I installed an AOpen ATSC Hybrid Mini card tuner in my IFL90 and it works great except that I don't have the built in cables and connectors under the sticker by the power plug. The antenna lead that came with it is about 3"(75mm) too short, so I have the lead coming out of the CPU cover on the bottom. Does anyone know where I could buy the factory cables and connectors? Or a source for longer antenna leads, it needs to be about 9" or 230mm long?

I don't understand why you don't have the right cables (size and existence), the white notebook come equipped for accomodating all the modules, perhaps the S-Video cable if barried somewhere and the antenna cable is stock and you have to pull it, anyway is going to be difficult to find those cables, I do have a web site for that, I'll send to you as soon as I find it again, is SD Sweden?

No it is Mt. Rushmore land, South Dakota, USA. I just bought it from excalibrepc.com, here's what it was labled as: ASI NB WB CBB FL90+ TPM 15.4WXGA+ 965PM 512MB VRAM 9CELL S R [ SKU: IFL90120015 ]. There are 2 holes under the sticker and no cables inside that I could see. I did get the riser bracket to hold it above the wireless card. Just rechecked and there are no cables tucked in or under anything. I don't think the AOpen card was made for this laptop and that is why the cable is too sort. Thanks for you help.

I'm talking about the cables from the s-video and the antenna connectors, those cables should be inside the laptop somewhere. If they are not there, see the the picture of the cables of my laptop. I'll send you the web site shortly.

No, those are definitely not there. The 3 for the wireless are there, but that is all. At the time when I was looking for this laptop, a few sellers had it listed and when I went to buy buy one they said they were sent back for some reason, but never said why. Excalibrepc.com still had some, so I bought one. Could they have been recalled because of missing TV wires and connectors?
-
Not a chance, I think the reason is something else. They have been reworking the IFL90/FL90 to accomodate the Penryn new processor from Intel. The new platform for Penryn is not yet available (JFL92), so I think that's the reason why they have recalled them.
I apologize for my insistance, but I would call your vendor and ask them where are the cables, they should be there barried somewhere.
I have to go to my desktop computer to find the link, I'll do it as soon as I can. -
If he doest even have the antenna and s-video port no wonder he dooesnt have the required cables... But isn't the fl90 whitebook supposed to come with those?
-
UPDATE: Wirelessman is right. I contacted the the vendor and they want me to return it. Whoever supplied it to ExcaliberPC.com said it should have the missing parts and it was probably a screw up from the factory. Any way I'm getting a different one, hopefully with all of the parts. Thanks for the advice everyone.
