    I had my Alienware m9750 for almost 3 years, and a few month's ago i've experienced blackscreen problems , and strange colors/lines. I haven't really had time to mess around with it as i'm busy with school. Basically it was working fine , and when i decided to turn it on the next day wouldn't boot..i didn't even play any games for a long time when it happened so i'm not sure if it's the video card or not. , Anyways it's strange but if i try like 10 times it will eventually boot up and totally work as if nuttin is wrong with it. Then maybe 10mins later or on restart , the screen usually either turns color/lines or goes black...and the screen is literally black so i don't know if this is screen problem as i haven't hooked it up to external monitor yet, but decided to post on it just to see what help i can get Don't think its worth much anymore lol.. so don't really wanna spend any money on it as i don't game much anymore. . Thanks!
