WILL A 2CCFL LCD WORK WITH THE PRESARIO X1000 (X1010us)?

Hiya!

The LCD screen of my Presario x1000 shows two colored vertical lines (red and blue). This, as i've come to understand, indicates the LCD's going bad, but, it still is usable. Just with two very thin lines showing.

I recently chanced upon a working LCD from a friend, taken out from his laptop. The mobo died.

Anyhoo, the LCD is a Samsung LTN154XB-L01, which boasts the same specs as the original LG-Philips LP154W01 LCD that came with the x1000 (screen size, resolution, number of pins, etc), minus one point: The Samsung LTN154XB-L01 has 2CCFL backlights, while the original only has one.

Will this work with the Presario x1000 with no issues?

If, say, the original inverter (1 CCFL power out) is used, and only one CCFL tube is plugged to the Samsung LTN154XB-L01, will this operate seamlessly?

My friend failed to give me the inverter with came with his laptop, a Viao. And, though I'm sure about the input pins of the Samsung LCD, i'm not sure if  its GPU to LCD male/female socket connector is the same with the Presario.

Does anyone have any experience in something related to this?

gutchak,

I don't know the answer to your question, but I have a complete LCD for the x1000.  Lid, inverter, cables, everything, all working when I replaced it.

It should be an easy install.

It's a 1280x800.  I replaced it with a 1980x1200 screen.

PM me if you're interested in buying it.  I can send you pics.

I really appreciate this forum still being available.  I still use my x1050 and have a X1020 as a spare.
