    Hi Guys,

    My sister has a Sony Vaio VGN-FW41J that won't start. When I click on power button, I can see the led blinking green for 1-2 seconds, but then it won't start. I checked the power with a multimeter and I can say that power arrives to the motherboard (19,5V).

    She told me that for a while she had some problems with the monitor: if she moved the lcd panel, it became black, as if it was a bad contact. I try to unplug all the 3 connectors of the lcd panel but the result was the same.

    What could be the problem? faulty motherboard??

    Thanks in advance and sorry for my english
