There seems to be something wrong with my display. Occasionally my display suddenly begins to "flicker" like mad and all I can do is restart the laptop by force. I made a video of it and uploaded it to YouTube.
I've encountered this problem for the first time two weeks after I got the laptop. But then the problem didnt occur for almost 2 months. However, I had this problem a couple of times now during the last week.
I don't think it has anything to do with drivers or whatever, since the problem was there basically from the start. I happens completely randomly, sometimes it happens during games, but it also happened when I was writing an E-Mail or just browsing the web. I also updated the bios, so I'm pretty sure it is some hardware malfunction.
I don't recall any W860CU user having the same problem, does anybody have some idea what the problem could be? I'll contact my reseller as well.

From the video it might be a loose/bad cable or connection around the hinge area from GPU to screen but I think there's a stronger chance that it is either an inverter or GPU issue. As you mentioned - best to contact your reseller seeing as it seems to be a hardware issue.
