Need more info. What ROM are you on? Have you done a factory reset?

 

[lidor578]

yes i did
nd im on 3.2

Flash a custom ROM, if it doesn't help, then you have a bad display.

are you sure?everything started since i deleted the driver.rar from the internal sdcard

It's a concidence, android cant even read rar files without downloaded apps.
You can make a blank file named driver.rar and it cant tell the difference

I dont want to install custom rom
can i reinstall 3.2?
How can i be sure that is a bad display?

i think you dont understand me.
i removed "drivers.rar" from the root dir
i searched how can i root my device and i found this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1411193

and in step 6:he ask me to copy the drivers.rar but i remove it and since i removed i have a green line...

Step #6 asks to copy Drivers.zip not Drivers.rar, there is a difference. Like TheManii states, a DS7 can't read a "rar" file, only a special app made for that purpose can.

I don't have any "rar" files on my DS7 but do have such files on my PC.

Drivers.zip is a folder that comes with a new DS7 although there a few that claim that it didn't.

Its a coincidence. Trust us.
You can tell if its a bad display if by after a factory reset you still see it or if you install a custom ROM and still see it.

If you aren't going to listen to us, when three people have answered your question, why are you here?:highfive:

You have proven that you have a bad display.

What can i do?

1) Replace the screen yourself, somehow.
2) Send back to Dell.
3) Sell it on eBay noted with a bad screen for parts.
4) Just give up.
