    I have a lenovo 3000 N100 for about 2 years ....
    It worked really fine for the 1st yr .....

    A few months back ,it started giving out smoke (seemed to be coming from the connector between the Lcd and the board) after continuous use of >3-4hrs .I used to power off manually by holding the power button and it used to start again perfectly after given a rest of an hour or so :rolleyes:

    But now the backlight is completely gone .....the display still is there but no backlight making it non-readable... :confused:

    I opened up the Lcd cover to find the Lcd cable ( joining the board with the lcd ) burnt .... :eek: ...

    Has anyone of you encountered this before and is the LCD cable easily replacable ... :(

    It's only been 3 hours. Please follow the forum rules and allow at least 24 hours before bumping your thread.

    Have you tried contacting Lenovo about the issue? Are you still under warranty? Maybe they can sell you a separate LCD cable.
