and please.. turn off your caps lock..
macman is trying to help..
and i happen to agree.. your card is going, if not gone
my bad, heres the situation, my buddy had the laptop, he went to turn it on one day and he screen just wouldnt go on,,,, he needed stuff off of it so he took it to some repair shop, and the guy took files off it and told him the computer worked fine except for the screen, but said it would cost as much to repair as its worth (but i figure a 12" g4 powerbooks gotta be worth some dough),,, so he gave it to me, i bought the s video cable, couldnt get it to work,, i bought the VGA DISPLAY ADAPTER, and connected to an old monitor i got, no luck, tried my dell monitor, no luck,, it just turned them down. but like on a rare occasion, youll turn it on and the scren will be working, so im wondering if something is just going loose, but hope its what you say, the graphics card, but i dont want to buy a new one and have the scren not work.
thanks for all your time both macman and thelox
