Hey Tech,
A few days ago noticed a white line on the left side of the screen, just appeared suddenly!
everything else working as usual, I take screenshots by keyboard this white tiny line did not appear in the image,
Example: see image (1), but it's visual to me on the screen, so I took one with mobile, see image (2)
Please advise if anyone knows what is the cause of this line and if any solution to recommend.
Thanks in advance guys

I have not watched the YouTube video
So I do not know if the folowing is included

1. Check if the line shown on your image from the mobile camera
is present in the BIOS or POST screen
If it is the likely cause is the screen, or its connecting ribbon cable

2. Check if you can if it present on an external monitor
IF IT IS NOT this tends to confirm the above.

thanks for all your replies guys,
the monitor is a built-in laptop, not a desktop PC monitor, so there is no connecting cables,
this white line just appeared, in my usual daily use, no fall on the floor or any hard cause for this, just turned on as usual on a day, few days ago and noticed this,,

Re this

and my post
or its connecting ribbon cable
the cable I refer to is the ribbon cable that connects the laptop monitor to the system board

You need to carry out the tests suggested
