[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1035227, member: 46727"] Well, you should know if your warranty has expired or not, right? Do you have Apple care? If not, the warranty is only for one year from date of purchase. I doubt that it's your LCD since the machine is only one year old. It is possible the LCD is defective, but it may wind up being your graphics chipset which has failed. And that is much more costly since the GPU is mounted to the logic board which means the entire board has to be changed out. That would cost around $600 to replace if it's not under warranty. Run the test with an external monitor as suggested. Regards. [/QUOTE]
