    My V2030 display has started to go dark after being on for sometime, there is no set time for this to happen it can be from 10 sec to 1hr. If I then turn of the wireless and turn it back on it comes up to full brightness again and will again turn off after a period of time. If I run the laptop with the wireless turned off the display is slightly dimmed but usable and will stay on forever. However the screen has a pinkish tinge to it. If I use the FN+7 key and turn the brightness down and then turn it back up the screen will also come up to full brightness and then go out after some time. I have also noticed the light level flickering from time to time. Could this be the inverter or is it the back light?
