Will presario 1200 screen work on a presario 1688 notebook.
Hi, I have a compaq presario 1688 with a screen that has lines on the
upper part of the screen. I also have 1200 with a good screen that I can use for parts to replace the screen and was just wondering if the 1200 parts comatible with the 1688. Just wondering if anybody replaced a 1688 screen with an older presario screen. Thanks in advance. Mike |

Thanks for the reply but I appreciate someone that has tried to do this
or atleast knows if this is possible, not taking a guess that is might not be possible. HH wrote: Doubt seriously that they arecompatible. HH "lifewaveenergymike" wrote in message oups.com...

Just wondering if anybody replaced a 1688 screen with an older presario screen. Thanks in advance. Mike HH is not "guessing". Every laptop mainboard is designed to function with a given set of LCD displays. Many new laptops have an 8bit switch that can be set for more than one display with different characteristics, but these LCDs are predetermined when the mainboard is designed and manufactured. The components of the display that are critical are the inverter, the CCFL, any processor that is attached to the video driver (some are on the display itself). There are many variations of these components. You could get lucky, but the 1200 series predates the 1688 and there is likely no commonality that will allow the older display to function on a later laptop. You are certainly free to do the research yourself and report your findings for the world to see. Q |
