[QUOTE="parasbuy, post: 1600397, member: 189066"] Unfortunately, my pockets have holes in 'em... mostly from the amount of money I've spent on this thing! ;) Thanks for the Craig's List suggestion... will def. look at picking another up as a second display. As far as this one, I was thinking about the ball of solder that fell out and thought it was odd. I figured it was possible that it might have been knocked off of a joint somewhere from the power surge.... quality Apple product, I know, but it would explain why the Pro was working fine and the display is doing nothing. Sure enough, one of the coils on the backside of the Power Supply Board had a big gob of solder on it and the lead next to it looked as if it might have been missing one. So, took a crack at soldering a new gob on the lead, closed it up, and it cranked up! ...love it when a plan comes together, [chomping on a cigar] ...an A-Team reference, for those keeping track.
