the ribbon cable that connects the circuit board to the display is no longer making contact with all of the pins, it is glued on but comes loose with age. 3 options: (1) as IndySaaber says, buy a rebuilt unit or send yours in for repair; (2)take it apart & replace the ribbon cable with a new one (pixelfix.net); (3) take it apart and try to add some foam stripping to restore pin contacts (this usually doesn't work for very long). Check out the 9-5 board for lots of discussion on this.
