Q: How do I get rid of the vertical lines on the right side of my screen (about 15% of my screen)?

It's the 3rd time it's happened, but the 1st time that a SMC or PRAM reset didn't fix the problem. I always wiped the screen just to check. Nothing.

No idea what caused it as it's always happened out of nowhere. Only thing that may be related is it's been restarting a few times a week as of late with some kind of "kernel trap/panic report" explanation. Also, my fan was pretty loud earlier today.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks Mario.

Unfortunately, none of those troubleshoots changed anything. I'm guessing I'll have to take it in for service once I'm close to an Apple Store, which won't be for a couple of weeks.

If there are any other solutions anyone knows of, I'd appreciate the info.

Thanks,
Juan
