However, it didn't go blank from inactivity but instead just went blank randomally. It would not resume the back light upon movement of the mouse or keyboard. You could barely see the desktop and my bluetooth headphones were still playing the music I had in the background. I had to do a hard reset because I couldn't the screen well enough to run any sort of diagnostics. After reboot the screen back light started to display again without any problem. At first I thought it might be a hardware issue but now I believe it to be a software issue.
