T41: LCD is yellowish and drop out of wireless

#1 Post by manteiv » Sun Sep 05, 2010 8:01 am

The display of my T41 has a yellowish cast and a couple splots of some light bleed at the bottom edge. The light bleed is most noticeable on black bacground. Is-it the inverter or the LCD backlight that I need to change?

My second question is I have frequent drop out of the wireless (Cisco Aironet 350 mini pci card). The connect is rock solid and every so often it would drop and I have to disconnect the connection and reconnect it. I recently reflow the ATI chip and the Intel Southbridge and wonder if the reflow has anything to do with the drop out?

T41 2374-7FU running Windows 7

Let it die...it's time :). Try a different WiFi card. Preferably something like an Intel 2200bg card. For the backlight bleed you'll most likely have to replace the entire LCD panel to fix that.
