Hello, G'thang People... Awhile back, I was lucky enough to get a huge amount of Wallstreet parts from a tech friend of mine who was blowing out his inventory. He warned me some of the stuff was broken....
Anyway, I managed to put together about 2 working Wallstreet (I and II) laptops, and they are great! Up until that time, I had not gone past the 1400/166, and I used as my main laptop (and still use it today!) an ancient Duo 2300c. Anyway, now as I sort thru the parts that are either broken or need attention, I notice that MANY of the Wallstreet logic boards seem to have display problems; either with showing a pic on the LCD or on an external monitor (thru the monitor port or the S-video port). What gives? Several boards are labled "no backlight on LCD." Others simply show nothing on the LCD (a 14.4"), even as the laptop is running. And still others show nothing ont he LCD or on any external source. My question is: outside of the 13.3 LCD problems, is losing the logic board display ability an inherent problem w/ the Wallstreets? As old and s-l-o-w as the G1 and G2 Powerbooks are, I never came across so many mobo/lo'bo issues w/ displays! Craig W. Hot-Lanta, GA -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
