One day the display just started showing pixelated blocks all over the screen (http://x1000forums.gotdns.com/index.php/topic,13.msg273.html#msg273). I have tried everything from re-seating the video card, to replacing the thermal pads on the heatsink for the video card. This is either an issue with the motherboard or the video board, and THE LCD SCREEN IS PERFECTLY FINE. I know this because even when I output the video signal to a projector or connect it to a TV, the pixelation still appears. I don't think it's an overheating issue either because it starts happening even after a cold-boot.

I am willing to SELL THE ENTIRE LAPTOP FOR $400 (OBO), or INDIVIDUAL PARTS on a case-by-case basis. If you want individual parts, e-mail me first and I'll look into what I'd be willing to sell them for and give you a price quote. If you want the whole thing, It'll make me all the more happier. This was a great top-of-the-line laptop when I bought it 3 years ago, but without clear video it's useless to me.
