Sounds like it could be either. I work with mostly Toshiba laptops and that is a
common symton that it is going bad. Usually, when I give my hardware guys
in-house a laptop with what you are experiencing, then they just replace the
screen and connection. The connection is a ribbon wire from the mobo to the
screen. Much easier (and probably more cost effective) if they replace both.
