Hello,

I have a 6-7 years old Compaq Presario V6218TU (V6000 Series) laptop. Until now it was working fine. Since last few days I was getting some screen flickering problems. When i open the lid sometime the screen will come on or sometime it will go blank. But since yesterday this has become a constant problem. So when I lift the lid and turn on the laptop I will see screen image (windows logo) for a fraction of second and than screen goes too dim (complete black). But when I look at it at some angle I can see the screen image and windows booting up. If I close the lid again and open again I can see the lock screen for a second and than it will go blank again.

I can see laptop working perfectly when I attach an external monitor (my TV).

What might be a problem? How can I resolve it?

Thanks

Hello,

I tried a new inverter, but it didn't work. Still the screen gets on for a split second and than gets off. What might be the problem? /is the screen a problem or something else? I want to make sure before ordering a new screen. And there is any website to get a screen for cheap?

Thanks
