The problem is inconsistent, but it happens more often than not. Everything powers up as normal, but the screen doesn't come on. An external monitor works fine with it.
The only time it does this is booting up. I can open and close the lid, shake it, or do anything else and I cannot make the screen turn off or on while the pc is running. It only fails to come on when it's booting up, which includes rebooting. Sometimes it will turn on 10 times in a row, and sometimes it'll only turn on only one out of ten boots, but it's inconsistent and absolutely unpredictable.
Any idea what's wrong and what I'll need to do to fix it? It won't be the first time I've had this thing apart. It has not been a reliable machine.
Thanks in advance,
K
