    My screen goes blank when I move it. It doesn't completely shut off, the backlight is still on. Any ideas on how I could fix it? Thanks.

    My guess is that you need to replace the ribbon/cable that leads through the hinge from the main unit to the screen.
    To be sure you should -at least partially - disassemble the notebook nd see if said cable is damaged in any way.

    I appreciate your reply. I tried Googling for some disassembly instructions. Any idea where I could find some? Thank you.
