That is a different style laptop, BUT
Yes both connections of the video cable are secure. Removing some of the wrap that goes around it, shows a bare wire, but it looks like its supposed to be that way. I think anyways.
Tore the whole thing apart this morning in frustration.
But I found an inverter on ebay for $7 shipped and ordered it. Once that arrives I will try it, and if that doesn't fix it, I'm going to attempt to replace the cfl bulb/backlight.
