LCD computer screens

[Vultch]

To the forum that knows everything...

I bought a secondhand LCD screen of ebay....to try to fix an computer (broken scren)were the screen is part of the computer..an all in one affair. (Apple iMac G4)

After swapping screens (this is not just one connector but 4 inside the machine)
The screen fires up but has a very red tinge...flickers a bit on start up...is the screen on its way out or have i the wrong part and its not being driven properly by the machine. different circuitary inside the beast...

Thanks in advance

Maybe it's the reason it was for sale, it's already been replaced in another mac cause it was fooked.

Thought about that..i got the whole mac, the motherboard was ...dead..just wondering if different screens were used as this mac seems older...

I dunno mate, I have a new iMac, an old eMac and a G4 titanium laptop.
how much did you shell out for the screen?

This guy in Tranent might be worth a call
