Use a multimeter to find the connection that is ground, then compare that to the other set of pins, for example, if "X" is ground and "-" is everything else; if you find:

----X--

and the other side is

--X----

then you know the connector on the left (top pic) connects to the right (bottom pic).

is that how you connect them because i thought 1 or 2 of the wires are crossed

Well, that's how I wired it on my NES portable, and its screen works fine, so I would assume the diagram is correct.
