would be replaced as well, but I doubt that had remedial effect as that was done remotely already. Root cause was not determined and asusmptions were made by HP support, but there was nothing else they could do remotely.

 

In the process, the OS was set back (to W8.1) and the screen performed ok. I then upgraded to W10 (Home edition, to be upgraded to Pro) and the screen has to date performed well.

 

The conclusion in this case is therefore that this as a screen / hardware issue. My laptop has now been fixed and I am relatively happy with the process that was followed. The result negated the hassle of having to re-install the windows with W10 and software + data.

I am awaiting response from HP. Am open for resolution.

Dear HP, I am definately not comfortable in opening up a laptop, also as it would violate any warranty if i would do it myself.

I expect HP to resolve the issue. So far without succes.

What to do next.

Hi,

 

I have an exact same issue with my screen as described above. I believe it has been established that it's an issue with screen asembly or hardware itself. My laptop is out of warranty and seeing that it a common problem acrros spectre machines I would expect HP to take responsibility and fix it regarless whether the waranty has expired or not.  Please let me know who I need to contact to take this further and get my laptop fixed?

 

If that not possible please update the link to the guide you have posted previously and I will try to sort it myself.

 

Thanks,
