I'm using a laptop with LCD screen. Lately I have noticed that the display flickers whenever the system is booted after about atleast an hour. This occurs even if I close the lid while the computer is on to turn off the display and re-open it after more than an hour. Then suddenly everything is OK after about 5 mins. There's nothing else wrong, the colours are all in order. I don't have any graphic card and my display adapter is- Mobile Intel(R) 4 Series Express Chipset Family. I've got Windows Xp and Ubuntu as OS and display was OK for both of them about a month ago. (Though this used to occur last winter, I ignored it thinking it to be due to low temperature.) In fact flickering occurs even while booting. What's wrong?
 
Solution
It could be the inverter for the back light or the back light its self you will need to RMA it or take it to a repair shop. Last option is to fix it your self.
