    My screen died on me a few days ago (2nd time since March 08).
    Re-seating the connectors made no difference :(
    I work at sea (Egypt) and will not get home (Australia) until late Sept 09.
    So I had to connect to an external screen.

    Now my keyboard has become unworkable.....
    Does anyone know if this is due to the external monitor? If so, is there a solution?

    I had this laptop 17 months and this will be the 4th time I have to send it back.

    1 x Screen
    1 x Motherboard
    1 x hinges (they are totally gone again)

    I feel like throwing the whole thing over the side....... I never had such an unreliable piece of equipment.

    I am so frustrated with all this. :mad:
