hi there

i recently bought an imac g5 isight 17inch from ebay, the display isnt connected to the logic board, the logic board isnt screwed in but i have the screws

.when i plug the psu in and turn it on, i get the fan noise and the light at the front but no image as the display isnt plugged in...

i had a brainwave and decided to buy a mini vga to vga cable to test if it was working anyway... i received it today and plugged the cables in and i had the same problem, fan sound, no display...

now, i am wondering if the logic board has blown or is it a problem that the logic board isnt screwed in? i need some help on what screws/screwdrivers i need!

PLEASE! PLEASE! PLEASE! PLEASE! PLEASE! PLEASE! PLEASE! PLEASE! PLEASE! HELP ME!
