After looking for any (visible) issues with the power board, I've still found
nothing (visibly) wrong with it. Since I can find them online relatively easily,
I think I will buy one, since they are realatively cheap to find online,
and I don't want to go through more hassle to get it back up and running.
I know someone who has a 770z, that works, so I'm first going to try out his
power board to see if it's actually the issue. As for the (most likely) bad
LCD inverter, I will also borrow one from my friend to see if it works,
the only problem is that I still can't find any of these online. Searching on Ebay
something like "Thinkpad 770 lcd inverter" only brings up LCD inverters for
other ThinkPads. I've been able to find it on Thinkpcparts, but they're
completely out of stock. I've checked the HDD caddy for any pins stuck
in it, which there are none. Oh, and if the HDD functionality still doesn't work
with a new, or at least working, power board, I will do a more thorough check
on the system board.
