My screen works fine for the most part, but sometimes it goes really dim. When I move the lid, it goes back to normal. What is causing it to all of a sudden go dim? I have Apple Care for my Mac, but I've installed a new hard drive and new RAM; does that void my warranty? Any advice on this matter is greatly appreciated.
Got a tip for us?

Any idea what I should do now?
Help will be greatly appreciated

Well it's the original MacBook...the one in the picture on wikipedia with the fire wire and all.....
And it's core2duo.
I bought it in 2008.
Makes sense? :/

or even MacBook 4,1 !!
will probably be the cable between the logic board and the inverter - easy enough to replace if you don't have a problem taking your MacBook apart
Great thankyouu....now i gotta go to a service center
There is also a setting under Energy Saver labelled:
Automatically reduce brightness before display goes to sleep.
Uncheck that and see if it makes a difference.
