There is a florescent light behind the LCD, it may be going
bad causing a flicker, Also there could be other damage to
the wiring or the LCD.
But the power to the light or the bulb itself is my guess.
Hope it is still under warranty.

| Intermittently, my screen flickers really bad, to the

|
| External monitor is unaffected.

| Sometimes putting the computer into stand by and turning

| it does not.
|
| What do you think could be the source of these

| been abused. I don't think its some sort of loose
| connection or anything like that, based on the fact that
| with it sitting still on my desk it will switch between
| working and not working.
|
| I was wondering if it was some sort of software
| corruption, perhaps backing up my data and restoring the
| hard disk would be a fix?
|
| Open to suggestions.........I appreciate your help.
