Compaq Presario A945US Notebook
Microsoft Windows 10 (32-bit)

Hi. I have an old Compaq Presario A945US notebook which is over 15 years old. Still works pretty good, just slow. Problem is, the screen will not come on until it is open to a certain angle (almost 90 degree angle) and kinda flickers until it is at this angle. Was wondering if this problem is due to maybe a loose cable? Am trying to figure out how to fix this issue before I upgrade the original hard drive to a solid state drive. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
