[QUOTE="chscag, post: 992480, member: 46727"] I don't believe it's the inverter since the screen is lighted. A dead inverter will result in a screen which is dark and which the video can barely be seen. (The inverter drives the backlight.) However, it could be related to your video chipset. You need to track down the trouble a bit more. Try this: Attach an external monitor to your MacBook (you'll need an adapter) and see if the problem also displays itself on the external monitor. If you don't have an external monitor to use, a late model TV should work. Post back the result. Regards. [/QUOTE]
