    I have a year old M305 S4910 toshiba laptop that flickers two different ways every couple of seconds. The whole screen flickers about every 4 seconds and there is a flicker over the taskbar at the bottom of the screen every 2 seconds. I had the LCD screen replaced twice, as well as the inverter, the LCD cable, and a bracket for the right side of the monitor. I'm waiting for a box to come here to ship the laptop off to the depot. Should I try something else before shipping it off? I've heard that it could be the video card that could be causing the problem. Have you heard of anyone getting their toshiba back from the depot fixed or getting theirs replaced because it's not fixable? I just don't want to have to worry about my laptop being at the depot for a month and it still not being fixed. I return to school in about a month and want it fixed or know that I have to buy a new laptop before the semester starts again. Any insight/help on this issue would be greatly appreciated.
