My macbookpro started acting out. You can see the screen is active but the backlight is gone. If I press on the left side of the laptop it comes on... so I don't know if it is a loose cable or what... any ideas?
Laptop is a MacBook Pro 15" with ATI Radeon X1600 video card

  • yes mate thank you, i punched it in that spot and it works again :) legend

  • check out this video I wonder If this is the solution

    "MacBook Backlight fix"

  • Now check this: 2 years ago i used to have an ibook g3. On the day i bought an ipod touch 2g the backlight started to pass out. That's why i bought a new laptop 1.5 years ago. and guess what: I got an iphone for xmas and my new laptops backlight is fucked up now, too. WTF

  • Every time I play this video my backlight stops cutting out!

  • that's what i call it a good trick hihihihi

  • Now that's perfect cover for watching explicit content.

  • one whay to hide if your watching pon :P

  • LOL

    you have to press it to make the screen come on

  • My 1st iBook screen crashed after 13 months. Had to buy new one (G4) This worked for 5 years, then wouldn't boot. I wanted to replace it but Apple don't do System 9, so I had a go at tampering. SOLUTION: A carpenter's cramp was used to clamp it to my desk. Hey Presto! It now boots. I tried the same to that old iBook & that now works! I now have 2 make-shift laptops & can still use my beloved Pagemaker & Pagemill & access my old files. CONCLUSION: System 9 GREAT! System10 & Apple quality: CRAP
