netBook screen calibration

My netBook's screen calibration is drifting all over the place. Sometimes it is even too far out to tap the targets and I have to restore factory settings to get a bit closer and then calibrate. Have tried a soft reset to no avail. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,

Hi Rick,

Usually this is to do with the connection betwen the ribbon cable from the screen and the motherboard deteriorating. Bizarre though it may sound, a short-mid term fix is to press down reasonably hard on the netBook logo/badge just above the keyboard. This presses on the connecting block and usually improves things for a while.

Longer term you need to gain access to the connection and clean the connectors (or get someone skilled in such things to do it for you).

Cheers,
Martin

Thanks (again!)
