After swapping the screens i tested everything was ok before re fitting the plastic casing and after a couple of attmepts (powering on and off), the screen came to life and also on an external monitor i connected to it. I refitted the casing and now when i power on nothing appears either on the laptop or on the external monitor. The power light comes on and the HD light flashes acouple of times on the laptop but that's it. In your experience are you aware of replacing a laptop screen leading to such problems. Any Help would be appreciated Thanks Hi
