Laptop screen no longer lights up. I can see stuff on the screen if I shine a flashlight at it so I know the screen is good and there is just a problem with the lighting.
I'm just wondering if its the backlight or inverter before i order a replacement and hoping I could draw on others experience.
The only symptom that might help diagnose is that whenever the backlight turns off and back on (or should if the backlight system were working) such as at bootup or whenever the screen resolution changes, there is a brief pinkish flash (eighth of a second).
