    I have a 700m for about a year now. For the last couple of days I noticed that occasionally the screen goes dark for less than a second and then turns back on without a problem. I noticed that this is happening when I am using IE, but the IE window is open for most of the time and I am not sure if it is related to IE, or it is related to hardware. Is this a serious problem? Anyone else having the same problem and would like to suggest a remedy?

    Thanks!
