    Because maybe, just maybe, you're not supposed the SHAKE a laptop!!!!!!!!!!!!! Good grief!!! Maybe it's from abuse. If you are shaking it to recreate the issue, and it is happening, you are 1) only making matters worse, and 2) potentially going to crash your Hard drive. Now, that said, it's prolly the LCD connection to the Mobo or the cable to the LCD. Will require a teardown and test to know for sure. Seen it happen on a few and just needed to be resecured. And for goodness sake, QUIT SHAKING IT!!!!
