Hi everyone. I have a Macbook that is two years old running the newest version of OS X. All of a sudden today I started having issues with my screen. First, when I woke it from sleep it was as dim as possible and I could not get it brighter by changing the brightness. When I restarted the computer everything was fine. Now though, the screen is flickering and sort of changing brightness a little bit every few seconds. Then it will stop for a minute and start flickering a bit. Is there anything I can do besides taking it to the Genius Bar? I just started graduate school and it would be a major inconvenience to be without the computer for a week or more.

Thanks!
