I picked up this iBook G4 12" 1.07 from a friend of mine as an organ donor for my PB 12"(switched the LCDs) It had a dead hard drive in it and I supposed it was suffering from the logic board problems, but the screen lights up and stays in grey. It will hook up to a VGA screen and runs fine with that. My question is: if it was indeed the video chip that was unseated would it display on the VGA at all? Is this a cable problem? Could it just be the cable running from the logicboard to the display that is chewed up(possibly in the hinge area)?
I popped it open and tried to see if the connector on the logic board was loose, but that didn't help.
Anybody had this problem?
