You can make damn near any computer fine again with different parts. New board, cpu, ram, hd, ect. The case is just a shell.
part of the problem was the motherboard i had was wierd...the IDE chain was incredibly ass-backwards...and my power supply was very tired...i dont think my HD was getting sufficient power...i checked to make sure the caps werent bulging near the processor...that was fine...alot of old stuff though...
yea, the laptop took a spill last night...now the screen is a bit messed up...all the colors are whacked. it may be just the screen...everything else seems fine. graphics are messed up and i no likey
Simple test, hook the laptop video (15 pin looking port likely blue in color) to a monitor. If it works its just the LCD video.
Look for this to hook a monitor to... If the monitor you hook up to that port looks fine then video on laptop is good its would then just be an issue with the LCD This is a LCD part of the laptop.
