[email protected] I have an HP netbook and there are a bunch of colored squiggly lines across the screen. I know at one time, I had to take the battery out and wait a certain amount of time, but I can't remember what I did. Can you help to restore my screen?

You have Video/GPU failure... Common issue with that model, The graphics chip uses a BGA (Ball Grid Array) Connection, meaning there are hundreds of solder balls that connect the chip to the motherboard, and with your laptop, they used a Cold Solder as Apposed to a Lead Free Solder, And That Cold Solder Connection can not stand up to the heat, The BGA Contacts then Crack and you loose Video... You will need to Have the Video Chip Reflowed or Reballed, Or If Not Able To Do that, You Will Need to Replace the Motherboard To Repair the issue...
Though .... if you are less than a Year out of warranty, you can look up your model on HP's Website (search google for hp dv6000 recall list), and if you're on it, you can get the issue repaired at thier cost..

I would think that someone, somehow has hit the TV screen with something. My TV screen has a black line going across the middle horizontally and it intersects with a colored line going down the side vertically. Wher the 2 lines intersect is where it was shot with a bb.

Getting colored vertical lines on the screen of my hp pavilion dv9000. I've come across this a couple of times and was able to fix it by pc recovery. Not this time. I'm getting the virtical colored lines...

Typically you are looking at a hardware problem here. Vertical lines typically indicates there's interference in the video stream received on the display, or a problem with the panel itself. You might be able to open the device and try to reseat the ribbon, but you risk destroying the device in the process if you don't know what you're doing.

Picture quality

Contact your local service rep as this sounds like a "not so easy fix' related to the main board or power supply (known issues with Mits boards, especially the capacitors). Cleaning, resetting, re-configuring will not likely make any difference. Verify the problem occurs across all input modes (such as DVD, etc). before taking any service actions.
