[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1204106, member: 46727"] It's difficult to accurately predict what is causing the intermittent problems you're having. Lightning strikes are usually very unforgiving. I know of that first hand when several years ago we had a strike across the street which took out my TV sets, computer, modem, and air conditioning controller unit. Very expensive.... It could be the inverter, the backlight itself, the DC power board, or something on the logic board. You might be fighting a losing battle by trying to track it down. If you can live with it the way it is until you get enough $ to buy a new machine, that's what I would do. [/QUOTE]
