       my computer have with lines on the screen...... how can i fix it?

 
   7 times out of 10 it will be the Graphics chip (GBA) which can be repaired  by a re-balling procedure/service ... CNC controlled equipment to hold, heat, remove the chip .... after cleaning off old non-lead solder (Crap) is re-soldered (Balled) and heated and replaced back on the board precisely

  cost in the UK can go from £79 to £180 depending on how gullible you are .... with over 12,000 laptop and notebook models in the last 7 years ....w458n just don't cut it for tracking down the specs ..... I use to own a Winchester-458 but the nrules that out ... could there be more numbers or even a manufacturer involved ?

  It could also be several other things really,.... from screen/pixel bleed to ribbon cable, I'm afraid even the photo's you supplied are not very helpful
 a video in these situations generally will relay much better imformation

  If you truly want some advise .... take half the time I took in replying and supply relevant, detailed information  8)
