    Please do not use profanity in your question or comments; it adds nothing to the description of the problem, may be found offensive, and may cause your question to be closed and deleted. The profanity has been edited out.

  • As regards the screen flicker, I would really suspect the connector between the system/graphics board and the monitor; replacing the display that many times and the temporary alleviation you've described is strongly suggestive. That doesn't rule out other problems, however, and you're probably well-advised to save your pennies and replace the laptop.

  • @JeffZeitlin, I replace the screen at around 2k bucks and new laptop would cost around 35k(average quality) and I have also changed the cable that connects the laptop and display that too cost 1.5k bucks and the thing is I think that maybe VRAM is not enough (128MB) and because of that when I watch a video, it crosses the limit and causes flickering

  • You're clearly not in the USA; your prices are way out of line for North America at all. Nevertheless, the fact that physical pressure seems to alleviate the problem some of the time really suggests a hardware issue, not an inadequacy of resources. Note that inadequacy of resources, a failing disk, and other issues may also be present; it's likely not going to be cost-effective to keep shotgunning repair attempts - hence my recommendation to save up and replace.

  • Did I mention that white screen sometimes also happen at startup(when u don't need graphics, meaning the hard disk could be at play, windows is not even loaded or sometimes happen at the window loading screen nd sometimes before bios, I do the same hard turn off and beat up the laptop and it works in 2-3 tries but never works if I just turn it off and on)
