WTB: t42 m10 long fan and ati 9600 mobo
WTB: t42 m10 long fan and ati 9600 mobo
Trying to repair my old t42, display stays blank when turning on. Probably the gpu issue.

I wouldn't jump to this conclusion so fast. It can just as likely be a display/inverter/fuse problem.

Hi and thanks for the reply.
You are right but it does have most of the symptoms:
Yesterday it worked fine and I went through all the built in stress testing in the bios (whatever that does), and it went for more than 3 hours, then when I tried to boot from a recovery cd it turned off the lcd.
The only thing that it doesn't have is that it won't boot when pressing on the gpu, or at all for that matter.
You are right but it does have most of the symptoms:
- When it did boot it would freeze on the login screen after typing a bit, then unfreeze 30sec later
- It won't boot to an external display
- It used to work once in a while and turn off lcd when moved (this was 3 years ago).
