Hi all,
I've had my laptop for about 4 or 5 years noe, all still very healthy & upgraded (RAM & HDD), however the screens backlight is extremely tempremental, in that it sometimes just goes off resulting in an unlit screen if I move the screen by it's hinges. When it's unlit I can still see my desktop (or whatever I had on my screen when the backlight went so I know the on board graphics are working, it's just the backlight).
I'm figuring there's a lose wire that connects the screen to the motherboard maybe??
Is this an easily changed (and standard) cable to buy & replace? Or is there a more unsatisfactory diagnosis like having to replace the whole screen?
Cheers
Justin
