Hello,

I have a Alpha R Pro laptop from novatech, i fixed the origional problem which was the harddrive was failing constantly, the screen was broken and the graphics card was broken.

I braught a new harddrive and replaced the old one, i got a new graphics card for NovaTech and fitted it my self and braught a used screen off ebay and fitted that my self.

It worked started up correctly and so on. Then i noticed i forgot to put in two screws, on the back of the laptop where the VGA socket and that normaly is, so i put these screws in and now the laptop will start up but the screen will display only they light lines going down the screen.

I have opened up the laptop and took a look and the screws i forgot to origonaly put back in are only there to hold some bits of the plastic case together nothing else.

I have checked the screen ribbon cable and it is plugged into the screen and graphics card correctly, i have also reinstalled the old graphics card, but instead of getting the lines i get a white screen, but this is probs becuase of that graphcis card already be broken.

Is it possible the monitor ribbon cable is broken and needs replacing?

Thank you,
Shane Rutter
