What is the best method of cleaning my Vaio notebook LCD screen?

There are great static cloths at the vision center in wal-mart. They clean glasses perfectly with one wipe. I use it for my computer screen as well. No liquid required.

Use a soft cotton cloth or tissue for the screen and use a blower to clean the internal dust without removing the cover of the CRT.

I am weird, I clean my keyboard and mouse with rubbing alcohol pads and my desk with Lysol wipes. That was before I found about that story about the bathroom. Dirty computer equipment has always bothered me. I have scrubbed old beige monitors with Comet cleaner..works real good!

Yes. The best way to clean it is to get some rubbing alcohol and Q-tips. Dip the Q-tips in the rubbing alcohol and then swab the copper connectors on the battery. Do the same for the connectors on the laptop. Let it dry completely before putting the battery back in.

Depents on the screen type you have.  If you have an LCD screen I would recommend staying away from Windex and glass cleaners.   For an LCD display you can find an anti-static spray at Office Depot and some Walmarts, use with a lint free cloth.  For CRT displays (old monitors) its ok to use Windex or glass cleaners.  I would recommend a glass cleaner over Windex because I've found Windex can leave a silicone type residue on a surface.   Also never spray directly on a screen, its better to spray the cloth so as to not allow over spray mist into the vents of the monitor.

LCD screens are very delicate. Once they are scratched thats it. I use a screen protector for my PDA, but would be way too hard to install on a laptop!

I know that if you go to any place like Staples, Office Max, Best Buy, etc. they have LCD cleaners that come with pre-moistened wipes and lint free cloths which I use and they work very well. And they work on screens or the exterior of products such as cell phones, laptops, iPods, etc.

Go to a computer store and pickup some screen wipes ( they normally are soaked in a type of alcohol like ethanol or something to that extent ) They arent too expensive and those would work the best.

I suggest using cleaning wipes made for monitors such as Fellowes Screen Cleaning Wipes. It's made specifically for CRT & LCD monitors. It's alcohol and streak free and has anti-static properties. Just make sure never to push down on the LCD when you're cleaning/wiping or you could give your monitor a dead pixel or two.\n\nHere's more info on the product: http://www.officeworks.com.au/shop/catalog/sku.asp?ID=FE99702&LEVEL=SK&PR=Q71&SID=68EACB0PKQDR9HPDWW5MU2WPRDJ1BK58\n\nIt's for a local stationery supply place in Sydney, but I'm sure you can find the equivalent where ever you are.

Hopefully your notebook is still under warranty. You'll probably need to get the screen replaced.\n\nAlthough... I suppose you could make sure you have the latest video drivers before sending it in.

I have a Dell and the owner's manual says NOT to use alcohol.  So I never have.  But I did get a box of specially prepared cleaning cloths for computer screens (100 to a box) for about $3.50 in WalMart.  And they've worked well.  If you use one a week, it'll last almost 2 years.  Not a bad investment.  :-)

The same eyeglass-cleaning solution sold by optometrists (and the lint free cloths) work fine on LCD screens.\n\nDon't use paper towels or harsh cleaners like Windex/Forumla 409.

The best way to clean a LCD monitor is with a mix of rubbing alcohol and water. Use a ratio of 80/20 - 80 percent water and 20 percent alcohol. Use a soft cloth, lint-free. Do not use paper towels or paper products, they will leave lint all over the screen. Do not spray the liquid directly on the screen put it on the cloth and wipe the screen gently. The LCD screen is very sensitive and prone to scratches. Do the cleaning with the monitor off or else you could damage the pixels.

Buy a microfiber cloth, This is what I use on my laptop, I used wet/dry towelets for laptops which suck. If its a CRT you don't have to use a fancy microfiber cloth.\n\nGood Luck,
