VGN FS 315m Screen problem

[kinginter]

Hello people, got a problem with a 15.4" FS315M Vaio.
Boots up fine, but the screen is black - you can shine a torch on the screen & just make out that windows has booted normally. My local computer shop advised that it was just the inverter & put one in but it is still the same problem. Is it possible that the screen is faulty itself or could it be the wrong inverter. He sent it back & got a repalcement but that was the same too. I don't want to buy a new screen unless it really needs it & are the backlights on these built in to the screen?

Thanks very much

You can still see the images on the screen but they are blackened (This should be the inverter? yes?)

It sounds like the inverter but as this has been replaced twice, it also could possibly be a faulty cable or backlight bulb..
