he can plug a different display into whatever logic board he has. All PBs 190/5300 have the same logic board connector, so while each different LCD type's cable is unique, all cables share the same type logic-board-end connector.
Yes! I tried and realized that **any** 5300 can use **any** display.
Now the problem is:
I have a non working (bad logic board) 19 and a working 5300ce whose screen does not work (I can only use the external monitor).
Since the screen appears to be ok I wanted to try to put the 5300ce screen and its logic board into the 190.
So the question is:
can I use the 190 display cable? If not where can I find one?
Thanks, guys!
Ben
PS. What about the the PB 100 list? I cannot get to re-subscribe.
I'm positive that any 190/5300 can use a B/W or color passive display.
However (IIRC) only a 5300 logic board with 1MB vram can use a TFT display. Hmmm, _do_ I recall that correctly? Anyone, anyone . . . ?
