It may have something with the resolution settings prior to the Desktop appearing. Have you tried an external monitor to see if it shows up there? Are you running normally with just the LCD turned on?

Does "gently" tapping or putting pressure anywhere help or hurt the situation?

We have a Dell Inspiron 8200 lap top which just has developed a blue line through the initial Microsoft xp Home background page. The line is about 40% in from the left side of the screen running vertically up and down the page. The line on the screen does not appear when on line or running applications.Does anyone have any idea as to the cause or suggestions to clear up the line?

Thanks
