    I currently have two brand new DV6000z's straight from the factory.
    Both have backlight flickering when it is in battery mode and at its lowest brightness. This could be a potential flaw. Do any other DV6000z owners experience this problem? BTW, the first laptop screen is manufactured by Chi Mei, the other Quanta. :eek:

    I used Lavalys' Everest 4.0, under the monitors section.

    Anyone have this issue? Test it out, use the laptop in battery mode at its lowest brightness.

    I have the same issue, but mines a 2500t with an AUO (or AOU) screen.

    have you done anything to remedy it? such as sending it in for repairs?
    i'm thinking about return it, as it is quite annoying.

    anyone else?
