Gateway P6860fx black screen

Hey guys, Im using this laptop for 2 years and had minor problems which i could fix but this has me helpless.. I was playing dead space 2 when suddenly my screen went black, i alt tabbed out of instinct and it just mocked me. I could barely see the white "portions" of my background and listen to music thas was already playing. And then, boom! Fixed. Played for 10 mins and again, and 10 mins after that etc. Its shut down atm and im asking you all for advice. What can i do? Quick responses are greatly appreciated. :-)

Sounds like the LCD back light is failing. Take it in to a repair depot.
