[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1336524, member: 46727"] I think you're on the right track. I have one of those Toshiba notebooks (still working) but have not dug on down to the motherboard. I've swapped out the hard drive and worked on the optical drive several times though. Take a close look at the cabling from the LCD down through the hinge area on to the MB. Make sure everything is orientated correctly and not being pinched off. Do a google search and see if you can locate a service manual for that model. If I remember correctly, the service manual covers that model and several others. You may have to pay for the manual. If you're lucky, you may be able to find a PDF copy that can be downloaded. And forget about going to the Toshiba site. :) [/QUOTE]
