Dell :: Old Inspiron 8100 Screen Blacks Out.

i found a old dell inspiron 8100 at my work that needs repaired.

the laptop works good except when i first got it couple days ago the screen would stay on but when you first start it would have a red or pink tint to it than would clear up after like min or 5min to normal.

so i ran it for couple hours because it did say with a note on the laptop the screen blacks out.

so that was true it went out than when i close the lid and open it would come back on for awhile.

and than it got to the point it ony comes on for like 5sec at start up than goes right off but you could see everything with a flash light facing it .....
