Due to a broken lcd screen, I am changing it out with another one i bought. My laptop is a lenovo thinkpad t61. However, when i hooked up the new screen and turned on my laptop i can't see anything. The screen lights up, but it remains black.
Therefore, I am wondering is if is possible that a laptop that had an xga screen be compatible with a wxga screen (the one i bought is wxga 14.1 inch)? thanks alot.
You are asking if you were to purchase a LCD panel for a laptop that was not an exact replacement, are there reasons why it would not work? Yes, there are reasons why it might not work.
It is PROBABLE that the WXGA screen you purchased for your laptop is incompatible with the Thinkpad t61 that you bought. Did your laptop originally have a WXGA+ (1440x900 resolution) or a WXGA (1280x800 resolution)? You need to make sure that the screen you replace the broken one with, is an exact replacement. That model was not supposed to come with an XGA (1024x768 resolution) screen.
