This is a problem with many Acer models. The screen does not make good contact with mass. Remove only the outer rubber dots on the screen at the top and bottom. Then tighten screws.This is a problem with many Acer models. The screen does not make good contact with mass. Remove only the outer rubber dots on the screen at the top and bottom.

You may need to perform a align cartridges if you still face the same problem then you might need to do head clean by putting the cartridge heads in warm water for like 5 minuts and then put them back hopefully this shall solve your problem.
This system has a VGA port so you can plug in an external monitor. You can buy one for less than $130 based on the Sunday ads. Other than that, it is new laptop time.
Connect an external monitor to your laptop. If the problem appears only on the display of the laptop and not on the external monitor (in the same time) that means the video card is ok and the problem could be: the screen of the laptop or the invertor or the cable that attaches the screen to the motherboard. If the problem appears on both screens, external and laptop, most probably the video card/motherboard is defective. Have it checked/repaired by a professional.
If the problem is getting worse, than either the pixels are dying (so to speak) or you might have a problem with the monitor's screen.
Unfortunately, if either of the above are true, then the only way to fix it would be to replace the screen, which can be quite expensive. If you agree that this is the problem then you'd be better off getting a new monitor instead of spending money to get it repaired.
Multiple stripes all over the screen? Vertical or horizontal?
If it's only like an inch vertical lines put a mark on the cabinet where exaclty the line is, turn off the TV then open the back, you'll see lots of ribbon wires (gold color) from the plasma panel it self going to buffer boards, using the mark find the closest ribbon wire where the line is showing then remove and clean the contacts, make sure to reseat it properly when putting it back otherwise you'll just add more lines or black bar on the screen if pins are not seating properly.
But do not be afraid if the lines get worst just turn the power off right away and reaset the ribbon wire till you get it correctly.
CAUTION;
DO NOT try to do this while the TV is on oherwise you'll burn COF (Chip on film) on the panel and you'll end up replacing the whole PDP.
This sounds like your screen is going bad. You will have to get a new screen or take it in for a repair.
