    PowerBook 100 display, LCD_VEE issue but inductors ok?

    Hi, this is my first post so I apologize if I'm breaking any rules, please let me know. My friend bought a non-functional PowerBook 100; after fully cleaning and recapping, it turns on the backlight, chimes, and makes Mac OS sounds when pressing keys. However, the screen is completely blank...
