Question about laptops...

[gustafa75]

Hello,
I am new to fixing laptops, well anyways my buddy brought me his laptop to see if I could fix it. Well it turns out that I really don't know alot about them. He is having video problems like no video at all, he opened it up and messed with a little computer board in the LCD lid and broke something. Can anyone help me identify this component and where I may get a new one? The computer information is as follows:

Fujitsu Lifebook C-Series
Model 6581

LCD Information
Display is Chi Mei Optoelectronics Corp N141x201
Broken Part says NMB IM4502 CP093464-05 05C
D1514

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks,
Gus

The little board that he "broke" is known as a power inverter for the LCD screen. It allows for backlighting to the screen. These parts are generally the culprits for laptop screen issues, and cost ~$60 to replace.

I'm having some trouble finding a site that carries that particular inverter, though. You might try contacting Fujitsu...
