Screen Problem with K115S

Hello all, I'm new to the forums, and I'm from Italy
I bought my VAIO a year and a half ago, and had no problem since then.

Sadly, today I had a very bad problem 😞

I was on Internet when suddenly the "brightness" of the screen went to zero. To describe the problem more "technically", it's like the dots weren't being "rear-lighted" anymore. I could still barely see the screen, but the first feeling was that it had gone totally black.
Upon closer examination I noticed the computer hadn't crashed, but only the "screen light" basically turned off.

SO I decided to restart the computer and everything went fine again, but I fear the problem may be happening again very soon. 😞

Some days ago, I think I got the same problem, but for a split second, so I didn't give it a lot of importance.

Has any of you had the same problem? Is the default warranty only a single year, right?

I love my VAIO, but I'd hate to be forced to say that it lasted only a year and a half 😞

Thanks in advance for any help.

Sounds like you will need a new inverter board or LCD backlight

No other problems with the monitor so far... but thanks for the advice, I'll keep that in mind if that happens again.

Now it's my CD player that turned off without any forewarning O_O
OMG, I had better reboot.

Later.
