    Eclipse (Solar) - PC remix

    So over my trip in Indonesia it was raining hard one day and the tissues I was using to wipe the monitor of my laptop got wet from the rain. Some of the water dripped into the small openings of the power button and then I got:

    I've noticed that the eclipse moves when I tilt the laptop sideways and when it's unplugged. I'm going to conduct an experiment tonight to see if I can get it off the screen. I originally thought circuits were fried, but apparently this eclipse thing is something different? If it doesn't work I will contact Acer about it

    Edit: I typed "I've noticed that I noticed" god dammit

    This is really unfortunate, but I definitely would like to say something...

      LOL acer

      They have horrible customer service. I would never buy anything from them. Dell is better.

      Well anyway, I hope you can find a way to remove that thingy.

        That's actually pretty cool man. When my laptop screen cracked I had a really dumb splotchy pattern. You should be happy you have what you have.

          The laptop was $350 and it does the job for me. The year warranty is over (I've had this since July 2012) but I'll see if I can figure out something here. If not, I may just have to get the monitor replaced if possible or just get another laptop.

          I'm honestly surprised this laptop is still functioning fine, just I have a little eclipse friend blocking the right of my screen haha

                That black blob reminds me of the void from FFV or something.

                I've had this HP laptop since 2009 and it hasn't bit the bullet yet (Y)

                  hey Roy -- if you put $350 for that laptop and are willing to sink your money into a new laptop, look into a Lenovo laptop. Kayla got me a Lenovo G505 for my birthday and I absolutely love it: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applicati...?EdpNo=8176855

                  (You would have to downgrade from Windows 8 and get the drivers, which is only a slight hassle, but it should be alright.)

                  alternatively, you could get the G510 from the Lenovo website at $479, and then apply promotional codes to get it < $400.

                    i had an acer.. went to bed one day and found the same black circle on my screen (assuming something cracked it when i closed the monitor but i didn't feel or hear anything) and it ended up like this

                    it still works though!

                      That seems like a pain, thankfully the laptop is still usable though. I hope you can find a way to fix it :/

                        But windows 8 is superior to windows 7 in almost every possible way. Especially for FFR as it doesn't have the aero desktop conflict anymore so it runs perfectly smooth.

                        Everything that is bad about it (metro ui) is easy to get rid of.
