| | I lost my cool. I lost my cool. I put a cigarette out on the LCD screen out of anger. I then cooled off and tried to heat the spot with a lighter and smooth it out with the side of my BIC, but the lighter got stuck into the screen. Thinking I was totally screwed I went for broke and put an ice cube on it to see if I could snap it off but apparently some water dripped into the screen and the lighter did not budge. Now it looks like the Bubble screen saver when it heats up. I am left with a white Bic light stuck sideways in the screen that resembles a Lava Lamp because the bubbles appear to move through it. If anything else…I don’t have to look far for a light. Dan’s World Inc.™ |

| | RE: I lost my cool. Hi Dan, Unfortunately, you have damaged your monitor beyond repair. Even if you did manage to remove the lighter from your screen you will be left with severe distortion in that area and possibly a cracked screen. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but the only solution would be to get a new monitor. And next time, please use an ashtray!
