Hi,
I hope this is the right forum, I opened one of our iMac 27" to replace the hard drive because it failed. I had my coworker hold the LCD while i was putting the hard drive. The LCD jerked from him and the display port cable became unattached, when i looked closer two of the pins were broken. How do i fix that, i researched to replace the motherboard and found that it cost more than the Mac. I have a photo attached, to show what i am talking about. I also researched the display port cable but i am not sure if that comes with the connector. here is a link http://www.macpartsonline.com/922-9...ore2duo-intel-i5-i7-imac-late-2009-a1312.html Please help if anyone knows about it, I need to have this fixed before our video editor gets back from vacation and finds out that the Mac is broken. I really appreciate it, thanks in advance for any replies.

Hey thank you very much! It saved my life, but i found that the part is Obsolete and it is not available. I don't know what to do now.
