It might also be the backlight board that goes if the backlight in general
seems to have gone bye-bye.
My problem is that the screen is fully lit, but it's all white pixels and
no image, at all.
If one's backlight goes, it'll be the opposite, a black / dark screen.
You'll still be able to see an image if you shine a bright light right over
your shoulder on teh screen.
If that's the case, good news, the bulb and or the backlight board is what
died, Those are cheap (compared to a whole screen) and the board is super
easy to replace. If I can get a busted libretto, I'll be able to spare
parts sell to ya cheap to fix yours up, buT i have to find one withagood
screen first. :(
