Gateway mx6426 lcd display
I have been working on a friends laptop in which the LCD display does not work. In the process of trying to fix the problem I have replaced the LCD screen, the inverter board and the LCD harness (flex cable) and I still get no display. I can plug the laptop into an external monitor and it works fine so the computer itself is okay, just no display. I'm at my wits end trying to figure out what else to do. Can someone there suggest anything? Thanks in advance, Nick |

Well two things come to mind. 1) If you use a flashlight or a strong light, if it is a backlight problem... you should see the display very faintly. Things in white will be easier to see. If you can see it, sounds like the lid switch is stuck. 2) It is still possible I have heard to have a bad video card even if an external monitor works. This model, I don't know if it has a separate video card from the motherboard or not. -- Bill Gateway MX6124 - Windows XP SP2 |
