I got myself into a bit of a mess...
I'm aiming to replace the lcd on an older compaq laptop. I bought a replacement screen, but the ribbon connectors don't match. Anyone know laptop LCDs well?
The new screen model number I have the LG electronics LP133X7 (2PIB) and the old broken one I'm attempting to replace was the LP133X7 (C2CC). The old ribbon is labelled DDOHS1LC115 and unfortunately it doesn't fit into the new LCD I bought (slightly smaller pin). Can I buy a ribbon that will be compatible?
Also, I know that a micro-soldering job is possible to modify the connection. Anyone know where in the 416 area I can get this done? Any other solutions?
Any help would be appreciated!
