Lcd Flickering Hi, I have a problem with my laptop screen, after using the laptop for 20 min, the screen start flickering and it's getting worse as i continue to work with it...it seems like it "need to rest"... After i stop using it for half an hour i can continue work like 20 more minutes...and it start to flicker again.. when i connect an external screen, i dont have this problem... i tought that my screen was damaged, but i am not sure, cause when my laptop workm (with external screen) and the screen closed (doesnt work) it shouldnt flicker (according to the situation i described), but when i open the screen for a moment..it's directly start flickering... does someone has an idea what damaged about this laptop?

The first thing to do is check for part availability and price - you may not be able to get the board, or price may be more than it's worth to repair the laptop. Ebay is where I usually look first. You might be able to pick up the whole top half for a decent price, and just change that. Backlight drivers are usually 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch wide, and 4-6 inches long, and have all wires on 2 plugs, in and out. Screen dis-assembly is very tricky, lots of VERY small screws, so be patient and thorough so nothing more gets broken.
It's not a simple task, but not impossible, either.
Just remember CCF's are high voltage (low current), so make sure there is no power to the system, or it will sting!!
