Mac Forum / General / Portable Macs / September 2005

I have already replaced the motherboard to no effect, and just finished
replacing the entire lid/display unit, but still have no video.  My
backlight works, and I reset the Power Manager (I know it's not called that,
but I can't remember what it IS called) with
shift/control/option/command/delete while pressing and holding the interrupt
button in back, but no change.  I have *tried* resetting the PRAM with
option/command/P/R but all that happens is the PB seems to go to sleep (no
chime, screen goes dark and "sleep" indicator light on front of lid comes
on.)  It seems to boot and shut down just fine, there's just no video.  What
am I not doing?  Anyone have any ideas?  Please, someone help me.  I am at
my wit's end with this turkey.  I have written an entire kid's book (65K
words) and was ready to query my next target when the video when out.  Now I
can't get anything off of it until I can see what's on it again.  Fix this
and I will be yours forever.

TIA
