Laptop Issues on my end

I'm usually pretty brisk on setting up the current weeks, updating tournaments, etc. I'm having a few laptop issues with my screen and not being too good with computer, might have somebody take a look at it this week to see what is wrong.

If anyone is good with laptops, the right side of my screen goes black. Sometimes it just looks like a bad signal from a satellite TV, then goes black. I can usually manipulate it by moving the screen back and forth to where it will work for a spell. That leads me to believe it is a lose wire or connection perhaps? Hopefully the whole screen doesn't need to be replaced. Laptop isn't that old, maybe two years, and never took any abuse.

Either way, might be down updating things for a few days. Can only do so much on my phone. Just wanted to let you guys know.

No problem. I guess it depends on when I bring it down and what the issue is. I can still do a few things on the phone, but will probably be tough updating everything. Shouldn't be down too long is my guess.

get an HDMI cable and plug it into a T.V., you should be able to see everything normally.

It's definitely the screen. Just hoping not the monitor itself. Maybe a loose cable or connection.

Should have it back soon. Needed a new monitor and had to be ordered because it's a touch screen. Looks like I haven't missed a lot.
