    Hi,

    Well i finally replaced my Laptop's LCD.. but unfortonately the problem is still there, i mean the LCD is still black, something like off...

    I got my laptop to work with an external monitor. So i think the GPU is fine.


    when i sent my laptop to the technical servide, they told me my problem was a bad LCD, but they were wrong.

    I am pretty sure the LCD flex cable y ok, and the inverter is ok too.. (all the problem started when i changed the thermal paste once)

    I thought the problem was the LCD, becauses one chip looks weird, in the Old lcd.. i let you a picture

    If you see, the chip seems to be burned, or something.. but that was not the problem...

    Is possible the motherboard failed?
