Hmmm.... that is a good sign.  The GLOD is the dreaded Green Light Of 
Death, which can indicate either the need for a power manager reset 
(easy) or a hardware problem (power board or CPU - bad).

Your problem could be as simple as the LCD cable being not quite set 
properly.  In which case, taking off the keyboard should show you if 
this is true.

www.genchan.com has some tear down instructions.

Worst case, you might need a new screen, which arent too expensive on ebay.
