Soooo... My parent's have had this laptop for 8 years now. Regularly maintained and taken care of by me (cleaning, thermal paste, new RAM, disk etc.), but a couple of weeks ago, something happened. Horizontal lines appeared over the screen making everything pretty much unreadable. The screen is also way dimmer than before. I am looking for the cheapest way of fixing this (if possible) without replacing the actual screen. Any ideas?
NOTE: The secondary screen (over VGA) works fine, so it's not a GPU problem.
