So I my laptop (Lenovo y50) screen has been acting up lately. Basically when I open the screen it will turn black when I push the screen back and turn back on when I pull it back toward me. A few days after that was happening it continued to get worse and would act the same way except the screen would only be on if I pulled it back to about a 45 degree angle so I obviously can't see the screen very well. I'm not sure what this could be.

I also tried to make sure the connections to the motherboard and the lcd were seated and after doing that the screen won't even turn on. I'm thinking it needs a replacement cable because I can hook up an external monitor and it works just fine.
