MP 120 broken screen?
Posted by: Anonymous on 2016-12-13 19:52:33
As the title says, I think my screen is broken. The entire half of the screen (vertically) is blue but the other side is fine. Any fixes?

Blue?

Yep

Weird. Its a grayscale screen. Not sure why any portion of it would be blue.

I assumed a screen repair would fix it but I wanted to look around for a solution first

Not unusual, the powerbook 100 will display a blue screen also when capacitors are shot.

I must have several of the underlying screens (the one below the surface glass) for either the MP120 or 130, bought in a lot by mistake when looking for one for a MP2000. They are still here somewhere.... I could dig them out and check further if interested — in which case, PM with your email.
