Could be a screen cable problem. If you squeeze the frame between thumb
and finger (I think on the left) about two thirds up, you may find the
screen magically fixes itself. Happened to my old lombard some years
ago and its apparently a known problem.

Thanks for your reply. The screen is 90% of the time covered with
stripey colours. Sometimes, at a certain angle, I get the desktop, but
most of the time just a colour spectrum. Your link doesnt seem to be
working. do you still think it would be a cheap thing to fix?

It sounds like that if you can see the screen at angles or out in the
sun or under light that your backlight has gone out it is a fairly
cheap part to replace as you can see

that one is for the lg display pismo and is in US prices of

Can I use a TV to view my G3 Powerbook desktop?
The monitor screen has just about died (stupid apple) and now I want
to
be able to use the computer through my TV.
Some times, at a certain angle, I can see the screen;
I have the adaptor cable for video in/out, but how can I set the
monitor control panel up for the external tv screen? The monitor
control
panel doesnt have any options of this kind, and there is limitted help
in the apple help tuits. Or am I supposed to tune the TV INTO the
powerbook (ie the other way round)??
OS 9.2.2, G3 Lombard Powerbook, 230RAM
Please help!!!!
