    How are you able to tell whether its the inverter or the lamp that is faulty?

    Previously if the screen is very very dim I just replace the inverter and it will light up again. But with this laptop I cannot see anything at all. I had took it apart and use a flash light to see what is on the screen. So I think it might be the lamp that is faulty.

    If I open the lid a few times I can sometime get a very faint light to come up and goes away.
