I DID START THE LAPTOP AND BOOT ON DVD, BUT I COULDN'T FORMAT A HARD DISK,I'VE GOT ERROR "20"
BATTERY WILL HOLD A CHARGE , CAN'T TELL HOW LONG.
POWER ADAPTER NOT INCLUDED.
WHAT YOU SEE IS WHAT YOU'LL GET.

THIS IS AN OFF LEASE UNIT AND HAS SOME SCRATCHES,MARKS AND SIGNS OF WEAR ON THE TOP LID AND BOTTOM BASE.MISSING RUBBER FEET .
IF YOU WANT THE ITEM SOONER,FEEL FREE TO MAKE AN OFFER.
THANK YOU FOR LOOKING AND GOOD LUCK BIDDING.
The guy has 98.1% Positive Feedback, he has sold over 780 things, so I think he is reliable.
I think the flickering screen is just a bad screen cable, and I would just need to buy a new cable and a new hard drive.
Do you think this a good deal? Is it just a simple fix like I think it is?
