Presario Laptop screen fix/substitute

I have a Presario 1655 laptop with lcd screen problem. The screen lights but no image. I can send video out to a desktop monitor with no problems. I have taken apart the display and reset the cables with no joy.

I know this screen is also in the Presario 1805 and 1810.

Anyone know a source for lcd screens and ribbon cable? Also can I substitute another Presario screen 12 inch vs. 13.3?

Thanks

Losing Files

jholland on Feb 12, 2002

I have a Gateway Select 750 with an AMD Athlon 750 MHz Processor, 128 MB Memory, 15GB WD Ultra ATA Hard Drive, EV700 Monitor, 8MB AGP Graphics Card, CD, CD-R, 56K PCI Voice Modem, running Windows98SE, have Canon BJC-6000 Printer, Epson Perfection 1250 Scanner(which was just installed Jan.13). I also have an Olympus Camedia 2040 Zoom digital and software on the system. Had to do a total system re-load Dec. 26th, honestly right now I can't recall what problems I was having at that time. But did re-format and re-load and all seemed to be fine. Then last week I began losing various files...first my internet service couldn't be found so I re-installed. Then my printer could not be found so I re-installed, then no mouse detected so I re-installed. Today had tiny green rectangle showing on my screen and I had no sound. Re-installed sound drivers and sound is back AND when system did the restart the little green rectangle had disappeared. My virus program and definitions are up to date as of Feb 10th. Also did two on-line virus scans at PC Pitstop and Panda. All show a clean system. Spent several hours on the phone with a Very Knowledgeable Tech at Gateway, he had me run numerous checks and tests including removing memory card etc. Nothing showed. Have had this system 18 months. Right after I purchased it the hard drive failed and Gateway replaced it and I installed it. Last winter I purchased and installed the CD-R drive from Gateway and about four months later it literally exploded a CD and Gateway sent me a new drive. Don't know if any of this is connected with the current problem or not. I love this computer, it is fast and generally works great. ANY Suggestions? In reference to post from Michael, ScanReg has been run and has shown no errorsRead More
