Another trip to the repair shop

[jcollie719]

I looked up what might be causing my laptop screen to go dark. The suggestions were either a defective backlight or inverter. I took the laptop into the repair shop this afternoon, so I should know by Friday what the trouble is and how much it will cost (hopefully not too much.) I paid almost $300 at a different shop to fix the broken power supply, add 2GB of memory and remove some spyware. I should be fine as long as this problem doesn't cost more than that.
