So working as usual today, the screen just went crazy.. flickering and eventually turned black.

Seems to be a hardware problem, since the flickering is not just in Macos, but also before booting...

Any ideas? Sooo annoying I dont know where to start, this is supposed to be a quality laptop.. never happened before, and I didnt even use it at work yet, just home... so I didnt drop it or anything.

I guess I have to return it or get it repaired, this really sux.

Wrong Forum - This is for the Mac Pro Desktop

However you can just VNC to it from another computer and collect your files
