Re: OT: Inverter Board Question
It's a flat screen TV. It turns out it is the actual screen. Thanks for the help though. -Jonas -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.

I think this is a fine place for that question. However, if you don't get the information you need, you might try sci.electronics.repair over on Usenet.

Re: OT: Inverter Board Question
I don't know what it is that you are referring to, laptop/monitor etc) So this is general advice: The inverter powers the backlight and so would only be responsible for issues relating to that. Are the lines identical and vertical? Are they coloured red, blue, or white? If so, then it is likely to be a faulty ribbon that connects the LCD panel. If it's horizontal lines appearing on the laptop screen the fault may be a poor connection between video cable and LCD screen, a faulty video cable or LCD screen failure. Try connecting it to an external display, if the problem persists, then it is almost certainly your graphics chip. . -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.

OT: Inverter Board Question
Hi all, quick question here. Can a faulty inverter board cause distortion to appear on parts of a screen? Almost looks like a bunch of close together lines, that causes whatever is displayed in that part of the screen to be distorted. This only appears after a few seconds of the screen being powered on. I realize this is a little off topic, but I didn't know were else to ask this question. Thanks in advance! -- -Jonas -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
