Laptop screen works, but is flashing colors?

I have my fairly new HP Pavilion Dv6. Im assuming that this happened because of me keeping it in my backpack with alot of books etc.

Now i just turned it on and about half of the time it is flickering different colors, and sometime it stops, or lasts a few minutes. Should i take it apart and reseat the LCD cable connection? Or any other suggestions?

    It would be the cable underneath the LCD that runs down to the inverter at the bottom of the LCD bezel. Usually reseating or replacing that cable takes a pro. It could also be a connection inside the LCD itself, which would require a new LCD -- once again it will take a trip to the shop and a pro to determine which it is.

    I do not consider that is correct
