My 600E's screen went out!

#1 Post by jamiphar » Mon Aug 14, 2006 11:53 pm

I had opened up my machine to have another good look at the layout (not the first time I've done this), and when I get the thing back together and power up, the lcd won't go on! I really don't know how I could've damaged anything and I've double-checked the connections. Any ideas on what to do?

Hehe, I had removed the fan and heatsink and must've dislodged the CPU board a little. I pressed it back in and it worked fine. :)
