    i would say that it sounded like your LCD had cracked, but that's noticable even when the computer is off.

    Have you tried hooking up the laptop to an external monitor? If the laptop works fine from there, then you have isolated the problem to the laptop's LCD.

    so it works without the battery in it? So only works in AC mode?

    If it doesn't work in both cases it could be your videocard overheating because of overclocking or dust or the heatsink somehow got nudged or moved out of place.

    Cheers,
    Mike

    the same with battery and in AC mode(for ac mode needs battery to, because without battery it's not going) and after 10 min everythings stops. even the processor cooler...
