    I so abused my other laptop too, it was left on for about 2 years never being turned off... It also got dropped twice (and survived both times!) Not a mark on the screen, just some quite nasty looking scratches on the underside. That's it.

    Although the screen does seem to have gone a bit dim compared to this laptop's screen. I do recall my other laptop having a very bright screen when I first got it. It's not too badly noticeable though.

    I bought mine from an ex co-worker.

    She had bought a new Mac Book ( ) and abandoned this poor thing.

    Ive been trying for 2 weeks to get this damn thing to display on my TV via s-Video to RCA, with no luck.

    Even bought a 7-pin to 4-pin converter...

    I got some RCA to yellow video cable out with an old graphics card, same port fits into the other laptop's video out port. Never used/tried that feature though as I'm assuming it doesn't output video higher than 640x480?

    i have no idea.

    I tried lowering the res all the way down, tried maxing it out.

    I go into the display properties, right click the 2nd monitor, click attached, hit apply, and the 2nd monitor thing just goes back to greyed out and the Tv flickers.
