I love this...

Thanks mikey.


Alright, there's one more thing I have to do before it's complete.

I need to find another spot on the screen mobo where the composite line can be re-attached. I think the trace is broken on the back of the board.

I think bacteria made a guide of how to remove the bottom of the screen board and it showed where everything can be wired to. Anybody know where that guide is?

[palmertech]

His guide does not work for NTSC screens, at least on mine; The resistors have a different layout.

I will take a pic of mine tomorrow for you, sound good?

Oh, dang. Anyway, I found out it's actually doing the same thing it did before. Backlight comes on, but no indicators or screen. This time though I just think it's the ribbon cable.

I checked once more before I go to school. It was just the ribbon cable.

*ahem*

are you sure the ribbon cable is in correctly? I had something similar happen and I was trippin out until I looked saw that the ribbon was not hooked up.

Don't worry, I wasn't ignoring you. This was for the new screen. I checked the ribbon cable on the old screen.

Actually I got the same problem on the new screen as the old one and I just gave it a bigger wire for ground. So my old screen might not be broken. I'm glad that I didn't start treating it like crap and throwing it around or in a junk pile.
