    I have a confusing issue with my Asus G72GX (Best Buy model)...

    My screen flickers and/or goes blank on its own; however, rotating the screen all the way back or forward seems to temporarily fix the issue.

    Any known issues or resolutions to this problem?

    I'm getting ready to sell it, and I would like to fix it before I dump it.

    Thanks in advance!

    Souns like it may be a loose connector, have you had the screen off recently?

    Also, have you tested it with an external monitor? If that displays correctly without issue, I would guess it's a loose connector like JOSEA.
