[P1] What's wrong with friend's iBook?

[Ed Wiser]

Sound's like the video card cable to the mother board has been pinched. On
the left side of the iBook is the video cable which sends the video card out
put to the
LCD screen. On the right side of the LCD screen is the back light cable.
Either one can get pinched and cause problems. I had the backlight cable
problem.
Check out the Apple ibook display section. This is a common problem with
iBooks as you will soon find out.
