Averatec laptop backlight turns off after random lengths of time. Can still
see the dim images on the screen that behave normally to mouse inputs, so the
LCD is still alive.

I presume that the high-voltage PCB that runs the bulb is going bad. Is there
any chance that this is a virus or software bug that is causing the backlight
to turn off?

I Googled for this but nothing definitive came up.

Thanks,
