    Hello all,
    I have not found a dv5000 LCD that will work with my dv5000 motherboard (system board #30A7,BIOS Ver. F.25)that has an Intel chipset & nVidia 7400 graphics and an Intel Core Duo T2500 2.000GHz SL8VP Socket M processor . I've tried LCDs that came from other dv5000s with Intel chipsets & Intel graphics.All I get is a blank screen. I can get the screen functions working such as pressing fn key + F8 for brightness,but that's all. I've tried different RAM brands.External monitors have worked with no issues.I'm guessing it's the LCD brand or a special LCD cable.

    It should be noted that in BIOS, there is a UUID #, BUT no Serial Number.

    Any ideas?

    TIA
