Dell :: E1705 Screen

I purchase a Dell E1705 in August of 2006 and it was a great computer until around August of 2008. What started happening is the screen would go blank or when you turned the computer on the computer would start to load and then present a blank screen.

The BIOS is updated and the battery is fine. Since the screen problem I've had Dell replace the motherboard 3 times, the video card twice, and the LCD panel twice.

Actually when the technician installed the last LCD screen and tested it the screen didn't work but when he put the old one in it did work. I kept telling him it was the video card and not the LCD panel. Turns out I was right. Thankfully my computer is under warrenty until August 2010 but I'd rather eat dog crap then deal with Dell support again. They're useless!! If I ask for their assistance this will be the FOURTH time in a little over a year and a half. Oh, and by the way, I am very carful with these machines .....
