Some questions, first I have added airport cards, ram, HDs, upgrade cards keyboards to pismos and other computers, so just enough experience to really make a mess, so I ask. As I go through the steamy jungle of DON'T touch that gizmo on your Pismo, thought I would ask for some help, ideas, or whatever
I have a complete lower half of a Pismo less the processor. I have another Pismo that was reported as the MB being dead
[snip] 4. Anyone have a good site that describes removing and adding a screen to the Pismo, I have some photos but not real descriptive. I will have to remove the old screen from the defective Pismo and put it on the new lower half. This does not require replacing the plastics around the screen, just unhooking the cable, getting at the hinges and removing the old and adding it to the new, Now if I knew how to do that.
[snip] Well thanks for any help. Geoff
The hardest part is taking out the cover at the back of the keyboard (has the power button and sleep light). I use a large paper clip, straightened out but with a little L-shaped hook on the end. You have to pull the plastic towards the trackpad on each side. The clip is just to the right of the power button and about the same place on the left side. It takes a pretty good pull to knock it loose. After that, unplug the inverter and mainboard connections, remove the four torx #8 screws inside the back cover, and lift the screen assy out.
