[QUOTE="cwa107, post: 348380, member: 24098"] Actually, that's a very good sign. It means your flex cable is attached and working. Now we know that it's either the inverter or the CCFL tube (bulb) that is the problem. Being that you have a flashing monitor, I'm willing to bet it is the inverter. The inverter is a little circuit board that is installed in the display panel itself (usually - I'm not 100% sure it's that way on your specific model). For most laptops, they run around $75 and are an easy swap if you know how to disassemble your computer. [/QUOTE]
