I have a Dell laptop that was working fine until just the other day. Now while I can see the screen when booting up it goes lmost blank after about 1 minute. There is a very faint ghost so I can just see that it has windows open and I plugged in a monitor and that works fine. Any ideas? I did upgrade to SP3 recently but cant think why that would do this.Thanks a lot1 person needs an answerI do too

Your laptop screen is failing. This is a hardware problem that you probably can't fix yourself. Contact Dell tech support.MS-MVP - Elephant Boy Computers - Don't Panic!
