    Anyone else experience the new dv6-1352dx you get from bestbuy where the monitor will just dim out of no where even while using it and you have to force a reboot to get it to come back up? I tried updating the bios to see if it helps and it seems it does go longer before doing it now. I first checked the simple things first, power saving features in windows 7 and the such but I took the hard drive out and let it sit in bios setup screen and the window dim'd there too. If you hold the monitor just right you can see the image is still there, and can move the mouse and see the cursor moving, its just the monitor is super dark, and a reboot fixes every time. Just don't want to have to reboot if I can help it. Thanks for any help or other experience with this.
