    Ok so i have that wierd problem with my ECS G731 laptop (some rare laptop aka Winbook J4 and Northagte G731)
    I was trying to plug an Lcd from my dead ECS G732 into that used ECS G731 motherboard I got. When i turn on the laptop, it looks like there is power going to the lcd, cause there is a light coming from it but there is nothign displayed...

    I tried to put my computer screen using the vga cable into my laptop and it was working ok.

    I know the lcd is good and has no problem since it was working perfectly in the ECS G732...

    So there is 2 answer to my problem:

    1. Eighter the Lcd from g732 doesnt work with g731 (but i doubt it since they have both the same jack from the power and one for the information to display)
    2. Eighter the jack in the motherboard for the information to display is broken.

    So I was asking my self if there is such thing that can convert the cable from the lcd to a vga cable so i can plug it in the vga jack in the laptop

    ...its a lil complicate dto understand but lemme know if u can help!?!?
