Okay, it's been a while since I checked, but 'simultaneous' is the best one
to go for. But at least the video circuits are fine and the mobo is (at

Most likely option is the fluorescent or the driver circuit then. You might
be able to see some pics on the screen by very bright reflected light. I
think the instructions for swapping the screen light are in the manual you

'sorry, too late...'
