Hi y'all. I got a Toshiba Tecra 8100 on which the "backlight" (?) keeps going dim. Basically completely black, but if you look close, you can make out the desktop and mouse pointer. Sometimes it happens immediately after getting into Windows, other times it may not do it at all. Also happens in BIOS if I leave it. Seems to happen more often than not when using the AC adapter but it also occurs on battery power.
Toshiba replaced the whole screen and inverter board last week. I thought for sure that would fix it but no luck. I have to send it back again, but I thought someone out here might be able to help and avoid more trouble.
