Subject: Re: Replacing 70CT LCD
That doesn't look good...is there anything coming out of the video port on
the 70 through an extender? Is the 70 making booting noises at all? Is it
possible that it's been set to 'external' video only? does the screen light
up black when it's turned on (look in a dark room)?
